Give me a single mass produced consumer product using RISC-V cores. Because so far, outside some ESP32, that has not happened yet.

Give me a single mass produced consumer product using RISC-V cores. Because so far, outside some ESP32, that has not happened yet.
- snvzz 3y agoExplain the RISC-V cores that already moved.
- manuelabeledo 3y agoThey are all in low cost microcontrollers. It's inexpensive. What a feat.
- snvzz 3y ago>They are all in low cost microcontrollers. Can you point at your source for that? I am not interested in speculation.
- manuelabeledo 3y agoYet you have been speculating since the very beginning. Anyway, there is a good number of ESP32 microcontrollers using RISC-V cores, replacing the aging ARM, e.g. ESP32-C3, ESP32-P4.
- snvzz 3y agoAnd you believe esp32 account for most of 10b cores?
- manuelabeledo 3y agoThat’s why I asked you to give me a single example of a mass produced consumer product using RISC-V cores. You know, like widely available phones, cars, routers, etc. Get off your bubble. SBCs are a tiny fraction of the CPU market.
- snvzz 3y agoSBCs absolutely are tiny. Even the VisionFive2 (first mass-produced) is only in the thousands of units. But custom/semicustom is huge, and is where I expect most already shipped cores would be. Most of those cores would not be user visible. Western Digital probably accounts for a lot of shipped cores, as they were early adopters and moved their HDDs controllers to RISC-V.
