Bare Metal Programming on RISC-V
About the training: A hands-on, bare-metal course on the SiFive FE310-G002 RISC-V microcontroller (HiFive1 board), centered on interrupts, the machine timer, and, as its core, building a preemptive round-robin task scheduler with full context switching. Participants implement the scheduler from the ground up, programming mostly in C and using a small amount of RISC-V assembly […]
ASIC Design Training
About the training: This 5-day course will familiarize participants with real world design problems of integrated circuits. The goal of a workshop is to design a custom analog integrated circuit which works at different process, voltage and temperature (PVT) variations. This includes a custom design of analog circuit schematic, determining appropriate values for components and […]
