Google · v7p / v8 / v9

Google Tensor Processing Unit

Google's custom AI accelerator line. From Cloud Next 2026 onward Google bifurcates the eighth generation into Sunfish (8t, training, Broadcom-led) and Zebrafish (8i, inference, MediaTek-led) — both on TSMC N2 / CoWoS, targeted for 2027 H2. The MediaTek role expands beyond pure inference: per 工商時報 2026-04-27, MediaTek delivers I/O Die + back-end design service on the 8t training chip as well, using TSMC N3P + CoWoS-S. Roadmap continues to v9 Humufish, expected to move packaging to Intel EMIB to relieve CoWoS bottlenecks.
