Chip Overview

CI1301, CI1302 and CI1303 are the new generation of high-performance neural network intelligent speech chips developed by Chipintelli. They integrate the brain neural network processor BNPU V3 and CPU core developed by Chipintelli. The main frequency of the system can reach 220MHz. SRAM up to 640KByte is built in, PMU power management unit and RC oscillator are integrated, dual channel high-performance low-power Audio Codec and multi-channel UART, IIC, IIS, PWM, GPIO, PDM and other peripheral control interfaces are integrated. The chip only needs a few peripheral devices such as resistors and capacitors to realize various hardware solutions of intelligent voice products, with high cost performance.

CI1301, CI1302 and CI1303 use industrial design standards, which have high environmental reliability. The chip’s operating temperature range is - 40 ° C to+85 ° C, which meets the MSL3 humidity sensitivity level, the 4K contact discharge test standard of IEC 61000-4-2, the FCC electromagnetic compatibility standard, and the ROHS and REACH environmental protection standards.

CI1301, CI1302 and CI1303 adopt the third-generation BNPU technology of Chipintelli. This technology supports DNN TDNN RNN CNN and other neural networks and parallel vector operations. It can realize voice recognition, voiceprint recognition, command word self-learning, voice detection and deep learning noise reduction, and has strong echo cancellation and environmental noise suppression capabilities. The chip solution also supports Chinese, English, Japanese and other global languages, and can be widely used in household appliances, lighting, toys, wearables, industry, automobiles and other product fields to achieve voice interaction and control and various intelligent voice solutions.

Table G-1 Chip Information

Chip model FLASH capacity RAM capacity Package information
CI1301 1MByte 640KByte SSOP24(8.6mm*6.0mm*1.64mm)
CI1302 2MByte 640KByte SSOP24(8.6mm*6.0mm*1.64mm)
CI1303 4MByte 640KByte SSOP24(8.6mm*6.0mm*1.64mm)

Note: The built-in Flash capacity of CI1303 chip is larger, which can support a larger capacity of neural network model and more broadcast functions. It has better noise reduction effect and supports the OTA upgrade function. CI1301 and CI1302 chips do not support the OTA upgrade function temporarily, and because of the Flash capacity, if it supports voice print recognition, it does not support voice recognition. If you want to support both voice print recognition and voice recognition, please use CI1303 chip
