The semiconductor world has always been the beating heart of tech innovation, powering everything from our smartphones to the latest AI breakthroughs. However, as chip complexity increases and market demands accelerate, adherence to traditional development cycles may be stagnating design teams and slowing … Read More
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming every layer of computing, from hyperscale data centers training trillion-parameter models to battery-powered edge devices performing real-time inference. Hardware requirements are escalating on every front: compute density is increasing, power budgets are tightening, … Read More
Daniel is joined by Andrea Gallo, CEO of RISC-V International. Before joining RISC-V he worked in leadership roles at Linaro for over a decade and before Linaro he was a fellow at STMicroelectronics.
Dan explores the current state of the RISC-V movement with Andrea, who describes the focus and history of this evolving standard.… Read More
At Embedded World 2025 in Nuremberg, Germany, on March 11, 2025, Yuning Liang, DeepComputing Founder and CEO walked onto the stage with a mischievous smile and a challenge. “What’s the hardest product to make?” he asked rhetorically. “A laptop. It’s bloody hard… but we did it. You can swap the motherboard, you can upgrade, you can’t… Read More
SiFive, founded by the original creators of the RISC-V instruction set, has become the leading independent supplier of RISC-V processor IP. More than two billion devices already incorporate SiFive designs, ranging from camera controllers and SSDs to smartphones and automotive systems. The company no longer sells its own chips,… Read More

For more than half a century, the foundations of computing have stood on a single architecture: the Von Neumann or Harvard model. Nearly all modern chips—CPUs, GPUs, and even many specialized accelerators—rely on some variant of this design. Over time, the industry has layered on complexity and specialization to… Read More
For decades, high-performance CPU design has been dominated by traditional out-of-order (OOO) execution architectures. Giants like Intel, Arm, and AMD have refined this approach into an industry standard—balancing performance and complexity through increasingly sophisticated schedulers, speculation, and runtime … Read More
At Hot Chips 2025, Philippe Sauter of ETH Zürich presented Basilisk, a project that may redefine what’s possible with open-source hardware. Basilisk is a 34 mm² RISC-V SoC fabricated at IHP Microelectronics on its open-source 130nm BiCMOS process in Germany. Basilisk, named after the Greco-Roman mythical creature known… Read More
Taking place in Munich the same week as the IAA Mobility show and across the street from the main IAA expo, the RISC-V Automotive Conference 2025 brings together the worldwide automotive ecosystem to discuss the amazing momentum and opportunities of RISC-V in automotive.
