Requirements

  • If you are already an embedded developer or have knowledge about any processor, then this course will help you to jump start with RISC-V

Description

RISC-V is an open, modern Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that is rapidly gaining adoption across the semiconductor, embedded systems, and processor design industries. Whether you're an embedded software engineer, firmware developer, or computer architecture enthusiast, understanding RISC-V has become an increasingly valuable skill.

This course is designed as a comprehensive beginner-friendly introduction to the RISC-V architecture. You'll learn what makes RISC-V unique, explore its standard instruction set extensions, and understand how it enables custom instruction extensions while maintaining compatibility with the standard ISA.

If you already have experience with any processor architecture or instruction set architecture (ISA) and want to get started with RISC-V, this course provides the perfect foundation. It covers everything you need to begin your RISC-V journey, including available development boards, simulators, toolchains, and the software environment required to start writing and executing RISC-V assembly programs.

The course provides an in-depth explanation of the RV32I Base Integer Instruction Set, including:

  • Load and Store instructions

  • Arithmetic and Logical instructions

  • Control transfer instructions

  • Conditional Branch instructions

  • Unconditional Jump instructions

Every concept is explained with practical examples to help you build a strong understanding of RISC-V assembly programming.

To reinforce the fundamentals, you'll implement real-world programming examples such as Fibonacci sequence generation and Bubble Sort entirely in RISC-V assembly. These hands-on exercises demonstrate how the RV32I instruction set is used to solve practical programming problems while introducing assembler directives, pseudo instructions, and important RISC-V programming conventions.

By the end of this course, you'll have a solid understanding of the RISC-V architecture, confidence in writing and debugging RISC-V assembly programs, and the practical knowledge needed to continue exploring advanced RISC-V topics and embedded software development.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to quickly start with RISC-V assembly programming & jump into RISC-V ecosystem.
  • This is a beginner's course about RISC-V & RISC-V eco system.
