AMD has added three new chips to its Versal Prime Series Gen 2 lineup — the Versal 2VM3454, 2VM3254, and 2VM3104. Designed for space-constrained applications like Pro AV, broadcast, and industrial IoT, these new devices deliver up to 100K DMIPS of scalar compute in packages as small as 23 x 23 mm. AMD started shipping the first production units of the Versal Prime Gen2 Series with the 2VM3858 device late last year. The 2VM3558 has since entered full production, while the 2VM3358 is currently sampling. These new devices are designed to provide an optimized footprint and processing subsystem compared to the earlier models. Despite the reduction in core count, AMD claims these devices can deliver up to 5x the scalar compute performance compared to existing AMD adaptive SoCs. AMD Versal Prime Series Gen 2 (2VM3104, 2VM3254, and 2VM3454) specifications: Processor Subsystem (PS) APU – Quad-core Arm Cortex-A78AE with 64 KB L1 Cache (with parity & ECC), 512 KB L2 Cache, and 2 MB L3 Cache per cluster Real-time Processor – Hexa-core (6x) Arm Cortex-R52 with 32 KB L1 Cache (with ECC) and 128 KB TCM (with ECC) GPU – Integrated single-core Arm Mali-G78AE GPU Video Codec Unit (VCU) – 1x hardened tile on the 2VM3254 and 2VM3454 supporting HEVC & AVC encode and decode up to 4K60, 4:4:4, 12-bit (not available on 2VM3104) Memory – 1 MB On-Chip Memory with ECC Programmable Logic (PL) and DSP System Logic Cells – Up to 564,760 (2VM3454) LUTs – Up to 258,176 (2VM3454) DSP Engines – Up to 1,140 (2VM3454) Memory DDR5 memory controllers up to 6400 Mb/s and LPDDR5X up to 8533 Mb/s; up to 102 GB/s maximum bandwidth Total PL Memory – Up to 45.4 Mbit Storage – UFS 3.1 support Display – DisplayPort 1.4 Networking Up to 2x 100Gbps Multirate Ethernet MAC on the 2VM3454 (1x on 2VM3104 and 2VM3254) 10Gbps Ethernet and 1Gbps Ethernet USB – USB 3.2 and USB 2.0 support Other I/O – Up to 16x GTYP transceivers (PL-Only) up to 32 Gbps (4x on 2VM3104; 8x on 2VM3254) Expansion – PL-based PCIe Gen5x4 contro...

South Korea’s economy faces uncertainties from rising inflation, a weakening won and uneven performance across sectors, even as it grows stronger than expected this year, according to analysts. The Bank of Korea on Thursday revised its economic growth outlook for this year to 2.6 per cent, up 0.6 percentage points from its forecast three months ago, citing robust exports driven by booming semiconductor demand and government supplementary spending aimed at offsetting the shocks from the Middle East conflict. South Korea’s economy expanded 1.7 per cent in the first quarter compared with the previous quarter – the strongest quarterly jump since 2021 – and 3.6 per cent from the same period a year earlier. It grew 1 per cent for the whole of 2025. Advertisement The central bank also raised its inflation forecast for this year to 2.7 per cent from 2.2 per cent due to the ongoing impact of the war. “If the crisis in the Middle East is resolved early, this year’s growth rate could exceed 2.6 per cent,” the central bank’s governor Shin Hyun-song told journalists on Thursday. Advertisement He added that growth would depend on the sustainability of strong semiconductor demand.

Two of the hottest stocks in the market right now are Advanced Micro Devices (AMD +4.69%) and Micron (MU 0.42%). And according to some Wall Street analysts, these stocks still have more room to run. Baird analyst Tristan Gerra has a street-high $625 price target on AMD, up from $300 ahead of the company's early May earnings report, representing about 25% from here (as of May 26). Meanwhile, UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri just tripled his price target on Micron from $535 to $1,625, representing around 80% upside. Let's take a look at why these two artificial intelligence (AI) stocks are so hot right now and whether or not it's too late to get in. AMD: A huge inference and agentic AI opportunity Expand NASDAQ : AMD Advanced Micro Devices Today's Change ( 4.69 %) $ 23.25 Current Price $ 518.79 Key Data Points Market Cap $808B Day's Range $ 493.60 - $ 527.00 52wk Range $ 108.62 - $ 527.20 Volume 927K Avg Vol 38.1M Gross Margin 47.09 % AMD is riding two of the most powerful trends in AI right now in inference and agentic AI. These markets are just starting to boom, and AMD is well-positioned to see explosive growth in the coming years as a result. While rival Nvidia has dominated the AI model training market, helped by most foundational AI code being written on its CUDA software platform, inference is less technologically demanding and tends to be more memory-bound than compute-bound. With hyperscalers looking to diversify away from Nvidia and looking for all the compute power they can get their hands on, AMD is set to be a big beneficiary. Its chiplet design can pack in more high-bandwidth memory (HBM), making its graphics processing units (GPUs) well-suited for inference. Meanwhile, it has already signed large GPU deals worth over $100 billion each, which should be a huge growth driver in the years ahead. At the same time, the company has a huge opportunity in the data center central processing unit (CPU) market due to the rise of agentic AI. CPUs act like the brains of a ...
