#Milk-V Duo S mini #PC with #RISC-V and #ARM processor cores

The versatility of the Milk-V Duo S is one of its standout features. It comes equipped with a range of connectivity options, including a 10/100 #Ethernet jack for stable wired internet connections and #USB Type-C and Type-A ports for connecting a variety of peripherals. The board also includes a #microSD card reader for expandable storage, and it’s equipped with 512MB of #DDR3 memory, which is more than capable of managing multiple tasks simultaneously. For those who need wireless connectivity, certain models of the Milk-V Duo S also include #WiFi and #Bluetooth, as well as #eMMC storage options for faster data access and improved security.

...

With a starting price of only $11, it is positioned to be within reach of a wide spectrum of users, from hobbyists to professionals.

#RISC-V #technology emerges as battleground in US-China tech #war

Jack Kang, vice president of #business #development at #SiFive, a Santa Clara, #California - based startup using RISC-V, said potential U.S. #government #restrictions on American companies regarding RISC-V would be a "tremendous tragedy."

"It would be like banning us from working on the internet," Kang said. "It would be a huge mistake in terms of technology, leadership, innovation and companies and jobs that are being created."

#RISC-V based #GPU Processor

source: https://www.think-silicon.com/neox-graphics

NEOX™ is a parallel multicore and multithreaded GPU #architecture based on the RISC-V RV64C ISA instruction set with adaptive NoC. The number of cores varies from 4 to 64 organized in 1-16 cluster elements, each configured for cache sizes and thread counts . Depending on cluster / core configuration, NEOX™ compute power is ranging from 12.8 to 409.6 GFLOPS at 800MHz with support for FP16, FP32 and optionally FP64 and SIMD instructions.

Does anyone know how far #LibreRISC is with their GPU?

Wy don't we have already mainframe class operating systems, interconnects and high level language abstractions on top of Open RISC-V ISA designs?

What is a fricking #MainFrame system? It's a very specific ISA, implemented in a so many Virtual Machine Layers .. heck they even call themselves #LPARs (Logical Partitions). That it is nowadays run on a _bunch_ of different processors... All just coded down to give the optimum peak performance for decades old layers of code, whlie guaranteeing every single transaction.

Heck we develop RISC-V for rad hardnened stuff already, creating a quorum of several cores to make sure there is no error...

When will we enter the real space of big calculations and big transactions finally? ;)

„Erste Tests mit dem Chip bestätigen, dass er korrekt funktioniert“, berichtet Alexander #Walsemann, der die Ergebnisse bereits weiteren Forschenden in einem Workshop in Hannover vorgestellt hat. Als nächstes stehen umfangreiche Überprüfungen an, dazu gehören Studien mit Röntgenstrahlen und Schwer-Ionen. „Aufgrund der angewendeten Techniken erwarten wir eine äußerst hohe #Strahlentoleranz von bis zu 100 #Megarad – das wäre ein weltweiter Rekord“, betont Betreuer Michael #Karagounis.

A #RaspberryPi with #RISC-V is quite unlikely in the near future

source: https://www.theregister.com/2022/02/28/pi_at_10/

As for the future, a Raspberry Pi 5 is inevitable but, in a blow to those hoping for something even more exotic in the usually #Broadcom Arm #SoC, RISC-V isn't on the cards, certainly not in the timeframe for the next generation of Pi. "I can't go out today and license a RISC-V core," says Upton, citing the current state of the ecosystem, "which is even as good as the core of the Raspberry Pi 4."

...

The implosion of the #Nvidia / #Arm deal has also reduced the chances of a RISC-V Pi (in the 2030 timeframe), down from 20 per cent to 10 per cent, according to #Upton.

Doomed from the start? Why #Nvidia failed to buy #Arm from #SoftBank

source: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/08/nvidia-arm-deal-may-have-been-doomed-from-the-start.html

Before long, competition regulators in the U.S., the U.K., #China and #Europe were investigating the #deal from all angles, leading tech investors and analysts to speculate that the acquisition would never gain #approval.

So I had wished that the deal would be successful, because that would have catapulted the free architecture #RISC-V to the front. China would then no longer have relied on proprietary ARM CPUs.
