Video Introduction

The SweRV Cores

The SweRV Cores are RISC-V processor cores developed by Western Digital for use in their upcoming products. The RTL source of the cores is available free of charge from the CHIPSAlliance repository on GitHub, or as a part of a comprehensive, ready-to-go Support Package from Codasip.

There are currently three SweRV Cores to choose from: EH1, the powerful, two-way superscalar core, EH2, even more powerful core based on EH1 with added dual threading, and finally EL2, the ultra low-power minimalist core.

The SweRV Core EH1 is an advanced high-performance core with small footprint, suitable for embedded devices supporting data-intensive applications such as storage controllers, industrial IoT, real-time analytics in surveillance systems, and other smart systems.

  • Architecture: RV32IMC
  • Pipeline: 9-stage dual issue
  • Threads: Single
  • Size @ TSMC: .11mm @ 28nm
  • Performance: 5.7 CoreMark/MHz*
* Benchmark source: Western Digital, RISC-V Summit 2020/12. Further gain is usually possible with compiler optimizations.

SweRV Core Support Package

The SweRV Core Support Package makes it possible to implement a RISC-V-based SweRV Core at a fraction of the cost of competing technologies. The package covers everything needed to deploy the core, from comprehensive support for traditional 3rd party design flows to all the components necessary to design, implement, test, and write software for a SweRV-based system-on-chip.
