UltraSoC has expanded its SoC debug solution to include products based on the RISC-V instruction architecture (ISA), which is gaining in popularity as developers look to create open source processors.
“We’re delighted to be able to support RISC-V and we’re committed to doing whatever we can to make it a success,” said Rupert Baines, UltraSoC’s CEO. “Our stance is vendor neutral and ecosystem based. We aim to create a universal development and debug infrastructure in which designers can freely choose the best architecture for the job. I believe our approach is an excellent fit with the aims and aspirations of the RISC-V movement.”
Rick O’Connor, executive director of the RISC-V Foundation, added: “We are building a complete ecosystem: end users, processor architects, tools vendors and supporting components. UltraSoC’s debug and development tools will be a great addition to the community.”
