The main target that is of business interest to Antmicro are technology companies that are developing machine learning applications for embedded systems and buidling ML accelerators. Renode allows developers to build and test their solutions without access to physical hardware.

Implemented and used by third party in commercial projects.

Further improvements with regard to the interface flexibility and increased coverage of various use cases. Development of the test framework for the RISC-V Composable Extensions certification work.

CFUs are a feature of the open source RISC-V specification designed to enable flexibility of implementation. Renode’s determinism, open licensing, and automation capabilities offer scalability unattainable through physical hardware testing, even for very large designs. RISC-V is also an emerging standard across many industries, thanks to its adaptability.

Renode offers fully-deterministic, software-agnostic, replicable simulation without the constraints of proprietary licensing. Combined with the RISC-V CFU specification, it enables end-to-end testing of open silicon-based solutions across, arguably, all industries.

CFUs are part of the RISC-V open ISA, behind which sustainability is one of the core values. Along with Renode’s full extensibility, determinism and unhindered access to source code, the solution offers full transparency to all involved parties.
