Questions about Lunar Lake

Hi,

I have some questions about the Lunar Lake.

1- Where can I find the DSK manual for programming and development?

2- Which core sends instructions to the NPU? P/E cores or the GPU?

Thank you for posting here in community. Regarding your first question about finding the DSK manual for programming and development, Intel typically provides development resources through several channels. You would most likely find the documentation through Intel Developer Zone, Intel's official documentation portal, or the specific product support pages for Lunar Lake. I'd recommend checking Intel's current developer resources directly for the most up-to-date materials.

For your second question about which core sends instructions to the NPU, in Intel's modern architectures with Neural Processing Units, the NPU typically receives instructions through multiple pathways. Both P-cores and E-cores can potentially send work to the NPU, along with the operating system's AI/ML frameworks and drivers, as well as dedicated NPU runtime libraries. The NPU usually operates as a separate accelerator that can be accessed by both CPU cores and potentially the GPU, depending on the specific implementation and software stack being used.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information about Lunar Lake's specific architecture and programming model, I'd strongly recommend checking Intel's latest documentation, as there may have been updates or changes since my last knowledge update that could affect these technical details.
