The Future of Mission Critical Edge Compute Is RISC-V - David Levy, Microchip

Mission Critical Edge Compute demands high-performance MPUs with time and space partitioning capabilities to enable mixed-criticality workloads. As well, the MPUs must be built with comprehensive fault-tolerance and fault-isolation capabilities. Given these requirements, A&D and Industrial systems developers worldwide are looking to RISC-V as a key enabling technology to enable their next-generation platforms. This presentation will explore: 1) Why RISC-V for Mission Critical Edge Compute: Virtualization, Vector Processing, and WorldGuard Partitioning 2) How RISC-V is set to transform space computing 3) The opportunities for RISC-V in aviation 4) Applications for RISC-V in industrial applications This presentation will conclude with how Microchip is responding and a call-to-action for what is needed from the RISC-V ecosystem to fully capitalize on this once in a generation opportunity to transform critical infrastructure.
