RISC-V Architecture Mastery: A Complete Guide to Open CPU Design, Custom ISA Extensions, SoC Development

By Silas Callen

RISC-V Architecture Mastery is the definitive guide to understanding and engineering with the world's fastest-growing open CPU architecture. Designed for hardware engineers, embedded developers, system designers, and advanced students, this book dives into the core principles of RISC-V ISA design, base and extension sets, custom instructions, toolchains, microarchitecture pipelines, and complete SoC development workflows.
Readers will learn how to build and optimize RISC-V processors, implement custom ISA features, work with GCC/LLVM toolchains, debug firmware, and design high-performance embedded systems. With deep dives into RV32/64/128, machine mode, privileged architecture, memory protection, interrupts, compilers, FPGA prototyping, and hardware acceleration, this book equips readers with the skills needed to contribute to the global open-hardware revolution.
