About this course

RISC-V, an open-standard computer architecture, is transforming processor design and software/hardware co-design, including enabling open source hardware implementations. This means that software development can occur alongside hardware development, accelerating the design process. Enroll today to develop your understanding of the RISC-V architecture and its ecosystem and get familiar with the RISC-V cores and system-on-chip.

This course is for junior level or higher university computer science, electrical and computer engineers and other technical students as well as others who would like to learn and experiment with RISC-V.

Upon completion, learners should be able to use RISC-V to improve security, power consumption and performance of processors and help shape the future of computer architecture.

At a glance

  • Institution: LinuxFoundationX
  • Subject: Computer Science
  • Level: Intermediate
  • Prerequisites:
    • Learners should have a fundamental understanding of the following topics: digital logic design, high-level programming (such as C programming), assembly programming, RISC-V instruction set architecture, processor microarchitecture, and memory and input/output systems.
    • The software and optional hardware is supported in Linux, and most of it is also supported in Windows and macOS. A Ubuntu 22.04 Virtual Machine is also provided with everything installed on it, so that you can easily use all tools in a Linux environment (independently of the OS that you use in your computer) out-of-the-box. The course may be completed in simulation, so the hardware (the Nexys A7 FPGA board) is optional.
