CODASIP (abrev. CO-Design Application-Specific Instruction-set Processor) is a processor technology company enabling system-on-chip developers to differentiate their products. The company specializes in RISC-V processor technologies and offers Codasip Studio, a tool suite for processor design using the CodAL architecture description language.

CODASIP technology is used in nearly 2 billion processors worldwide.[1][2][3]

History

In 2014, Codasip was founded on the basis of Karel Masařík's PhD work on a distinct hardware/software co-design technology, after a decade of intensive research at Brno University of Technology.

At the same year, the company secured a seed funding round of $4.5M, led by Credo Ventures.[4]

In 2015, Codasip co-founded RISC-V International (initially known as RISC-V Foundation) and also launched the first commercial RISC-V processor IP on the market.[5]

In 2017, Codasip unveiled its first 64-bit RISC-V core.[6]

In 2018, Codasip completed a Series A investment round, raising $10M from private equity firms.[7][8]

In 2020, the company received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 program.[9]

At the same year, Codasip opened a strategic design center in France[10] followed by another in the United Kingdom in 2021.[11] That same year, Ron Black assumed the role of CEO.[12][13]
