Eight core RISC-V processor and TSN switch for AI space designs

Microchip is qualifying an eight core fault tolerant RISC-V processor for AI in space applications.

The radiation tolerant PIC64-HSPC octal core 1.2GHz switch provides 26K DMIPS and is built on a 12nm FINFET process at GlobalFoundries in the US.

The PIC64-HSPC is the second member of the new 64bit RISC-V processor family from Microchip, but uses the X280 RISC-V cores from SiFive with vector extensions for machine learning and AI applications.
