Efficient Computer says the Electron E1 is targeted at embedded and edge artificial intelligence workloads, which struggle ...

“We’re doing something that has the capability of a CPU but is one or two orders of magnitude more efficient,” says co-founder Brandon Lucia.

There's Intel and AMD on the x86 side, with Apple and Qualcomm making Arm-based processors on the other. We break down the ...

As it happens though, RISC is alive and well, revived and revitalized with RISC-V in 2014 by Berkeley University. RISC-V ...

The move represents a major step by the US semiconductor giant in boosting the development of open-source chip architecture ...

We model AMD reaching $17.9 billion in AI GPU revenue in 2029. In turn, AMD’s GPU revenue should grow at a 29% CAGR over the next five years. While these estimates pale in comparison to the $115 ...

It’s built for a RISC-V processor, since that instruction set is completely open source and transparent about what it’s doing. It’s also incredibly small, coming in at around 2000 lines of code.

ASIP’s address this need by optimizing the processor instruction set to the needs of the application, or class of applications. This optimization can improve performance by orders of magnitude over ...

RISC-V is grounded in the principles of reduced instruction set computing (RISC), a design philosophy that simplifies processor instructions to improve efficiency and performance.

Intel’s CISC Moat The 8086 processor that undergirded the x86 instruction set was introduced in 1978, when memory was limited, expensive, and slow; that’s why the x86 used Complex Instruction Set ...
