SMARTMEM Radiation Tolerant RISC-V for Sensor Nodes and On-Board Processing using embedded MRAM

Numem a Silicon Valley semiconductor startup founded in 2016 has been leading design and development of NuRAM Smart Compute Memory based on MRAM technology with proven silicon and over 30+ test chips. Numem has pioneered smart compute memory with in-memory computing. This enables processing efficiency and ultra-low power with the memory capable of processing data while the rest of the SOC is in sleep mode. The Numem team is comprised of senior executives from Broadcom with significant experience in memory, analog and SOC designs as well as Computational SW automation. Numem’s NuRAM is running on advanced process nodes at the 2 largest foundries. Numem aims to add advanced capabilities to US Air Force program with a Scalable, Low Power and High-Performance Processing Sensor and AI Processing Platform with radiation hardened capability scalable from ultra-low power sensor processing to high performance AI processing. This SmartCompute Platform is based on the RISC-V computing platform. SmartCompute features the use of Numem NuRAM due to its low power operation, smaller size and inherent radiation hardness aiding to shrink SWaPC.
