Intel's Nios V soft processor for its FPGAs uses the RISC-V: RV32IA architecture with atomic extensions, 5-stage pipeline and AXI4 interfaces. Intel has developed a soft IP microcontroller core for…
Startups focused on data center chips had a big month in September. A new emergent from stealth promises to accelerate big data analytics, and startups proving CXL connectivity and high-performance…
Sipeed has released details on a new system-on-module board built around the RISC-V Allwinner D1 chip — and it's aiming to bring the Linux-capable device to market for under $20.…
RISC-V is the hot and upcoming architecture in the embedded space. While a majority of embedded developers have earned their chops programming for ARM processors (and PowerPC beforehand), many have…
The CHERI project at SRI International and the University of Cambridge are pleased to announce our second CHERI reference software-stack release. The release supports the CHERI-RISC-V and Arm Morello architectures.…
SiPearl has opened a design centre in Grenoble with the goal of recruiting 50 engineers on the site by the end of 2022. The company is designing the core chips…
High-performance computing (HPC) has a very different dynamic to the mainstream. It enables classes of computation of strategic importance to nation states and their agencies, and so it attracts investment…
Abstract Extracting features from sensing data on edge devices is a challenging application for which deep neural networks (DNN) have shown promising results. Unfortunately, the general micro-controller-class processors which are…
The majority of people in the tech community are well aware of the two main chip architectures: x86 and ARM. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Today, however, we’re…
