The AutoPhi V18-Seed Voxel Processor \u2014 Seed Series #50<\/strong> (SKU: APV18-SEE-0050-130NM) is the final and most powerful processor in the Seed tier. Priced at approximately $2,692.00<\/strong>, it delivers an estimated 680.0 KFLOPS<\/strong> on the 130nm node with 4 qubits<\/strong>. This is the ceiling of the Seed Series \u2014 the last stop before the Micro Series begins at #51.<\/p>\n List Price:<\/strong> ~$2,692.00 USD<\/p>\n At under $2,700, the Seed #50 is the most cost-efficient processor in the entire Seed tier. The cost-per-KFLOP drops to approximately $3.96<\/strong> \u2014 a 60% improvement over the baseline Seed #1. This aggressive cost curve is the result of maximizing the 130nm node’s potential through advanced voxel configuration without requiring a node shrink. The 4-qubit quantum subsystem is the most powerful in the Seed tier, enabling multi-qubit entanglement, small quantum circuits, and meaningful hybrid classical-quantum workloads.<\/p>\n Buyers who want the absolute best the Seed tier offers before stepping up to the Micro Series (which starts around $2,973) should look here. The Seed #50 delivers nearly 7x the performance of the Seed #1 for under 2.7x the cost.<\/p>\n Compute Performance:<\/strong> ~680.0 KFLOPS<\/p>\n Fabrication Node:<\/strong> 130nm<\/p>\n Quantum Integration:<\/strong> 4 qubits<\/p>\n Performance Class:<\/strong> Kilo-class<\/p>\n Approaching 700 KFLOPS, the Seed #50 is the most powerful Kilo-class processor before the catalog transitions to the Micro Series. The 4-qubit quantum layer supports Grover’s algorithm variants, small VQE (Variational Quantum Eigensolver) circuits, and quantum random number generation with entanglement verification. It is the most fully realized expression of the Seed tier’s design intent: maximum extraction from the 130nm process with a quantum layer that is genuinely useful, not merely present.<\/p>\nCost Breakdown<\/h2>\n
