RISC-V’s expanding role in AI is not a rejection of incumbent architectures, which continue to deliver performance and ...

The chip was designed as part of Europe's broader effort to reduce reliance on non-European processor technologies.

Chip design firm SiFive has raised $175 million at a $2.5 billion as RISC-V emerges as an alternative processor architecture. The funding comes at a time when RISC-V is showing greater momentum as an ...

Arm dominates the microprocessor architecture business, as its licensees have shipped 150 billion chips to date and are shipping 50 billion more in the next two years. But RISC-V is challenging that ...

With just 768 KB of internal memory, 32MB of PSRAM, and 16MB of SPI flash storage, the Olimex ESP32-P4-PC is clearly not meant for use as a general purpose computer. But it’s a fairly versatile system ...

Closed systems stagnate innovation—Linux users know this. Licenses, royalties, and fees keep the well-funded in control. RISC-V throws that out the window because it's free to adopt, adapt, and ...

RISC-V, the open-standard Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) conceived by UC Berkeley developers in 2010, is going from strength to strength. The RISC in RISC-V stands for Reduced Instruction Set ...

SpacemiT and Canonical bring Ubuntu 26.04 LTS to the K3 RISC-V SoC, one of the first RVA23-compliant on sale. Ubuntu 24.04 ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Marco Chiappetta is a technologist who covers semiconductors and AI. In recent years, the RISC-V architecture has gained ...

We’ve been following the open, royalty-free RISC-V ISA for a while. At first we read the specs, and then we saw RISC-V cores in microcontrollers, but now there’s a new board that offers enough ...

The two companies, both long-time partners of Arm, are extending their collaboration on wearables with a RISC-V Snapdragon Wearable platform to power the next-generation Wear OS solutions. “What about ...

An Apple job ad reveals that the company is exploring the use of RISC-V chips, an open-source processor tech that competes with the ARM architecture used for Apple’s A-series and M-series chips.
