Ibex RISC-V Core
Ibex is a production-quality open source 32-bit RISC-V CPU core written in SystemVerilog. The CPU core is heavily parametrizable and well suited for embedded control applications. Ibex is being extensively verified and has seen multiple tape-outs. Ibex supports the Integer (I) or Embedded (E), Integer Multiplication and Division (M), Compressed (C), and B (Bit Manipulation) extensions.
The block diagram below shows the small parametrization with a 2-stage pipeline.
Ibex was initially developed as part of the PULP platform under the name "Zero-riscy", and has been contributed to lowRISC who maintains it and develops it further. It is under active development.
Configuration
Ibex offers several configuration parameters to meet the needs of various application scenarios. The options include different choices for the architecture of the multiplier unit, as well as a range of performance and security features. The table below indicates performance, area and verification status for a few selected configurations. These are configurations on which lowRISC is focusing for performance evaluation and design verification (see supported configs).
Config | "micro" | "small" | "maxperf" | "maxperf-pmp-bmfull" |
---|---|---|---|---|
Features | RV32EC | RV32IMC, 3 cycle mult | RV32IMC, 1 cycle mult, Branch target ALU, Writeback stage | RV32IMCB, 1 cycle mult, Branch target ALU, Writeback stage, 16 PMP regions |
Performance (CoreMark/MHz) | 0.904 | 2.47 | 3.13 | 3.05 |
Area - Yosys (kGE) | 17.44 | 26.06 | 35.64 | 58.74 |
Area - Commercial (estimated kGE) | ~16 | ~24 | ~33 | ~54 |
Verification status | Red | Green | Amber | Amber |
Notes:
- Performance numbers are based on CoreMark running on the Ibex Simple System platform.
Note that different ISAs (use of B and C extensions) give the best results for different configurations.
See the Benchmarks README for more information.
The "maxperf-pmp-bmfull" configuration sets a
SpecBranch
parameter inibex_core.sv
; this helps timing but has a small negative performance impact. - Yosys synthesis area numbers are based on the Ibex basic synthesis flow using the latch-based register file.
- Commercial synthesis area numbers are a rough estimate of what might be achievable with a commercial synthesis flow and technology library.
- For comparison, the original "Zero-riscy" core yields an area of 23.14kGE using our Yosys synthesis flow.
- Verification status is a rough guide to the overall maturity of a particular configuration. Green indicates that verification is close to complete. Amber indicates that some verification has been performed, but the configuration is still experimental. Red indicates a configuration with minimal/no verification. Users must make their own assessment of verification readiness for any tapeout.
- v0.92 of the RISC-V Bit Manipulation Extension is supported. This is not ratified and there may be changes for the v1.0 ratified version. See Standards Compliance in the Ibex documentation for more information.
