RISC-V Wikiby Admin on 02-17-2020 at 10:50 am
RISC-V (pronounced “risk-five”) is an open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) based on the reduced instruction set computing (RISC) principles. Unlike proprietary ISAs such as x86 or Arm, RISC-V is openly specified and freely available, allowing anyone to design, manufacture, and commercialize RISC-V processors… Read More
Cryptography IP refers to pre-designed, reusable hardware blocks that implement cryptographic algorithms and security protocols within integrated circuits (ICs), System-on-Chip (SoC), microcontrollers (MCUs), and FPGA-based systems. These IP blocks accelerate cryptographic operations, secure communications, … Read More
Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) refers to a broad category of memory technologies that retain stored data even when power is removed. NVM is fundamental to persistent storage in consumer electronics, embedded systems, automotive applications, data centers, and advanced computing. Unlike volatile memory (such as DRAM or SRAM),… Read More
Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) is an open-standard, on-chip interconnect specification for the connection and management of functional blocks in system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Developed and maintained by Arm Ltd., AMBA is the de facto standard bus protocol used across a wide range of embedded systems, … Read More
