MIPS releases RISC-V CPU for autonomous vehicles


Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More MIPS released its P8700 CPU based on the RISC-V computing architecture to target driver assistance and autonomous vehicle applications. The San Jose, California-based company, which focuses on developing efficient and configurable intellectual property compute, licenses its […]

It also mitigates the system bottlenecks of data movement inefficiency by providing highly efficient, optimized and lower power latency sensitive solution specifically tailored for interrupt laden multi-sensor platforms. “The launch of the MIPS P8700 RISC-V core will help drive our continued development for global automakers, enabling greater performance and excellent efficiency in cost and power usage.” Vasanth Waran, worldwide head of business development at MIPS, said in an interview with VentureBeat that other architectures have been pushing performance forward through brute force, adding more complexity and scaling, but not necessarily coming up with affordable designs.
