Andes Technology was founded in 2014 on a simple belief – that we could bring together the brilliance of microprocessor architects and software engineers and capture it in tools that made processor design simpler, faster, and less expensive and have the mission of democratizing processor design. More than 2 billion Codasip RISC-V processors have shipped.
Al Kuo-Chi Lin / Al Lin is a Sales VP in charge of business development in Asia and Europe for Andes. He owns 20 years of semiconductor industry experience, focused on foundry, design service and IP. Prior to join Andes, he was sales deputy director of Faraday. He started his career as RD engineer in UMC and served as RD manager when he joined Trecenti Technology in Japan. Al received M.S. in Electrical Engineering from National Taiwan University, and B.S. in Electrophysics from Chiao-Tung University.
Presentation Outline : For a long time, Moore’s law was supported by theories such as Dennard scaling and Amdahl’s law and had overcome many hardships. But with the end of those theories, Moore’s law is barely alive. One way to keep it alive is through Custom Compute for specific domains (applications). Instead of off-the-shelf processor IP, which has been utilized for approximately 20 years, you now have access to custom processors optimized for each application. RISC-V is the perfect foundation for Custom Compute.
