OpenRISC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

OpenRISC is an open source hardware RISC CPU design by OpenCores released under the GNU Lesser General Public License. The OpenCores team implemented the design in the verilog hardware description language. Flextronics International and Jennic Ltd. manufactured the OpenRISC as part of an ASIC. Others implemented OpenRISC in a FPGA.

The OpenCores team also ported the GNU toolchain to OpenRISC to support development in several languages. Linux and µClinux have been ported to the processor.
