High-performance RISC-V processors: UltraRISC UR-DP1000, Zhihe A210, SpacemIT K3


line for the rest of the year 2025, namely UltraRISC UR-DP1000, Zhihe A210, and SpacemIT K3. We currently have limited information about each of those processors, but let’s see what information we can gather from the web, mostly as a result of the recent RISC-V Summit in China.

It will have UEFI firmware with support for ACPI, CPPC, SMBIOS, and the ability to boot RISC-V ISO images from Debian, Ubuntu, openEuler, Centos, Deepin, Feroda Remix, and other operating systems. The post on Zhihu appears to focus a lot on RVA23 Profile compliance with support for all 81 mandatory and optional extensions, including Hypervisor, Vector, BF16, CFI, and Sv57. They also highlight the advantages of the RISC-V Vector (RVV) Extension, either matching (or close to it) or outperforming Intel and Arm instructions for tasks like video encoding/decoding, OpenSSL, LLMs, and CRC computation.
