CHANDLER, Ariz., June 8, 2022 - The first SoC Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to support the royalty-free RISC-V open Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) has entered volume production, marking a major milestone in the evolution of embedded processors. As customers continue to adopt PolarFire® SoC FPGAs at a rapid pace, Microchip Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MCHP) announces the production qualification for…

As a free and open instruction set architecture, RISC-V has shaken things up in the processor realm by offering an ISA that everyone can use without paying a license fee. Processor, SoC, IP and tool vendors have been rolling out a steady stream of products based on RISC-V.

Antmicro Develops RISC-V SoM Recently, Antmicro announced the release of its ARV module that integrates a RISC-V-based SoC and other supporting components. So what is RISC-V, what features does the new SoM contain, and is RISC-V about to explode? What is RISC-V? RISC-V is an open-source ISA that is jointly developed by researchers around the world with the University of California, Berkley, being the most predominant member. Before introducing RISC-V, most processor architectures such as x86 and ARM were (and still are), closed-sourced and proprietary. This means that anyone who wants to crea...
