The PolarFire SoC from our partner Microchip is the first mass-market Linux-capable implementation of RISC-V and the early access release of the Icicle development kit is huge news in the RISC-V world. Although this exciting 4+1 core FPGA SoC is becoming...
OPEN FPGA, OPEN ISA, OPEN HARDWARE, OPEN SOURCE TOOLS
We are proud to announce that Antmicro has joined the OpenPOWER Foundation, an organization aiming to democratize the well-established, and since 2019 also open source POWER ISA.
On this occasion we were invited to a “get-to-know-the-newest-member” Q&A...
OPEN FPGA, OPEN ISA, OPEN HARDWARE, OPEN SOURCE TOOLS
Antmicro’s open source work spans all parts of the computing stack, from software and AI, to PCBs, FPGAs and, most recently, custom silicon. We connect those areas with an overarching vision of open source tooling and methodology, and a software-driven...
EDGE AI, OPEN HARDWARE, OPEN NETWORKING, OPEN MACHINE VISION
At Antmicro, hardware and software engineering go hand in hand; being able to build sophisticated computing systems gives us the freedom to employ intricate engineering concepts to create a variety of state-of-the-art devices and applications.
The ASIC design and manufacturing flow has for a long time been dominated by proprietary tools and processes. The growing complexity of chip-building has been reinforcing the claim that “hardware is too hard to be open source”, as the cost and time needed...
