Clarifying Misunderstandings About RISC-V

RISC-V is an instruction set architecture (ISA) for microprocessors, and people’s opinions about it are polarized. This is especially true given the apparent competition between the ARM and RISC-V camps. This makes sense. RISC-V and ARM represent fundamentally different philosophies on how to design RISC chips. RISC-V has a long-term view that emphasizes simplicity, avoiding … Read more
