Ask HN: How do I built my own TPU?
2 points by _vrtq on Aug 2, 2024 | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments
I want to build a mini TPU to learn hardware. What would you guys recommend?


We need more information to answer this question. What do you mean? Tensor processing unit? If so I guess you'd start with an FPGA - not like you can make silicon chips with lithography at home.


You can design the chips at home and fabricate them through a service like MOSIS.

Yeah, I want to like design a small tensor processing unit chip to run neural nets. Obviously it would be for education. But as many steps as I could do, I want to, on the cheap, so I can learn hardware.
