Are you the one born with enthusiasm towards programming and microprocessors? Here is an opportunity for you to join the microprocessor development activities of Aalto Microelectronics Research Center ( ). RISC-V is an open-source microprocessor instruction set, which is gaining interest in academia and industry. In Aalto, Department of Electronics and nanoengineering, we have developed our own open-source RISC-V core implementation that we can use as a controller in our mixed-mode System-on-Chip designs.

We are looking for enthusiastic Master thesis workers (2) and Doctoral researchers (2) to work with us on this area of research. In this position we provide hands-on education on Digital So C design to fulfill the rapidly growing need of Finnish electronics industry.

Topic focuses on improving current RISC-V implementation and merging it with digital and analog signal processing and cryptography accelerators and sensor interfaces advancing to implementation on silicon or verification on FPGA according to your preferences. The position is appropriate for M.Sc. And Ph D students eager to learn, with a hint of enthusiasm to go where very few have gone before.
