Comprehensive and practical guide of key features of RISC-V Architecture

What You Will Learn:

  • You will be able to confidently answer and explain RISC-V-related questions in technical interviews.

  • Learn the core features of RISC-V, including registers, assembly instructions, and privilege modes.

  • Practice debugging registers, assembly instructions, and privilege modes using the TRACE32 simulator program.

  • Understand how the RISC-V architecture is used in operating system kernels like the Linux kernel.

  • Analyze startup code for bootloaders and the Linux kernel running on RISC-V-based systems.


The Rise of RISC-V Architecture in the System Software Industry:

The RISC-V architecture, an open-source CPU architecture, is gaining attention in the tech industry. You can find the following trends in IT-related news and articles:


  • Big tech companies like NVIDIA, Intel, and Qualcomm are developing RISC-V-based products (chipsets).

  • The number of startups designing chips using RISC-V is increasing, and more companies are focusing on developing products based on RISC-V devices.

  • RISC-V-based CPU architecture is widely used in designing AI semiconductors.

  • By 2026, 15 billion devices are expected to be launched based on RISC-V.

  • Graduate schools (processor design) are conducting various research projects using toolkits to design RISC-V CPUs.

  • Embedded and system software companies are increasingly using the RISC-V CPU architecture for product development.


For this reason, job seekers also need to prepare for technical interviews about RISC-V.
