For over 50 years, the semiconductor industry has relied on the Tomasulo algorithm, introduced by IBM in 1967, to build specialized CPUs, GPUs, and other chips tailored to specific computing tasks.
Now, Ubitium, a hardware startup founded by semiconductor veterans, has developed a universal RISC-V processor that consolidates all computing workloads onto a single, affordable chip.
This technology is particularly significant for embedded systems and robotics, where the cost of hardware often limits the deployment of advanced computing solutions.
Ubitium’s universal processor is designed to be scalable and supports a portfolio of chips that vary in length but share the same microarchitecture and software stack, ensuring that consumers can expand their programs without changing their progression processes.
The processor’s workload-agnostic design makes it suitable for any computing task and helps simplify hardware requirements.
Ubitium has raised $3. 7 million in seed funding, which will fuel the progression of initial chip prototypes and progression kits, with plans to launch the first processors through 2026.
“The $500 billion processor industry is built on restrictive boundaries between computing tasks,” noted Hyun Shin Cho, CEO of Ubitium.
“We are erasing those boundaries. Our universal processor does everything (CPU, GPU, DSP, FPGA) on one chip, one architecture. This is an incremental improvement. It is a paradigm shift. This is the most resilient processor architecture. The The AI era demands it.
Cho added that the company envisions a future in which a single processor design can handle responsibilities ranging from small embedded systems to high-performance computing without specialized hardware modifications.
“For too long we have accepted that making devices smart means making them complex. “Multiple processors or processor cores, progression teams, endless integration challenges: today that is changing,” he added.
Efosa has been writing about generation for over 7 years, first driven by interest and now driven by a strong hobby in this field. He has a master’s degree and a doctorate in science, which has given him a solid foundation in analytical thinking. Efosa has developed a voluntary interest in generation policy, particularly exploring the intersection of privacy, security and policy. His studies focus on how technological advances influence regulatory frameworks and social standards, knowledge coverage and cybersecurity. By joining TechRadar Pro, in addition to privacy and generation, it also focuses on B2B security products. Efosa can be contacted at this email: udinmwenefosa@gmail. com
