Background
6
Need for indigenous Microprocessors -
Significant due to the accentuated use of
electronic systems and its applications.
Microprocessor Development Programme (MDP)
– funded by MeitY, aims to achieve self-reliance
in Microprocessor Technology.
C-DAC -responsible for the design and
development of a family of Microprocessors, IPs,
SoCs and Ecosystem
Objectives
7
Development of a series of Processors and reusable
peripheral IP cores
Design and develop a SoC ASIC integrating the 64-bit
Quad Core 2GHz RISC Processor with peripheral IPs
Making available the full Ecosystem for the processor
Resource Centre - Processors, IPs and eco-system for
hardware designers/users of the Microprocessor.
Status
8
Developed VEGA series of microprocessors including
India’s first 64-bit multi-core RISC-V based Superscalar
Out-of-order Processor.
VEGA series - 32/64-bit Single/Dual/Quad Core
Superscalar In-Order /Out-of-Order processor cores
based on RISC-V ISA with Multilevel Caches, Memory
Management Unit and Coherent Interconnect.
Completed two tape outs and more scheduled in next
two years
