China's Unisoc launches 'world's first' open architecture RISC-V security chip


Is it CCP-proof?

Unisoc, formerly Spreadtrum, a well-known developer of various application processors from China, has introduced what it claims to be the world's first security chip based on RISC-V, an open instruction set architecture (ISA). The E450R also offers a 50% improvement in typical transaction-based applications, which makes the chip particularly suitable for high-demand environments where quick processing is crucial, IT Home claims. This allowed the company to tailor its processing cores for its workloads, offering more performance at lower power compared to the traditional approach when using off-the-shelf Arm R that leverages a lot of legacy features to maintain ISA integrity, to ensure compatibility with a range of software.
