Abstract: RISC-V is being broadly adopted across many applications. Although the ecosystem is still immature, adequate tools and infrastructure are available for a wide range of development options. Embedded RISC-V Core for Storage Applications will explain the development of a RISC-V based SoC for a storage controller. The development trade offs and decisions which were made will be shared. The challenges and data bottlenecks as well as the solutions will be explained.

SPEAKER #2: John Min, Director of Field Applications Engineering
