No backyard RISC-V foundries, yet!

  That will take something like 20000 transistors.

    0 0 0 Here, I think you dropped a few zeroes.

      The Pulp project claims to have designed a RV32E core in 12 kGE. Which, I believe, implies around 48k transistors with CMOS logic.

      Note that original MIPS (1983) was done in 25k transistors.

  Not a backyard foundry but this guy is attempting to make a "tangible" RISC-V CPU using "As few programmable chips as possible." he wants to use MSI and LSI chips " so things like buffers, flip flops, and so on.
