Chenghengwei has launched its first flagship SoC, the CH3715, which integrates both an NPU and a GPGPU. This decision deviates from the industry trend of prioritizing NPUs for edge AI chips. The company's CEO, Chu Libin, explained that the CH3715 was designed to address complex real-world scenarios in machine vision, radar, and industrial equipment that require a combination of AI inference, high-precision floating-point computation, image processing, and low-latency control, which a single NPU cannot fully handle. By integrating these diverse computational capabilities onto a single chip, Chenghengwei aims to simplify existing multi-chip systems, reduce power consumption, and lower integration costs for customers.
