Samsung’s contract chip manufacturing division has won a new customer in the name of a Canadian startup called Tenstorrent, which develops chips with artificial intelligence technologies.
Tenstorrent is among the startups trying to compete with Nvidia, which dominates the artificial intelligence chip market. The company produces chips for data centers but is also working on delivery to other markets, including automotive.
As part of the deal, Tenstorrent plans to use one of Samsung’s advanced manufacturing processes (4 nanometers) to produce the chips. Some of Tenstorrent’s chips are built using a technology known as RISC-V, an open-source semiconductor architecture that rivals Arm and x86. However, the chip that Samsung will produce is called Quasar and is not based on RISC-V technology.
“Tenstorrent’s mission is to develop high-performance computing and deliver these solutions to customers around the world,” Tenstorrent CEO Jim Keller said in a statement.
Legendary processor developer Jim Keller joined Tenstorrent as CTO in December 2020 and became CEO in January 2023.
