A few years ago, we came across GigaDevice GD32 microcontroller compatible with STMicro STM32F103, but with a higher 108 MHz clock, and zero wait state internal flash. The company is now back with a new microcontroller. GigaDevice GD32V is based on RISC-V open-source architecture. The new RISC-V microcontroller delivers 15% performance improvement in Coremark over the company’ GD32 Arm Cortex-M3 microcontroller (360 vs 312), as well as 25 to 50% lower power consumption.
