The CORE-V CVE2 is a small 32 bit RISC-V CPU core (RV32IMC/EMC) with a two stage pipeline, based on the original zero-riscy work from ETH Zurich and Ibex work from lowRISC.

Build Status

Ibex RISC-V Core

Ibex is a small and efficient, 32-bit, in-order RISC-V core with a 2-stage pipeline that implements the RV32IMC instruction set architecture.

Ibex offers several configuration parameters to meet the needs of various application scenarios. The options include two different choices for the architecture of the multiplier and divider unit, as well as the possibility to drop the support for the "M" extension completely. In addition, the "E" extension can be enabled when opting for a minimum-area configuration.

This core was initially developed as part of the PULP platform under the name "Zero-riscy" [1], and has been contributed to lowRISC who maintains it and develops it further. It is under active development, with further code cleanups, feature additions, and test and verification planned for the future.

Documentation

The Ibex user manual can be read online at ReadTheDocs. It is also contained in the doc folder of this repository.
