Chinese Scientists Deliver 1,000x Faster Analogue Chip
Researchers at Peking University's Institute for Artificial Intelligence, led by Dr. Sun Zhong, published on 13 October in Nature Electronics an RRAM-based analogue computing chip that reportedly solves certain matrix problems about 1,000 times faster than an H100 GPU while using over 100 times less energy. The device uses dual RRAM circuits for fast approximation and iterative refinement to reach digital-comparable precision, enabling scalable, low-power applications in 6G and AI training.
