Today (July 15), “smart gathering in Shunde, core development” — “risc-v” open source chip technology application seminar opened in Shunde, laying a foundation for chip R & D, design, application and personnel training.

Li Jiajie, member of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC National Committee and vice chairman of the all China Federation of industry and commerce, and municipal and district leaders Guo Wenhai, Xian Yangfu and Liu Yi attended the seminar. Shunde held a special activity of high specification risc-v open source chips for the first time. The meeting lasted for 1.5 days. Shanghai StarFive Technology Co., Ltd. and risc-v ecological partners brought “dry goods” sharing of risc-v ecological trends, application scenarios and other “dry goods” in the form of Summit Forum, technical speeches and Q & A exchanges. There is also a special area for risc-v ecological and product application demonstration, including programming translation tools, health watch based on chip application, etc.

According to reports, x86 architecture is rising with the computer age. The arrival of mobile communication era has created arm architecture, while risc-v conforms to the development of intelligent Internet era and will bring changes in equipment and technology. As a simplified instruction set, it has the characteristics of simple and stable, strong scalability, full open source and easy transplantation, and is leading a new era of chip design.
