Hi, I’m a junior dev that has recently changed paths to work on the hardware side of things and i’m currently working on an engineering degree in mecatronics and embedded systems.

I was really interested in the risk V architecture and took a deep dive into it but couldn’t find ressources to start learning about working with it at my own pace, only online classes, certifications and such which don’t correspond to my usecase because for now it’s just a hobby I wanna learn more about without it impacting the time I spend on my actual classes.

I was wondering if you knew any ressources to try and learn that don’t take your for a complete idiot trying to teach you how a computer works but still explains the basics and allows you to learn at your own pace

Hey, thats great, that you want to learn about RISC-V as a Mechatronics engineering student. Here are some of the useful resources that i would like to recommend.

  1. The RISC-V Reader by David Patterson and Andrew Waterman
  2. RISC-V unprivileged ISA Specification (Website)
  3. Ripes Simulator (GitHub)
  4. QEMU ( for running RISC-V Linux and bare-metal)
  5. Learning RISC-V (Ethan Miller)
    Hope this will help.
