RISC-V, pronounced “risk five,” is a modern open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) based on reduced instruction set computer (RISC) principles. In simple terms, it’s like a blueprint that ...

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 ...

First and foremost, RISC-V is a modular, open-source, instruction set definition and nothing more. RISC-V as an ecosystem is much more. The instruction set provides the encoding and semantics, but it ...

Adrian holds a BA in English Studies and an MA in Philosophy and Contemporary Critical Theory. He has been writing about technology for a few years now, working both in Poland and with ...

RISC-V International, the global open hardware standards organization, has announced that Intel has joined RISC-V at the Premier membership level. Let that sink in for a minute. Intel, which has made ...

At the 2025 RISC-V Summit in China, Nvidia announced that its CUDA software platform will be made compatible with the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) on the CPU side of things. The news was ...

The Performance P650, a RISC-V processor family member, is 50% faster than its predecessor but slower than top-end chips in Samsung and Apple smartphones. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to ...

NEW DELHI: The RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) has the potential to open the tightly locked central processing unit (CPU) architecture, enabling startups and companies to develop chips for ...

If you wanted to make a CPU, and you’re not AMD or Intel, there are two real choices: ARM and RISC-V. But what are the differences between the two, and why do companies choose one over the other?

CHIPS Alliance has developed an open-source riscv-dv random instruction generator for RISC-V processor verification. This article focuses on the class riscv_asm_program_gen.sv and its various ...
