Description
Master RISC-V architecture, assembly, calling convention and privilege modes. Debug real RISC-V systems using TRACE32, analyze Linux kernel and bootloader startup code, and prepare confidently for system software engineering interviews.
You will learn how to
• Explain RISC-V concepts clearly in engineering interviews
• Understand registers, CSRs, and assembly execution
• Control and debug privilege modes step by step
• Use TRACE32 to inspect registers and instruction flow
• Analyze Linux kernel behavior on RISC-V systems
• Read bootloader and kernel startup code with confidence
Why RISC-V Matters for Your Career
RISC-V is rapidly becoming a standard architecture for system and embedded software.
Leading semiconductor companies and startups adopt RISC-V for next-generation products:
• Adopted by leading semiconductor companies (e.g: Qualcomm, NVIDIA, NXP, and Infinion)
• Widely used in embedded and system software products
• Growing rapidly in AI and high-performance computing
• Actively researched in universities and graduate programs
• Increasingly required in system software interviews
RISC-V is becoming a core skill for embedded and system software engineers. Understanding RISC-V architecture and registers is now essential for low-level development. Companies expect engineers to debug RISC-V systems, not just write code. This course teaches real RISC-V internals using hands-on TRACE32 debugging.
If you work close to hardware, learning RISC-V accelerates your career growth.
