Comprehensive report by Electronic Enthusiasts NetworkRecently, Guangdong LeapFrog Technology received two good news. In May, LeapFrog Technology successfully completed its Series B financing, raising over 200 million RMB. This round of financing was led by Zhuhai New Quality Productivity Investment Fund, with participation from the University of Macau Development Foundation, New Jieli, and other institutions. The funds will be used for the research and development and market expansion of the company’s high-performanceRISC-V CPU products.On September 19, Guangdong LeapFrog Technology officially launched the world’s first enterprise-level simulation platform LeapEMU, which supports over 128 cores of RISC-V RVA23. Dr. Jiang Chaohui, founder and CEO of LeapFrog Technology, stated that this platform can significantly shorten the time for hardware-software co-development, transforming “waiting time” into “development time,” helping RISC-V move from “usable” to “user-friendly.” 
This conference was co-hosted by the RDSA Industry Alliance and Guangdong LeapFrog Technology Co., Ltd., with the participation of the Software Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences PLCT Laboratory, the Zhuhai Center of the China Open Instruction Ecosystem (RISC-V) Alliance, and the Jiachen Project. The seminar gathered government representatives, industry experts, corporate representatives, and community developers to deeply discuss the challenges and opportunities of the RISC-V software ecosystem, injecting strong momentum into industrial collaborative innovation.Yuan Bo, Chief Operating Officer of LeapFrog Technology, introduced that “LeapEMU, as the world’s first enterprise-level simulation platform supporting over 128 cores of RISC-V RVA23, aims to address key issues faced by RISC-V in its development, such as multi-core verification difficulties and low hardware-software collaboration efficiency, providing enterprise users with a high-performance, highly compatible development and verification environment.”“LeapEMU fully supports the RVA23 instruction set, with parallel simulation capabilities of 32/64/128 cores and more, far exceeding the performance limitations of mainstream open-source simulators. The platform has achieved significant improvements in startup speed, single-core, and multi-core operational efficiency, and integrates enterprise-level reliability features such as SecureBoot and RAS, supporting PCIe, NVMe and other high-speed peripheral virtualization, which can be widely applied in chip design, software development, system optimization, and other scenarios.Du Yu, General Manager of the Data Center Division of LeapFrog Technology, shared the LeapEMU ecosystem plan, which focuses on a dual-driven approach of “development ecosystem” and “end-user ecosystem,” collaborating with chip companies, application developers, standard organizations, OEM/ODM manufacturers, and open-source communities to build a closed loop from technology verification to application implementation.In the next three years, LeapEMU will gradually improve the construction of the RVA23 baseline environment, multi-distribution support, and high-performance application ecosystem, and promote the continuous prosperity of the ecosystem through donation programs, cloud service collaborations, feedback mechanisms, and other initiatives.
