Riscduino is a Single 32 bit RISC V Core based SOC design pin compatible to arudino platform and this soc targetted for efabless Shuttle program. This project uses only open source tool set for simulation,synthesis and backend tools. The SOC flow follow the openlane methodology and SOC environment is compatible with efabless/carvel methodology.

RISC V Core

Riscduino SOC Integrated 32 Bits RISC V core. Initial version of Single core RISC-V core is picked from Syntacore SCR1 (https://github.com/syntacore/scr1)

RISC V core customization for Riscduino SOC

Following Design changes are done on the basic version of syntacore RISC core

   * Some of the sv syntex are changed to standard verilog format to make compatibile with opensource tool iverilog & yosys
   * Instruction Request are changed from Single word to 4 Word Burst
   * Multiplication and Divsion are changed to improve timing
   * Additional pipe line stages added to improve the RISC timing closure near to 50Mhz
   * 2KB instruction cache 
   * 2KB data cache
   * Additional router are added towards instruction cache
   * Additional router are added towards data cache
   * Modified AXI/AHB interface to wishbone interface for instruction and data memory interface
