Adoption of RISC-V processors is accelerating. This technology, like everything, comes with benefits and risks. The open standard means freedom for many developers, but success depends on the ...

If you wanted to make a CPU, and you’re not AMD or Intel, there are two real choices: ARM and RISC-V. But what are the differences between the two, and why do companies choose one over the other?

Have you ever wondered if there’s a way to break free from the dominance of proprietary computing architectures like x86 and ARM? For decades, these platforms have dictated the rules of the game, ...

Google has announced that it will support the RISC-V architecture. This is an alternative computing architecture to Arm, which powers virtually all smartphones. Android only supports two computing ...

The 2024 RISC-V Summit North America marked a significant milestone for the RISC-V community with the ratification of the RVA23 Profile. This event signifies a major step forward in the evolution of ...

A decade ago, an idea was born in a laboratory at the University of California at Berkeley to create a lingua franca for computer chips, a set of instructions that would be used by all chipmakers and ...

RISC-V is no longer content to disrupt the CPU industry. It is waging war against every type of processor integrated into an SoC or advanced package, an ambitious plan that will face stiff competition ...

RISC-V, pronounced “risk five,” is a modern open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) based on reduced instruction set computer (RISC) principles. In simple terms, it’s like a blueprint that ...

RISC-V is an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that rapidly transforms the CPU design and development landscape. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V allows free access to architecture ...

RISC-V chip design and IP powerhouse, SiFive, just announced availability of its new HiFive Premier P550 development board, and it's sure to make waves at the RISC-V Summit this week in Santa Clara.
