RISC-V: What You Need to Know About This Cutting-Edge Technology

RISC-V: What You Need to Know About This Cutting-Edge Technology

RISC-V is an open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) conceived by developers at the University of California, Berkeley in 2010 and is continuously evolving. RISC in RISC-V stands for Reduced Instruction Set Computer, which means it is designed to simplify each individual instruction given to the computer. Since RISC-V is an open standard, anyone can … Read more

Differences Between RISC-V+AI and AI+RISC-V

Differences Between RISC-V+AI and AI+RISC-V

Many domestic chip companies have chosen to adapt quickly to market demands by being compatible with the CUDA ecosystem. While this is effective in the short term, in the long run, this “if you can’t beat them, join them” approach remains constrained by human limitations. Other companies choose the path of independent development but face … Read more

How Open-Source RISC-V Architecture Reshapes Global Chip Landscape

Many people believe that the open-source RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) architecture will determine the future of chip design and the development of new technologies like next-generation artificial intelligence. RISC-V is an open standard developed through international cooperation, and participating in such international standards is thought to help companies maintain greater control over their intellectual … Read more
