Leading the RISC-V Revolution, SiFive Aims to Take the Computing Industry Throne

During his fascinating career, Jack Kang has had the opportunity to work on iconic, massively successful products like the Microsoft Xbox Kinect and Nintendo Switch. Today, as one of the founding members of SiFive, Kang works alongside several of the creators of the RISC-V ISA to bring new products to market. 

SiFive is developing products based on the open RISC-V standard to deliver high-performance, low-power density processors for applications from wearables to data centers, edge computing, and aerospace.

The highlights of this conversation between Kang and our Moore’s Lobby host, Daniel Bogdanoff, include:

-His big career break 

-The transition from huge companies to a startup

-Open-source versus open-standard

-The security system that SiFive donated to the RISC-V community
