As the world’s first open-source processor architecture, RISC-V could eliminate costly licenses, kickstart new innovation, and improve global partnerships across the developer community.  RISC-V (pronounced “risk-five”) is what’s known as…

I’ve just been notified about an inexpensive board (HLK-W806) based on WinnerMicro W806 32-bit XT804 (XuanTie E804) microcontroller clocked at up to 240 MHz and equipped with 1MB flash and…

While Arm cores have proven themselves reliable and are now in most mobile devices and Internet of Things (IoT) endpoints, it’s always both useful and reassuring to have an alternative, as one…

Intel® FPGA Technology Day (IFTD) is a free four-day event that will be hosted virtually across the globe in North America, China, Japan, EMEA, and Asia Pacific from December 6-9,…

This repository holds the SELENE hardware platform. Remember to clone this repository recursively, as interconnect/axi and interconnect/common_cells are submodules. To simulate the SoC and/or generate the SELENE plaftorm for the…

最近大學、研究機構、晶片廠商和網際網路巨頭紛紛採用和支持RISC-V這一有希望與Arm抗衡的指令集架構(ISA)…儘管建構RISC-V MCU的生態面臨很多挑戰，但巨大的發展潛力值得嘗試，只要RISC-V社群和廠商願意協作，一定能開創出RISC-V的一片「芯」天地。 據權威市調機構預測，2021年全球微控制器(MCU)市場總銷售額預計可達190億美元，出貨量超過250億顆。從2021~2028年，MCU年複合成長率(CAGR)約為10%，到2028年將增至360億美元。IC Insights今年8月發佈的報告顯示，汽車MCU佔據全球MCU市場的40%，預計2021年汽車MCU銷售額將達到76億美元，相比去年成長23%，其中約77%都是32位元MCU。 Read the full article. 

In this hands-on guide, we'll show how to cross compile a Rust example of Ockam for RISC-V Linux systems. We'll also see how to test RISC-V Linux programs using qemu.…
