GRVI is an FPGA-efficient RISC-V RV32I soft processor core, hand technology mapped and floorplanned for best performance/area as a processing element (PE) in a parallel processor. GRVI implements a 2 or 3 stage single issue pipeline, typically consumes 320 6-LUTS in a Xilinx UltraScale FPGA, and currently runs at 300-375 MHz in a Kintex UltraScale

GRVI (“Groovy”)
Gray Research RISC-V RV*I
• Purpose: efficient parallel processing element.
• Scalar, 2-3 stage pipeline RV32I+- + MUL/Hopt
– 300-375 MHz (KU-2), 1.3-1.6? CPI
– ~320 6-LUTs
– ~1 “MIPS”/LUT


It's not quite a conformant RISC-V - some bits missing, some extra. But 320 LUTs is pretty good.
