For most System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, the most critical task is not RTL coding, nor is it creating the chip architecture. Nowadays, SoCs are primarily designed by assembling various silicon Intellectual Property (IP) modules from multiple vendors. This makes managing silicon IP a major task in the design process. Generally speaking, in new SoC designs, less … Read more

Lian Zhian recently released a demonstration video showing a development board equipped with the Tsinghua Unigroup Yiying 1520 running the OpenHarmony 3.2 Release version, which is capable of normal touch … Read more
Overview of the Overall Market Size of RISC-V Processors RISC-V is an open standard instruction set architecture based on research from the Parallel Computing Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley. Since the establishment of the RISC-V Foundation (now renamed RISC-V International) in 2015, it has had 36 founding members; today, the organization has over … Read more
(Source: hackday)The Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) defines the software interface through which a Central Processing Unit (CPU) can be controlled. Unlike early computer systems that lacked a defined standard ISA, the advantages of compatibility and portability with a standard ISA have become evident over time. However, the best part of standards is that there are … Read more
New Intelligence Report Source: Reuters Editor: Zhang Jia [New Intelligence Overview] According to Reuters, the non-profit RISC-V Foundation is set to relocate its headquarters to the neutral country of Switzerland. Huawei supports this move as it is beneficial for reducing political interference from the U.S. government in the open-source community. However, even with the relocation … Read more
I have been studying the RISC-V architecture for some time, and I have summarized some essential knowledge points for beginners in RISC-V, which I would like to share with new learners. What is RISC-V? The most commonly heard processor architectures are probably x86 and ARM. The x86 architecture is mainly used in PCs, while ARM … Read more
