Hydrogen

This is a very basic platform as entry point for small microcontrollers with real-time capabilities.

It contains a 32-bit RISC-V CPU (RV32IMC) without caches and an AXI4 crossbar. Moreover, an on-chip RAM with a configurable size is connected as boot source and a mandatory machine timer and platform-level interrupt controller (PLIC) is added.

Helium

The helium platform is a foundation for microcontroller designs with a needs for more performance then the hydrogen.

It is very identical to the hydrogen platform but the CPU has instruction- and data-caches and branch predicition.
