Implementation of a RISC-V Processor
Abstract
In Chapter 8 , we explored communication interfaces and hardware interfacing techniques, demonstrating how FPGAs interact with peripherals using protocols like UART, SPI, and I2C. Now, in this chapter, we take a significant step forward by applying these foundational concepts to processor design, focusing on the implementation of a RISC-V architecture—an open source instruction set architecture (ISA) that has revolutionized modern computing.
