An Eight-Core 1.44-GHz RISC-V Vector Processor in 16-nm FinFET

This work presents a RISC-V system-on-chip (SoC) with eight application cores containing programmable-precision vector accelerators. The SoC is built by using a generator-based design methodology, which enables the integration of open-source and project-specific building blocks to develop differentiated functionality. The digital component generators use Chisel, the analog component generators use...
