Combining signal processing and artificial intelligence applications is actually a demanding task as these areas require different hardware support during program execution. Specifically, if the demands on rea-time as well as fast execution are high, any feasible solution will use different processing platforms, e.g. DSPs for signal processing and GPU for AI. This results in higher costs, less reliability and high demands on memory transfer rates not to talk about different development tool chains, This paper introduces the UB410 architecture based on RISC-V with enhancements to support different application classes like digital signal processing and artificial intelligence.
