BrainChip Brings Neuromorphic Capabilities to M.2 Form Factor
January 08 2025 - 11:00AM
Business Wire
BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the
world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully
digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI, today announced the
availability of its Akida™ advanced neural networking processor on
the M.2 form factor, enabling a low-cost, high-speed and low-power
consumption option for those looking to build their own edge AI
boxes.
BrainChip’s neural processor Al IP is an event-based technology
that is inherently lower power when compared to conventional neural
network accelerators. BrainChip IP supports incremental learning
and high-speed inference in a wide variety of use cases, such as
convolutional neural networks with high throughput and unsurpassed
performance in low power budgets. The AKD1000-powered boards can be
plugged into the M.2 slot – around the size of a stick of gum, with
a power budget of about 1 watt – to unlock capabilities for a wide
array of edge AI applications where space and power is limited and
speed is critical, including industrial, factory service centers,
network access devices and more.
“BrainChip’s AKD1000 chips and boards are available today for
industry evaluation, development, proof of concept and
demonstration platforms with the IP available to license for
integration into SoCs. Releasing the AKD1000 on the M.2 form factor
continues our commitment to aid developers in creating AI solutions
with our Akida IP,” said Sean Hehir, BrainChip CEO. “By providing
neuromorphic developers access to Akida via M.2, we can expand
their options for proof-of-concept designs with streaming sensors
at the edge.”
BrainChip’s AKD1000 product is available in both B+M Key and E
Key configurations of the M.2 2260 form factor. It can be purchased
integrated into stand-alone Raspberry PI or Edge AI box enclosures,
or for integration into custom designed products. Pricing starts at
$249. Visit shop.brainchipinc.com or the Buy Now button at

About BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR:
BCHPY) BrainChip is the worldwide leader in Edge AI on-chip
processing and learning. The company’s first-to-market, fully
digital, event-based AI processor, Akida™, uses neuromorphic
principles to mimic the human brain, analyzing only essential
sensor inputs at the point of acquisition, processing data with
unparalleled efficiency, precision, and economy of energy. Akida
uniquely enables Edge learning locally to the chip, independent of
the cloud, dramatically reducing latency while improving privacy
and data security. Akida Neural processor IP, which can be designed
into SoCs on any process technology, has shown substantial benefits
on today’s workloads and networks, and offers a platform for
developers to create, tune and run their models using standard AI
workflows like Tensorflow/Keras. In enabling effective Edge compute
to be universally deployable across real world applications such as
connected cars, consumer electronics, and industrial IoT, BrainChip
is proving that on-chip AI, close to the sensor, is the future, for
its customers’ products, as well as the planet. Explore the
