Featured Developer
Our view of the world centers around the developer, the engineer, the user, the dreamer. It’s you who are contributing to RISC-V and open-source, which makes what we do at SiFive possible.
We’d like to give a shout to Microsemi for collaborating with us on the HiFive Unleashed Expansion Board. It is an exciting time in the RISC-V revolution, and our work together to reach the broader Linux market is another landmark.
Upgrading the HiFive Unleashed board allows developers to add custom peripherals to the board via PCIe, USB and other connections. The Expansion Board will be available for a limited time only at the cost of $1,999, or you can get the HiFive Unleashed and the Expansion Board as a bundle of $2,998.
Are you working on something interesting? We’d love to feature you next. Drop by and let us know what you are working on!
