Owner The company that specified the chip and runs it in its own cloud, data centers or products.

Microsoft 1

Role What the owner says the chip is for: training, inference, both, or a general-purpose server CPU.

Training and inference 1

Foundry The fab that manufactures the die (TSMC, Samsung, SMIC, Intel).

TSMC 2

Node Process node as the owner or foundry states it, for example 'TSMC N3' or '7 nm'.

TSMC 5nm 1

Memory On-package memory type (HBM2e, HBM3, HBM3E, LPDDR5) or, for CPUs, the memory the socket drives (DDR5).

HBM2E 2

Memory capacity GB On-package memory per chip in GB. Blank for CPUs, whose memory sits off-package.

64 2

Precision note What the throughput figures mean: dense or sparse, which precision, per chip or per package, and any figure the owner states only in another unit.

Supports 9-bit and 6-bit compute; about 500 MB L1/L2 cache; 12x 400GbE network. 700 W TDP part, run at 500 W in production for inference (ServeTheHome). 2

Power W Chip or package power in watts as published (TDP, TBP or typical power; the source says which).

700 2

Status Announced: public roadmap without verified deployment. Sampling: first silicon or limited internal use. Preview: customers can request early access, without a GA claim. Deployed: stated production use or general availability. Discontinued: program stopped.

Deployed 2

Announced Year the owner first announced the chip publicly.

2,023 1

How to get it How an outside buyer can use the chip: a named cloud instance or service, a product, or 'Internal only'.
