BUILT ON COMMUNITY
We Help Everyone Access
the Future
The open RISC-V architecture empowers anyone from anywhere to innovate by accessing the last ISA that will ever matter. We continue to support the open source community while our customers benefit from the high-performance evolution of our IP, ecosystem, extensions, and tools.
We were founded by the inventors of RISC-V. Since then, we’ve earned hundreds of design wins by meeting previously unachievable performance, power, and area target combinations for today’s most challenging workloads. For some applications, SiFive cores deliver comparable performance to equivalent Arm cores at 30% to 40% lower power in a smaller area. Best of all, they give you total control of design, build, and everything else.
We champion RISC-V because:
- It’s a modern architecture for today’s workloads
- Designers can adapt the open standard ISA for their specific needs on Microsoft or Linux systems
- With an open ecosystem, there’s no vendor lock-in
- The ISA evolves with customer requirements
- Our customers get superior compute density in terms of performance per watt
SiFive is at the forefront of RISC-V, partnering with some of the world’s largest semiconductor manufacturers, global hyperscale data centers, and consumer device companies.
Based on this collaboration, we deliver the CPU architecture you need to innovate faster as you develop wearables, automotive and aerospace technology, and other consumer devices. Here’s just some of what we can do:
- Provide innovative RISC-V CPU IP for the semiconductor industry
- Enable the development of application-specific silicon faster than ever
- Unleash the full potential of the open RISC-V architecture at scale
The SiFive Core IP portfolio meets your application specific needs with four distinct processor families based on the RISC-V ISA.
A family of high-performance, area-optimized application processors that delivers unparalleled speed and energy efficiency with a small footprint.
A RISC-V processor family that gives you the freedom to start with a standard, pre-defined core, or to employ SiFive Core Designer to build your own processor configuration.
