Mouser introduces RISC-V resource centre
by David Manners · Electronics Weekly.comMouser has introduced its RISC-V resource centre to inform design engineers about the latest technology and applications.
Through articles, blogs, eBooks, and products, from Mouser’s technical team and trusted manufacturing partners, engineers are equipped with the knowledge required to design RISC-V applications.
The content hub explores how RISC-V is pushing machine learning (ML) closer to the edge in a wide range of devices, including autonomous vehicles, healthcare devices, and more.
Mouser stocks a selection of semiconductors and electronic components for RISC-V applications including:
● The FPB-R9A02G021 RISC-V MCU Fast Prototyping Board by Renesas Electronics is designed for evaluation, prototyping, and development with the R9A02G021 MCUs. This board incorporates a SEGGER J-Link™ emulator circuit that enables the user to design applications seamlessly, eliminating the need for additional investments in tools. Typical applications include consumer electronics, industrial sensors, medical sensors, and more.
● The Pico 2 from Raspberry Pi delivers a significant performance boost while retaining compatibility with earlier Raspberry Pi Pico series devices. The Pico 2 offers a higher core clock speed, double the memory, more powerful Arm® cores, optional RISC‑V cores, heightened security features, and upgraded interfacing capabilities. Programmable in C / C++ and Python, Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is the ideal microcontroller board for enthusiasts and professional developers alike.
● BeagleV®-Fire single board computer (SBC) from BeagleBoard is powered by Microchip’s PolarFire® MPFS025T FCVG484E 5x core RISC-V System on Chip with FPGA fabric. Built around a powerful, energy-efficient RISC-V ISA, this SBC offers a computer architecture and open-source hardware development for the masses by providing opportunities to explore and experiment with RISC-V technology.
● The XIAO ESP32C6 Microcontroller (MCU) by Seeed Studio is a cost-effective device based on Espressif’s ESP32-C6. This compact MCU excels in Matter-compliant smart home applications with support for various wireless connectivity (2.4GHz Wi-Fi 6, BLE 5.0, Zigbee®, and Thread). Designed with a thumb-size footprint and a single-sided mount of the XIAO Series, the MCU is best suited for space-limited projects.
