Everything about RISC-V

Open-source CPU instruction set architecture

RISC-V is a free and open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) for computer CPUs. It is based on reduced instruction set computer (RISC) principles. Unlike proprietary ISAs such as x86 and ARM, RISC-V is described as "free and open" because its specifications are released under permissive open-source licenses and can be implemented without paying royalties.
