Abstract:

Intelligent terminals are accelerating towards being lightweight, low-power, highly secure, and customizable. The authorization constraints, power consumption bottlenecks, and lack of flexibility in traditional chip architectures can no longer meet the innovative demands of multiple scenarios. The Reduced Instruction Set Computing-V (RISC-V) architecture, with its core advantages of being open-source and free, modular and customizable, low-power, and highly scalable, has broken the monopoly of traditional architectures and become a key support for the transformation and upgrading of the intelligent terminal industry. By focusing on technological breakthroughs, ecosystem building, and industrial collaboration, an optimization path is proposed to enhance the adaptability and synergy between RISC-V and intelligent terminals, helping to promote high-quality development of the industry.

Key words: RISC-V, intelligent terminals, open-source ecosystem, low power consumption
