The new reality
and tremendous
opportunity of open
source processing
Evolution of the processor industry
RISC-V Foundation2
1980s
Battle of unique, special-
purpose and simple
general-purpose chips.
Rise of Intel x86 CISC
chips for general purpose
and slower adoption of
RISC chips.
Drawbacks of patent
license costs with high
barriers to entry
Today
The industry driven by
diverse computing need
(IoT, AI), solved by custom
processor development.
Low barriers to entry with
open processor IP
(OpenPOWER, RISC-V,
and MIPs).
RISC-V specification is
free and open with
extensions, tools,
implementations, and
software underway.
1990s
The lifespan of CPU
designs began to shrink
from years to months, as
performance demands
accelerated. Moore’s law
often cited to double
transistors every 12-18
months relative to cost.
In parallel, computing
needs diverged across
implementations, from
servers to cars. ARM
became strong for
embedded.
2000s
Performance is critical as
physical limits are in sight,
age of accelerators and io
innovation.
World's first 2-billion
transistor microprocessor
Intel Itanium announced in
2008.
Grass roots of open cores
such as OpenRISC and
OpenSPARC.
Chip
outlook
growing to
US$490
billion in
2019
RISC-V Foundation3
In addition to baseline growth, major
technology shifts on the horizon include 5G,
autonomous vehicles, AR/VR, and AI.
What is 5G all about?
5G expands the mobile ecosystem to connect IoT devices to
the Internet with low latency and provide massive network
capacity, for faster transfer data between IoT and the cloud.
Consistent high speed data, even when users are
moving, makes AI-enabled applications like autonomous
cars a reality.

processor
growth
RISC-V Foundation4
Cloud and data center
applications top cloud
providers like Amazon and Google
are designing their own chips.
Automotive is transforming
from autonomous vehicles to
infotainment to safety, the whole
vehicle relies on innovative
electronics.
Industrial IoT incorporating
artificial intelligence in
manufacturing and industrial
processes.
Mobile and wireless
continue rapid evolution with each
generation of hardware and
increased capability.
Consumer and IoT
devices bring incredible
innovation and volume with billions
of connected devices being
forecast in the next 5-10 years.
Memory was the largest
semiconductor category by sales
with $158 billion in 2018, and the
fastest-growing, with sales
increasing 27.4%.
New workloads demand processor flexibility for
innovation
Legacy ISAs Are
Decades Old
RISC-V Unlocks the

Welcome to the RISC-V revolution!
• RISC-V is the open-
source hardware
Instruction Set
Architecture (ISA)
• Frozen base user spec
released in 2014,
contributed, ratified,
and openly published
by the RISC-V
Foundation

The RISC-V Foundation is a non-profit entity
serving members and the industry
Our mission is to accelerate RISC-V adoption
with shared benefit to the
entire community of stakeholders.
 Drive progression of ratified specs, compliance suite, and
other technical deliverables
 Grow the overall ecosystem / membership, promoting
diversity while preventing fragmentation
 Deepen community engagement and visibility

The new reality and tremendous opportunity of open source processing

  • 1. @risc_v www.riscv.org Calista Redmond CEO, RISC-V Foundation @Calista_Redmond The new reality and tremendous opportunity of open source processing
  • 2. Evolution of the processor industry RISC-V Foundation2 1980s Battle of unique, special- purpose and simple general-purpose chips. Rise of Intel x86 CISC chips for general purpose and slower adoption of RISC chips. Drawbacks of patent license costs with high barriers to entry Today The industry driven by diverse computing need (IoT, AI), solved by custom processor development. Low barriers to entry with open processor IP (OpenPOWER, RISC-V, and MIPs). RISC-V specification is free and open with extensions, tools, implementations, and software underway. 1990s The lifespan of CPU designs began to shrink from years to months, as performance demands accelerated. Moore’s law often cited to double transistors every 12-18 months relative to cost. In parallel, computing needs diverged across implementations, from servers to cars. ARM became strong for embedded. 2000s Performance is critical as physical limits are in sight, age of accelerators and io innovation. World's first 2-billion transistor microprocessor Intel Itanium announced in 2008. Grass roots of open cores such as OpenRISC and OpenSPARC.
  • 3. Chip outlook growing to US$490 billion in 2019 RISC-V Foundation3 In addition to baseline growth, major technology shifts on the horizon include 5G, autonomous vehicles, AR/VR, and AI. What is 5G all about? 5G expands the mobile ecosystem to connect IoT devices to the Internet with low latency and provide massive network capacity, for faster transfer data between IoT and the cloud. Consistent high speed data, even when users are moving, makes AI-enabled applications like autonomous cars a reality.
  • 4. Global trends driving processor growth RISC-V Foundation4 Cloud and data center applications top cloud providers like Amazon and Google are designing their own chips. Automotive is transforming from autonomous vehicles to infotainment to safety, the whole vehicle relies on innovative electronics. Industrial IoT incorporating artificial intelligence in manufacturing and industrial processes. Mobile and wireless continue rapid evolution with each generation of hardware and increased capability. Consumer and IoT devices bring incredible innovation and volume with billions of connected devices being forecast in the next 5-10 years. Memory was the largest semiconductor category by sales with $158 billion in 2018, and the fastest-growing, with sales increasing 27.4%.

  2. 2017 AI in the cloud and PC gaming drove growth in memory (Micron), GPU (NVIDIA), and FPGA makers. Samsung battles Intel as largest semiconductor company by revenue. 2018 AI spread to enterprise and industrial. Cloud infrastructure demand for server CPUs. PC chips grew in 2018 with upgrades to Microsoft Windows 10. According to the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (or WSTS), global semiconductor revenue rose 21.6% YoY in 2017 and is expected to rise 15.9% YoY in 2018. The WSTS forecasts global semiconductor revenue to rise by 2.6% YoY in 2019. Worldwide Semiconductor Market is forecasted to be US$ 478 billion in 2018 - an increase of 15.9 percent from 2017. ... WSTS expects the world semiconductor market to grow in 2018 and 2019 to US$ 478 billion and US$ 490 billion respectively. For 2018, this represents growth of 15.9 percent.Nov 27, 2018 WSTS Semiconductor Market Forecast Autumn 2018 https://www.wsts.org/76/103/WSTS-Semiconductor-Market-Forecast-Autumn-2018 https://marketrealist.com/2018/12/these-tech-trends-could-change-semiconductor-industry-in-2019/
  3. Memory comment according to Semiconductor Industry Assoc SIA. Sales of DRAM products increased 36.4% and sales of NAND flash products increased 14.8%. Logic ($109.3 billion) and micro-ICs ($67.2 billion)—a category that includes microprocessors—rounded out the top three product categories in terms of total sales.  
  4. Legacy ISA’s have been around for decades and weren’t designed for today’s new workloads RISC-V allows us to start with a clean sheet of paper and optimize for new workloads RISC-V gives us the ability to innovate Completely open source Everything about the ISA is available to all Anyone can access and implement it free of charge Implementations can be shared Two major legacy architectures are proprietary and are not easily modifiable
  5. Simple Far smaller than other commercial ISAs Clean-slate design Clear separation between user and privileged ISA Avoids µarchitecture or technology-dependent features A modular ISA Small standard base ISA Multiple standard extensions Designed for extensibility/specialization Variable-length instruction encoding Vast opcode space available for instruction-set extensions Stable Base and standard extensions are frozen Additions via optional extensions, not new versions
