SYNOPS SYSTEM

Human Brain Analog Computing

SYNOPS is a modular, brain-inspired computing architecture built around distributed sNodes, local task management, a high-speed switched fabric, and adaptive connection weighting between processing elements.

5 Gb/s
Full duplex per sNode fabric link

Each TC4D9 sNode connects into the LAN9696 switching fabric at up to 5 gigabits per second in each direction.

20 Gb/s
Aggregate full-duplex inter-module fabric

Two 10 Gb/s inter-module fabric lanes provide up to 20 Gb/s aggregate full-duplex bandwidth between SYNOPS modules.

The SYNOPS concept

A modular Human Brain Analog architecture

Rather than depending on one very large processor, SYNOPS is designed around many local processing elements working together as a coordinated fabric. Each plug-in TC4D9 card acts as a replaceable sNode within the larger system.

sNode Processing

Each TC4D9 card operates as one local processing node with one manager core coordinating five worker cores.

Adaptive Connections

Repeatedly useful inter-node communication paths can be assigned stronger logical weights and higher service priority.

High-Speed Fabric

Each sNode has up to 5 Gb/s full-duplex connectivity into the LAN9696 fabric, with up to 20 Gb/s aggregate full-duplex bandwidth between modules.

Hardware organization

From sNodes to a neural fabric

The current SYNOPS backplane combines eight TC4D9 sNode positions with a dedicated LAN9696 switching fabric and local regulated power. The internal fabric provides high-speed node-to-node communication while dual 10 Gb/s inter-module links allow complete SYNOPS modules to become building blocks in larger systems.

Processor sNodeLocal manager core plus five worker cores.
LAN9696 FabricUp to 5 Gb/s full duplex per sNode link.
Module FabricTwo 10 Gb/s lanes; up to 20 Gb/s aggregate full duplex.
Modular GrowthAdditional SYNOPS modules extend the processing fabric.
