Efinix® unveils three RISC-V® SoCs availability
KUALA LUMPUR, June 2 -- Efinix®, an innovator in programmable product platforms and technology has announced the availability of a series of three software defined, SoCs based on the popular RISC-V® core.
According to a statement, the three designs have been optimised for Efinix’s Trion® family of FPGAs and provide a range of compute and I/O capabilities in devices from the T8 to the T120.
“Based on Charles Papon’s powerful and efficient VexRiscv design, our Trion® family of SoCs delivers pre-optimised RISC-V cores across the entire Trion FPGA product line from the cost optimised T8 right up to the T120,” said Efinix senior director of marketing, Mark Oliver.
The SoCs are preconfigured with a RISC-V core, memory, a range of I/O and have interfaces for embedding user functions, whereby designers can easily create entire systems that include embedded compute and user defined accelerators within the same FPGA.
“Optimising the core into pre-defined configurations on the Trion family of FPGAs will give a much larger number of designers a turnkey and cost-effective way to access the power of the core in a broad variety of system designs,” said VexRiscv designer, Charles Papon.
Efinix RISC-V SoCs come with a complete set of tools for compiling and debugging application code on the RISC-V core along with example applications and tutorials.

Happy marriages drive employee creativity, innovation - study
KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 -- Research conducted by Professor Xu Huang from the School of Business of Hong Kong Baptist University suggests that a key to taking employee creativity to the next level is investing in their relationships at home.
According to a statement, the study looked at how satisfying marriages impact an employee’s ‘psychological resources’ at work - namely their ability to be creative and innovate useful solutions.
The study showed that employees satisfied with their marriages experience positive spillover of psychological resources into their work and when an employee’s spouse is also happy, this spillover effect is more pronounced and powerfully enriches workplace creativity.
This boost applies only to less creative employees, as highly creative individuals rely less on resources from a good marriage.
Marriages with dissatisfied spouses and less intimacy consume employees’ psychological resources, indicating that partners can exert strong influence over an employee’s work performance and a high-quality marriage is conducive to creativity at work.
Based on the statement, these are ways to support employee’s relationships and improve creativity at the office - see family-friendly policies as investments in innovation; observe spousal needs in work-life balance initiatives; and, prioritise relationships of less creative employees.
