Not really, if you are making a SoC or IoT and you need some core there are RISC-V core that are competitive to many ARM cores. Look at the product lines of Andes, SiFive, Greenwave and others.
- duskwuff 8y agoI can't speak to the other two, but SiFive's offering -- the FE310 -- is a toy. 16K of on-chip RAM and no support for external memory is incredibly limiting -- and the part doesn't appear to be available through commercial distributors, making it unusable outside the hobbyist market.
- nickik 8y agoSiFive offers many chips other then the FE310 as well. Its a new company that has to bootstrap, Andes and others are existing companies that added lines of RISC-V processors.
