Researchers at IIT-Madras developed India’s first microprocessorResearchers at IIT-Madras have developed India’s first Microprocessor which can be used in mobile computing devices, embedded low power wireless systems and networking systems and will help India to reduce its reliance on imported Microprocessors in Communications and Defence Sectors. A statement from the institute said that “the Microprocessor can be used by others as it is on par with International Standards”. The ‘SHAKTI’ family of microprocessors was fabricated at Semi-Conductor Laboratory of Indian Space Research Organizations (ISRO) in Chandigarh. It is the first 'RISC V Microprocessor' to designed and completely made in India. According to the statement the most crucial aspect of the indigenous design is the reduced risk of deploying the systems which may be affected by the backdoors and viruses. This achievement of India will assume huge significance when systems powered the SHAKTI microprocessors will be deployed in strategic sectors such as defense, nuclear power installations and Government Agencies and Departments. "With the advent of Digital India there are several applications that require customizable processor cores. The 180nm fabrication facility at SCL Chandigarh is crucial in getting these cores manufacturers within our Country," lead researcher Prof Kamakoti Veezhinathan, IIT Madras, said. In another statement IIT Madras said “SHAKTI processor family targets clock speeds to suit various end-user application devices such as various consumer electronic devices, mobile computing devices, embedded low power wireless systems and networking systems, among others”. The project is funded by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India. source https://www.brainbuxa.com/education-news/researchers-at-iit-madras-developed-indias-first-microprocessor-8804
