Curious what about this technology makes it front page noteworthy? Has the deep learning community been hotly anticipating the arrival of this technology, or is it more along the lines of stuffing the ballot box?
- monocasa 7y agoIt's the announcement of the highest perf RISC-V core that you'll be able to put your hands on so far.
- lsllc 7y ago"you'll be able to put your hands on" ... the million dollar question: When???
- brucehoult 7y agoIf you're a company making your own SoCs already and want a high performance RISC-V core for a mid-range tablet or phone or an SBC equivalent to the Raspberry Pi 4 or something like that then the answer is "now". If you're someone wanting to buy a quantity one chip from Digikey or Mouser then it'll be ... when someone decides to make and sell a retail chip. Which might well be someone making their own chip for a tablet or set-top box etc and selling the surplus production.
- monocasa 7y agoFor sure. SiFive has been pretty good at delivering so far.
- qlk1123 7y agoAny stats for that? Being the highest means there are other lower ones. What are other RISC-V players?
- monocasa 7y agoOf what you can buy today: Kendryte K210, GigaDevice GD32V, and SiFive has FE310 and U54MC.
