Nov. 17, 2023<\/strong>\uff0dRapidus Corporation (Head Office: 4-1 Kojimachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Atsuyoshi Koike), a company involved in the research, development, design, manufacture, and sales of advanced logic semiconductors, today announced an agreement with Tenstorrent Inc. (Head Office: Toronto, Canada), a next-generation computing company building computers for AI, to jointly develop semiconductor IP in the field of AI edge devices based on 2nm logic semiconductors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to its AI processors and servers, Tenstorrent built and owns the world\u2019s most performant RISC-V CPU intellectual property and licenses that technology to its customers around the world. Through this joint IP partnership agreement with Rapidus, Tenstorrent will accelerate the development of cutting-edge devices to meet the needs of the ever-evolving digital society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJapan is very important both to Tenstorrent and to me personally,\u201d said David Bennett, Chief Customer Officer of Tenstorrent. \u201cWe have tremendous momentum with our customers in the Asia Pacific region right now, and I am proud that we can start talking about all the things we are doing in Japan. We are excited about the bold and aggressive moves that Japan is making to take advantage of its legacy of excellence in semiconductor technology and its incredible engineering talent base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am very pleased to be working with Tenstorrent,\u201d said Atsuyoshi Koike, President and CEO of Rapidus Inc. \u201cWe are both unique startup companies, and I am confident that this collaboration will lead to major innovations based on AI.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September of this year, Rapidus began construction of IIM (Innovative Integration for Manufacturing) in Chitose City, Hokkaido. This will be Japan\u2019s first facility for the production of state-of-the-art logic semiconductors at 2-nanometers (nm) and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, Rapidus has been dispatching researchers to the Albany Nanotech Complex in New York, USA, one of the world\u2019s most advanced semiconductor research centers, to work with IBM to develop technologies for the production of 2nm logic semiconductors. The company is also planning to acquire EUV lithography technology, which is essential for the production of cutting-edge semiconductors, from imec. Utilizing these technologies, the company plans to start operation of a pilot production line at IIM-1 in April 2025, and begin mass production in 2027. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rapidus will contribute to the enhancement of Japan\u2019s industrial strength through the realization of a state-of-the-art LSI foundry, by building cooperative frameworks with domestic and overseas materials and equipment industries, and through international collaborations with IBM, imec, and other partners. In addition, we will actively promote collaboration in the field of intellectual property (IP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
