Featured Models

The Models team is focused on developing the following models, optimizing them for performance, accuracy, and compatibility. Follow each model link for more details.

[!IMPORTANT] For a full model list see the Model Matrix, or visit the Developer Hub.

[!NOTE] Performance Metrics:

• Time to First Token (TTFT) measures the time (in milliseconds) it takes to generate the first output token after input is received.
• T/S/U (Tokens per Second per User): Represents the throughput of first-token generation after prefill. It is calculated as 1 / inter-token latency.
• T/S (Tokens per Second): Represents total token throughput, calculated as T/S = T/S/U x batch size.
• TP (Tensor Parallel) and DP (Data Parallel): Indicate the parallelization factors across multiple devices.
• Reported LLM Performance: Based on an input sequence length of 128 tokens for all models.
• Performance Data Source: Metrics were collected using the tt-metal model demos (linked above). Results may vary when using other runtimes such as the vLLM inference server.

Tools and Instruments

TT-NN Visualizer

A comprehensive tool for visualizing and analyzing model execution, offering interactive graphs, memory plots, tensor details, buffer overviews, operation flow graphs, and multi-instance support with file or SSH-based report loading.

TT-Exalens

The TT-Exalens repository describes TT-Lensium, a low-level debugging tool for Tenstorrent hardware. It allows developers to access and communicate with Wormhole and Blackhole devices.

TT-SMI

The TT-SMI repository describes the Tenstorrent System Management Interface. This command line utility can interact with Tenstorrent devices on host. TT-SMI provides an easy to use interface displaying device, telemetry, and firmware information.

Model Explorer

The Model Explorer is an intuitive and hierarchical visualization tool using model graphs. It organizes model operations into nested layers and provides features for model exploration and debugging.

Tracy Profiler

The Tracy Profiler is a real-time nanosecond resolution, remote telemetry, hybrid frame, and sampling tool. Tracy supports profiling CPU, GPU, memory allocation, locks, context switches, and more.

Kernel Print Debug

DPRINT can print variables, addresses, and circular buffer data from kernels to the host terminal or log file. This feature is useful for debugging issues with kernels.

Watcher

Watcher monitors firmware and kernels for common programming errors, and overall device status. If an error or hang occurs, Watcher displays log data of that occurrence.

Inspector

Inspector provides insights into host runtime. It logs necessary data for investigation and allows queries to host runtime data.
