Efinix announced availability of a series of three software defined, SoCs based on the RISC-V core, Ruby, Jade, and Opal.

The three designs have been optimized for Efinix's Trion family of FPGAs and provide compute and I/O capabilities in devices from the T8 to the T120.

The SoCs are preconfigured with a RISC-V core, memory, a range of I/O, and have interfaces for embedding user functions. In this way, designers can create entire systems that include embedded compute and user defined accelerators within the same FPGA.

Efinix RISC-V SoCs come with a complete set of tools for compiling and debugging application code on the RISC-V core along with example applications and tutorials. They are compatible with the entire suite of Efinix development and evaluation boards and can be instantiated using the standard Efinity tool flow.
