ⁱ Based on AMD internal performance and power projections for the AIE-ML v2 compute tile architecture in the Versal AI Edge series Gen 2 using the MX6 data type, compared to performance specifications and AMD Power Design Manager power results for the AIE-ML compute tile architecture featured in the first generation Versal AI Edge Series using INT8 data type. Assumptions: 2 row, 8 column sub-arrays. Operating conditions: 1 GHz Fmax, 0.7V AIE operating voltage, 100C junction temperature, typical process, 60% vector load, % activations = 0 < 10%. Actual performance will vary when final products are released in market. Performance projections as of March 2024. (VER-023).

ⁱⁱ Based on AMD internal pre-silicon performance estimates for combined total DMIPs of the Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 and Versal Prime Series Gen 2 processing system when configured with 8 Arm Cortex-A78AE applications cores @2.2 GHz and 10 Arm Cortex-R52 real-time cores @1.05 GHz, compared to the published combined total DMIPs of the processing system in the first-generation Versal AI Edge series and Versal Prime series. Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 and Versal Prime Series Gen 2 operating conditions: highest available speed grade, 0.88V PS operating voltage, split-mode operation, maximum supported operating frequency. First-generation Versal AI Edge series and Versal Prime Series operating conditions: highest available speed grade, 0.88V PS operating voltage, maximum supported operating frequency. Actual DMIPs performance will vary when final products are released in market. Performance projections as of February 2024. (VER-027)
