TRISTAN EDA Tool training at RISC-V Summit Europe 2024
TRISTAN EDA Tool training @ RISC-V Summit Europe 2024
Electronic Design Automation tools play a central role for research and development of Processor Families and Hardware Peripherals. TRISTAN aims to expand and develop RISC-V architecture in Europe to compete with existing commercial alternatives, and focuses on low and mid-end performance RISC-V processors including hardware peripherals, software development and EDA tooling. We have provided this free-access training on EDA tooling for RISC-V solutions and will give a glimpse into the TRISTAN EDA tooling landscape, Virtual Platform Modeling for RISC-V Systems, CVE2 Industrial Verification, and shared experiences on IP Design with open-source and commercial tools.
The agenda of the training and presentated materials are listed below:
Welcome and Brief Introduction to the TRISTAN EDA tooling landscape
SPEAKER: Bernhard Fischer (Siemens)
This introduction session will give a brief overview of the EDA tools used in TRISTAN and their alignment to a generalized IC design flow, from architecture exploration to synthesis and layout. [presentation]
Virtual Platform Modeling for RISC-V Systems
SPEAKER: Rocco Jonak (MINRES)
Using virtual prototypes and platforms is becoming more and more common both for large SoCs and embedded systems. This session will briefly outline the elements which MINRES is providing to the RISCV ecosystem in that context, and which improvements are in progress as part of the development within the TRISTAN project. [presentation]
CVE2 Industrial Verification
SPEAKER: Florian ‘Flo’ Wohlrab (OpenHW Group), Davide Schiavone (OpenHW Group), Mario Rodriguez(OpenHW Group)
We will give you an overview how to verify a deeply embedded RISC-V CPU, the CVE2 of OpenHW, with open-source tools and convert it to an industrial usable product within a community driven, TRISTAN sponsored open-source project. [presentation]
Experiences on IP Design with open-source and commercial tools
SPEAKER: Sara Bocchio (STMicroelectronics)
First experiences gained during TRISTAN with Open-Source EDA tools and commercial tools for a design use case will be shared showing advantages and limitations of the approaches taken. [presentation]
TRISTAN Technical Conference 2024 Announced
TRISTAN Project Board is excited to introduce the TRISTAN Project Technical Conference 2024, hosted by the University of Technology of Graz, with the support of NXP Semiconductors Austria.
The conference will be held in Graz on September 11-12, 2024.
Day-1 of the conference is Open and Free.
Our ambition is to provide engineering students and RISC-V newbies a good introduction to the growing technology ecosystem (we like to call it the "Rising Tide") based on our beloved ISA. All morning keynotes and RISC-V industrial applications demos, as well as the whole afternoon training program will be broadcast online.
Day-2 will be limited to all TRISTAN Consortium members.
By registering online through this form you'll get updates on the agenda, as well as links to the online broadcast channel. Your participation to the conference, on site or online, will greatly contribute to the success of TRISTAN dissemination mission!
We're looking forward to seeing you in Graz!

TRISTAN at RISC-V Summit Europe 2024
TRISTAN Project will be present with a own booth at the coming RISC-V Summit Europe 2024, in Munich.
The booth is co-sponsored by semify, VLSI, MINRES. Siemens, Synthara and ST. There you can meet our representatives and get introduced to the project as well as to the contribution our sponsors are giving to it.
Beside our sponsors, a few more TRISTAN partners will be present with posters during the event.
D1.1 Initial requirements and feedback for processor and hardware IPs
This deliverable reports the results of the requirements for processors and hardware IPs, describing the activities carried on in Task 1.2 during the first three months. The deliverable defines the concept of requirement, illustrates the process adopted for the requirements elicitation, reports the set of requirements collected following this process and provides some statistics on them. The requirements will describe the relationships between the actual concrete results in the work packages and the objectives that they satisfy. An update of this report will be available Mid 2024
