TL;DR

A 275mm2 network-on-chip architecture contains 80 tiles arranged as a 10 times 8 2D array of floating-point cores and packet-switched routers, operating at 4GHz, designed to achieve a peak performance of 1.0TFLOPS at 1V while dissipating 98W.

Abstract

A 275mm 2 network-on-chip architecture contains 80 tiles arranged as a 10 times 8 2D array of floating-point cores and packet-switched routers, operating at 4GHz. The 15-F04 design employs mesochronous clocking, fine-grained clock gating, dynamic sleep transistors, and body-bias techniques. The 65nm 100M transistor die is designed to achieve a peak performance of 1.0TFLOPS at 1V while dissipating 98W.
