The open RISC-V ISA specification is an excellent starting point and open-source processor IP cores, such as the CORE-V family, have real potential to change the industry.
The high-quality open-source CORE-V CV32E40P core now allows the broadest participation in the RISC-V revolution, the OpenHW MCU Dev/Kit project is just one example of the innovations that can now be developed from the quality foundation provided by the CV32E40P core, having been verified with the CORE-V-VERIF testbench which leverages the Imperas RISC-V golden reference model.
