After our previous announcement on the availability of Ubuntu running on RISC-V processors and hardware, we are proud to announce the Ubuntu release for additional RISC-V hardware – Allwinner’s Nezha board.
RISC-V, a new paradigm for open source hardware
In the last decade, open source and open standards have reshaped our world. Such technologies have produced long-lasting results and the RISC-V consortium has extended open source to develop a standard open-source processor architecture. The release of RISC-V to the open community marked the first time the hardware community embraced open-source standards and collaboration at this level.
This free and open Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) can enable a new era of processor innovation through open standard collaboration with rapid industry-wide adoption. The RISC-V ISA delivers a new level of free, extensible software and hardware freedom on architecture. The architecture can be applied to a broad range of processors, from…
