Risc-V hmm... interesting. I know arm is based off of a Risc chip so that's why I wondered...
yehyeh. no RISC just means "reduced instruction set". like "drink" can describe anything from alcohol to water to coffee... MIPS is a RISC core. ARC is a RISC core. ARM is a RISC core. ARM is a RISC core. etc. etc.
power budget is 2.5 watts and madhu laughed: do the math, you can get 16 SMP cores into 2.5 watts :)
Wow... that's freakin awesome. Any idea when such a processor will be implemented into the eoma68 standard?
if standard chip design is anything to go by... probably 18 months.
