The NOEL-V page reviewed on 12 November 2026 describes a synthesizable VHDL RISC-V processor model that can be dual-issue, designed for space with fault-tolerant features, adopted in ASICs and flight-proven in Earth orbit.
The official page states commercial licensing for proprietary designs (fault-tolerance features excluded from the open-source GPL variant) and space/FPGA/ASIC targets.
Architecture notes include advanced branch prediction, store-buffer cache controller, AMBA 2.0 AHB interface (optional L2/AXI4 subsystem), and standard synchronous memories. Fault tolerance includes patent-protected ECC for caches correcting single-bit and detecting multi-bit adjacent errors with optional scrubbing. Configurations tabulated include HP/GP/GP-lite/MC/MC-lite with RV32/RV64, optional MMU/PMP/hypervisor, and example software (Linux, VxWorks, RTEMS). Commercial licensing via GRLIB is stated separately from the GPL open-source version that omits fault-tolerance and high-performance FPU. Address Kungsgatan 12, 411 19 Gothenburg, Sweden is listed. Official page explicitly offers commercial licensing for proprietary NOEL-V use.

Bluespec Portable Cores are RISC-V soft processor IP offerings. The official home page lists Portable Cores (RISC-V Soft Cores), Domain-Specific Cores, and HW-Assisted Verification products, with Framingham contact details.
View solutionCloudBEAR BR-650 is licensable 64-bit RISC-V embedded CPU IP. The official product page states an in-order single-issue 8-stage pipeline optimized for low power and small area with configurable ISA extensions.
View solutionCodasip RISC-V processors are licensable, customizable RISC-V CPU IP. The official processors page states silicon-proven, RISC-V-compliant cores from embedded MCUs to application CPUs with architecture-license customization via Codasip Studio.
View solutionInCore publishes configurable RISC-V processor IP through an automated Core-hub generator that produces synthesizable core instances for custom semiconductor systems.

View solutionMi-V RV32 is the RISC-V soft CPU Microchip recommends for new FPGA designs. The reviewed page lists it for PolarFire SoC, PolarFire, RTG4, SmartFusion 2, and IGLOO 2 FPGAs, with design support in Libero SoC Design Suite. Optional configuration includes compressed instructions, multiply/divide, single-precision floating point, debug, and ECC. It is processor IP for those FPGAs, not portable ASIC CPU IP, and it is not the hardened RISC-V cluster in a PolarFire SoC device.
