An Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) defines the software interface through which for example a central processor unit (CPU) is controlled. Unlike early computer systems which didn’t define a standard ISA …read more Continue reading Checking In On the ISA Wars and Its Impact on CPU Architectures
The days that PDFs were the granny-proof Swiss Army knives of document sharing are definitely over, according to [vk6]. He has managed to pull off the ultimate mind-bender: running Linux …read more Continue reading Nice PDF, But Can It Run Linux? Yikes!
The crux of most supercomputers is the ability to operate on many pieces of data at once — something video cards are good at, too. Enter T1 (short for Torrent-1), …read more Continue reading T1 is a RISC-V Cray
The LM3914 LED bar graph driver was an amazing chip back in the day. Along with the LM3915, its logarithmic cousin, these chips gave a modern look to projects, allowing …read more Continue reading RISC-V Microcontroller Lights Up Synth with LED Level Meter
If you read Japanese, you might have seen the book “Design and Implementation of Microkernels” by [Nu Tian Sheng]. An appendix covers how to write your own operating system for …read more Continue reading Writing a RISC-V OS From Scratch
From the Institute of Computing Technology division of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Peng Cheng Laboratory comes a high-performance and well-documented RISC-V core called XiangShan. In the Git repository, …read more Continue reading High Performance RISC-V
Ah, Lisp, the archaic language that just keeps on giving. You either love or hate it, but you’ll never stop it. [David Johnson-Davies] is clearly in the love it camp …read more Continue reading A RISC-V LISP Compiler…Written In Lisp
Researchers disclose the details of GhostWrite, a RISC-V CPU vulnerability that can be exploited to gain full access to targeted devices.
The post GhostWrite Vulnerability Facilitates Attacks on Devices With RISC-V CPU appeared first on SecurityWeek.

[Michael Kohn] started programming on the Motorola 68000 architecture and then, for work reasons, moved over to the Intel x86 and was not exactly pleased by the latter chip’s perceived …read more Continue reading Comparing x86 and 68000 in an FPGA
These days, when most folks think of a computer they imagine a machine with multiple CPUs, several gigabytes of RAM, and a few terabytes of non-volatile storage for good measure. …read more Continue reading CH32V003 Makes for Dirt Cheap RISC-V Computer
