ISSCC 2026: Rebellions Details Industry's First Quad-Chiplet AI Solution with UCIe Interconnects — Claims Rebel100 AI Accelerator Equals the Power...
South Korean AI‑inference specialist Rebellions unveiled the Rebel 100, a quad‑chiplet accelerator built on Samsung’s SF4X process and linked with UCIe‑A interconnects. The SiP integrates four 320 mm² NPU dies, each with a 12‑Hi HBM3E stack, delivering 2 FP8 PFLOPS (1 FP16 PFLOPS) at a 600 W TDP, comparable to Nvidia’s H200. UCIe‑A provides 4 TB/s bandwidth and 11 ns latency, while proprietary DMA, synchronization managers, and hardware‑staggering techniques improve data movement and power integrity. Rebellions positions the solution as a power‑efficient foundation for trillion‑parameter LLM inference and rack‑scale deployments.
