Embedded Computing Design Article: Open-Source RISC-V Architecture Is Changing The Game For IoT Processors

Over the past decade, open source software has been one of the biggest catalysts in the tech world. Today, the power of open source, the freedom it enables and the communities that it generates are gaining traction in the hardware world too. For these reasons RISC-V is gaining huge popularity. Here is an introduction to RISC-V and the opportunities it opens.
RISC-V is an open instruction set architecture (ISA) originally developed in the Computer Science Division at the University of California, Berkeley. It, in turn, is based on the popular reduced instruction set computing (RISC) principles, just like ARM and MIPS and other common commercial processor architectures.
