SiFive Performance
SiFive Performance P500
The SiFive Performance™ P500 application processor features a thirteen-stage, triple-issue, out-of-order pipeline compatible with the RISC-V RV64GBC ISA. The Performance P500 scales up to four-core complex configurations while delivering 30% higher performance in less than half the area of a comparable Arm® Cortex®-A75.

SiFive Performance P500 Key Features
- Breakthrough RISC-V performance
- Multi-core, multi-cluster processor configuration, up to 8 cores
- 3x Performance per mm2 compared to Arm® Cortex®-A75
- Performance >8.6 SpecINT2k6/GHz, higher single thread performance than Arm Cortex-A75
- P500 Core Architectural Features
- 64-bit RISC-V core with Sv39/Sv48 Virtual Memory Support
