Quadric

Quadric is a semiconductor IP company based in Burlingame, California that licenses the Chimera GPNPU (general-purpose neural processing unit) processor IP and its accompanying software stack for on-device and edge AI inference. The Chimera architecture unifies scalar, vector, and matrix compute in a single fully C++ programmable core so both AI graph operators and classic DSP/C++ code run on one pipeline, giving SoC designers a future-proof target for evolving model roadmaps. Quadric ships a developer toolchain rather than a hosted web API: the cloud-based DevStudio portal, the Chimera SDK (ONNX import from PyTorch and TensorFlow), the ChiPy Python programming interface, an LLVM-based C++ extensibility path, and an instruction-set simulator for pre-silicon performance modeling. This profile catalogs Quadric's developer surface for the API Evangelist network.

Quadric is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Semiconductors, and Processor IP.

Quadric’s developer surface includes documentation, signup flow, engineering blog, support, and 6 more developer resources.
