Ubitium is developing 'universal' processor combining CPU, GPU, DSP, and FPGA


2026 launch date may be more aspirational than set-in-stone.

But while FPGAs tend to come short of chips designed for specific uses in areas like performance, efficiency, and value, Ubititum says the Universal Processor will be “smaller, more energy-efficient, and significantly less costly.” The developers behind Ubitium’s Universal Processor are a handful of semiconductor veterans who worked at companies like Intel, Nvidia, and Texas Instruments, as well as smaller chip firms such as PACT XPP Technologies. Earlier this year, Flow Computing announced it was working on a Parallel Processing Unit, or PPU, that could increase CPU performance by a hundredfold after rewriting software.
