RISC-V Spotlight: How RISC-V Speeds the Journey of Innovation

on YouTube ↗11m

" summary

Microchip describes adopting RISC-V starting December 2015, shipping a first customer solution in six months and building a PolarFire SoC family with SiFive that integrates RISC-V cores in FPGA fabric. Claims include twice the power efficiency versus competitors and devices that show 40–70% less power consumption, a portable ultrasound use case extends run time from ~3 minutes to >20 minutes, and hardware is hardened for space with zero single-event upsets while PolarFire2 targets ~15× more TeraOps/s than the current Polar architecture.
