Toward Open-Source Chiplets for HPC and AI: Occamy and Beyond

Hardware Architecture 2025-11-20 v1

Abstract

We present a roadmap for open-source chiplet-based RISC-V systems targeting high-performance computing and artificial intelligence, aiming to close the performance gap to proprietary designs. Starting with Occamy, the first open, silicon-proven dual-chiplet RISC-V manycore in 12nm FinFET, we scale to Ramora, a mesh-NoC-based dual-chiplet system, and to Ogopogo, a 7nm quad-chiplet concept architecture achieving state-of-the-art compute density. Finally, we explore possible avenues to extend openness beyond logic-core RTL into simulation, EDA, PDKs, and off-die PHYs.
