NVIDIA's upcoming Rosa CPU, designed for agentic AI, will feature in-house Rigel cores based on the Arm v9.2 instruction set, aiming for higher single-core performance than current Olympus cores. The TSMC A16 process offers 1.10x higher chip density than N2P and introduces Super Power Rail back-side power delivery for improved efficiency and signal routing.
NVIDIA's move to TSMC A16 with back-side power delivery for its next-gen AI CPU signals a significant architectural shift to optimize power and performance for future agentic AI workloads.
