On September 25, Beijing ESWIN Computing Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “ESWIN Computing”), a subsidiary of ESWIN Group, appeared at the 2023 Beijing International Seminar on Micro-Electronics and IC WORLD Conference, showcasing a variety of ICs and solutions used in automotive, consumer electronics, display panels, white goods, and industrial appliances.

ESWIN Computing is committed to the RISC-V boom

Dr. He Ning, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of ESWIN Computing, delivered a speech at the summit forum titled Breakthrough at the Bottom, Integration and Innovation, Promoting the Industrialization and Ecological Expansion of RISC-V, in which he shared the strategic framework, industrialization achievements and experiences of ESWIN Computing around RISC-V, as well as the ecological expansion under the opportunity of breakthroughs in digital underlying technology.

Dr. He Ning said: “RISC-V inherits the advantages of the previous computing architecture, abandons the historical baggage, and has the characteristics of open source, streamlining, efficient, modular, and scalable, which is very suitable for the rich market demand under the wave of new technologies. ”

On February 27, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the Overall Layout Plan for the Construction of Digital China, pointing out that the construction of digital China is an important engine for promoting Chinese-style modernization in the digital era and a strong support for building new competitive advantages for the country. Among them, consolidating digital infrastructure and improving the data resource system are the two key foundations. Dr. He said, “The need for independent innovation of underlying technologies is becoming increasingly urgent, and the RISC-V computing architecture is expected to be the underlying key technology of the new digital infrastructure, which will strongly support the construction of a new generation of digital infrastructure and meet the requirements of strengthening the digital technology innovation system and digital security barrier.”

As a provider of next-generation computing architecture IC and solutions with RISC-V as the foundation, ESWIN Computing has been firmly committed to the RISC-V strategy since its inception and has actively promoted RISC-V R&D, innovation and industrialization. He Ning said: “ESWIN Computing's experience and thinking in promoting the industrialization of RISC-V can be summarized into three points:

The first is to drive large-scale product applications in scenarios such as automotive, display panels, consumer electronics, white goods, and industrial appliances. For any customer in these five scenarios, we can provide a variety of RISC-V architecture products, which greatly enhances customers' awareness of RISC-V and enhances customers' confidence in the implementation of RISC-V applications.

The second is to provide competitive and abundant products through underlying technological innovation, and drive the industrialization promotion of RISC-V with product competitiveness. We believe that the best way for new technologies to be implemented is to fully reflect the advantages of this technology in product competitiveness and form industry-leading products, which in turn can greatly enhance the influence of RISC-V and promote the accelerated implementation of this new technology.

The third is to support product innovation with self-developed high-quality core capabilities. We have developed self-developed 32-bit and 64-bit serialized CPU IPs, and in the face of different needs of customers, self-developed cores can be tailored, customized and optimized to maximize product performance, reduce costs and power consumption, and enhance product competitiveness, so as to better serve customers. ”

At the same time, he appealed: “The natural maturity process of the ecology is long, and the industry needs to unify its understanding, clarify the direction, and plan at the top level to accelerate the development of the RISC-V ecosystem, so as to provide the source power for the underlying technological breakthroughs and independent innovation of the chip industry.”

As of September 2023, ESWIN Computing's self-developed 32-bit and 64-bit serialized CPU IPs have been applied to nearly 40 products on a large scale, from low power consumption and low cost to high cost performance.

At IC WORLD, ESWIN Computing showcased ICs and chipsets used in automotive microcontrollers, automotive communications, multimedia, display interaction, wireless connectivity, edge computing, etc., including RISC-V automotive MCUs based on domestic process platforms and a complete RISC-V core software ecosystem, ultra-high-definition TV SoCs with super depth-of-field image quality processing, Monitor Scaler based on domestic process platforms and self-developed RISC-V processors, Highlight products such as small cell RF transceiver chips that use RISC-V architecture to play a key role in 5G deployment, and ESL MCUs that use ultra-low-power and ultra-cost-effective RISC-V customized processor cores.
