For curious microcontroller developer.
Risc-V
is a free instruction set for CPUs. You can have more
infos here.
Clifford Wolf did implement MCU class Risc-V core and integrated it into the SoC icoSoC which does run on the icoBoard. So you can use the icoBoard as Risc-V MCU developer kit.
Currently Contiki OS is available as operating system running on iocSoC on the icoBoard.
Others did port NuttX to the Risc-V, but it was not yet tested on icoBoard.
We hope in the future to have available microPython on
the icoSoC.
