RISC-V on FPGA: Application Development & Porting
VIT Vellore
📌About the Event
RISC-V on FPGA: Application Development & Porting is a 2-day national hands-on workshop by VIT Vellore for students and researchers interested in VLSI, embedded systems, FPGA, RISC-V programming, Verilog, and RTOS porting. This is not a competition with winners/prizes; it is a skill-building technical workshop where participants learn to develop applications for custom RISC-V SoCs and implement them on FPGA platforms
