Clara, California. The two-day summit served as a platform for education, information exchange, and discussions within the rapidly expanding RISC-V technical community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/file.flywing-tech.com\/res\/article\/20241112101409149a1aa88090cf9a06e6841e3985457e90ba5035.png\" alt=\"\" data-href=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Panelists at the RISC-V Summit<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>1. Andes Technology Invests in Automotive Safety<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-size: 14px;\">At the show, Andes unveiled a new automotive RISC-V processor, the AndesCore D45-SE, designed for ISO 26262 ASIL-D (Automotive Safety Integrity Level D) certification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/file.flywing-tech.com\/res\/article\/202411121015211521f03de57df5badec4e35c03edf4b5079841af7.png\" alt=\"\" data-href=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Block diagram of AndesCore D45-SE<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">The AndesCore D45-SE is a 32-bit, eight-stage, dual-issue RISC-V processor designed for automotive applications. It is an enhanced version of the in-production D45 processor, featuring RISC-V GCBP extensions such as a single\/double precision floating point unit, 16-bit compression, bit manipulation, and packed SIMD\/DSP extensions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">The processor also includes Andes-specific extensions and safety features to meet certification requirements, such as an additional processor core and comparators for self-diagnosis, ECC memory error correction, bus protection, and hardware stack protection. The D45-SE achieves a benchmark of 6.12 Coremark\/MHz, matching the performance of the conventional D45. Its two cores can operate independently, enhancing reliability and safety.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">The D45-SE processor is suitable for critical automotive applications, including millimeter-wave radar sensors, around-view monitor systems (AVMS), vehicle instrument clusters, powertrain DCUs, infotainment DCUs, and front\/rear differential applications.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>2. RISC-V International Standardizes 64-bit With RVA23<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">The RISC-V International organization announced the ratification of RVA23, the 64-bit RISC-V implementation profile standard. This profile includes vector extensions designed for math-intensive workloads such as artificial intelligence\/machine learning (AI\/ML), cryptography, enterprise hardware systems, and operating systems. These new features are part of an effort to make RISC-V a viable option in more demanding settings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">While RISC-V offers flexibility in processor architecture design, this flexibility can lead to compatibility issues. Profiles ensure silicon commonality and software compatibility across different vendor implementations of the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA). The RVA23 profile achieves this for 64-bit RISC-V implementations. Software portability is crucial for the growth of RISC-V as a viable industry processor architecture. Although all RISC-V processors share some base architecture commonality, the specification includes both the base and many potential extensions. The profiles specify a set of mandatory extensions that all software developers can assume will be present. Non-mandatory extensions allow for customization for specific applications without compromising core standard functionality.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">In addition to the math-intensive vector extensions, the RVA23 profile includes a hypervisor extension that supports virtualization\u2014a key requirement for enterprise and cloud computing implementations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>3. Arteris Partners With SiFive for RISC-V SoC IP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-size: 14px;\">Arteris announced the addition of the SiFive P870-D RISC-V CPU to its system-on-chip (SoC) IP library. This pre-verified solution minimizes design risk for data center hardware developers seeking to meet high-performance application requirements. The Arteris SoC is built on its proprietary scalable cache-coherent network-on-chip (NoC) interconnect IP, which reduces latency between processing units in the SoC. By integrating SiFive RISC-V IP with Arteris technology, SoC developers gain access to a pre-verified, high-performance RISC-V core option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/file.flywing-tech.com\/res\/article\/202411121018571857d7a0deba9f9f3b07860400e309a7db52d1c75.png\" alt=\"\" data-href=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Pipeline diagram of SiFive&#8217;s P870<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-size: 14px;\">The Arteris\/SiFive offering supports the advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA) coherent hub interface (CHI) protocol, an open standard for chip interconnect specifications widely used in SoC solutions. SoCs often serve as the scaling arbiter for data center cluster systems. The high-speed AMBA CHI-compatible interconnect architecture and RISC-V core introduce data center-targeted SoC development to the RISC-V ecosystem. With built-in support, chip designers can be confident that the end result will offer familiarity, compatibility, and interoperability for data center buildouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>4. Codasip Donates RISC-V CHERI SDK<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">Codasip announced the donation of its CHERI software development kit (SDK) to the community-interest organization CHERI Alliance. Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions (CHERI) is a security technology designed to protect systems against pointer-based memory attacks, which have accounted for approximately 70% of cyber-attacks over the past two decades.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">The CHERI architecture extends standard RISC-V processor instruction set architectures (ISAs) to address the vulnerability of C language pointers. CHERI replaces pointers with alternatives that establish clear boundaries between different software functions. By isolating and replacing pointers, CHERI significantly reduces the vulnerability of C and C++ code to pointer-based memory attacks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: start;\">CHERI was originally developed as a joint research project between Cambridge University and SRI International. It has since received funding from the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), and other organizations. Codasip released a CHERI-compatible licensable processor in 2023. In its latest move, Codasip has donated its CHERI SDK to the CHERI Alliance to ensure broader availability to the RISC-V developer community.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the RISC-V Summit North America?The RISC-V Summit North America is an annual event that brings together industry leaders,
