How to check if TPU device type is v2 or v3?

Is there any python API in tensorflow (or any other way) to check if the TPU accelerator is v2 or v3 TPU?

You can get to know TPU device type using tf.profiler.experimental.client.monitor. To use TPU in colab, you need to create TPU strategy in the first step.

Please refer completed code as shown below

%tensorflow_version 2.x
import tensorflow as tf
import os

try:
  tpu = tf.distribute.cluster_resolver.TPUClusterResolver()  # TPU detection
  print('Running on TPU ', tpu.cluster_spec().as_dict()['worker'])
except ValueError:
  raise BaseException('ERROR: Not connected to a TPU runtime; please see the previous cell in this notebook for instructions!')

tf.config.experimental_connect_to_cluster(tpu)
tf.tpu.experimental.initialize_tpu_system(tpu)
tpu_strategy = tf.distribute.TPUStrategy(tpu)

Output:

TPU system initialized at 10.96.157.82:8470, but profiler service has been started in all the TPU workers at 8466 port, hence you have to replace 8470 with 8466

tpu_worker = os.environ['COLAB_TPU_ADDR'].replace('8470', '8466') 
print(tf.profiler.experimental.client.monitor(tpu_worker,1))

Output:

  Timestamp: 15:37:16
  TPU type: TPU v2
  Utilization of TPU Matrix Units (higher is better): 0.000%

From this output you can get to know type of TPU. For more information please refer this.
