[AI summary] This article dives into the internals of the RI5CY core, a 4-stage in-order pipelined RISC-V core. It discusses the decoder and register file, essential for customizing the core, particularly for adding new instructions and integrating cryptographic extensions like XCrypto. The article also compares RISC-V's compressed instructions with ARM's Thumb mode, highlighting differences in code density and implementation.

It's a simple question really: how can you read and write to the same register in a single-cycle processor? If you have spent most of your life working with software, it is tempting to think of all events as happening sequentially. However, that sequential model that we have become so familiar with as software engineers is really an abstraction that hardware offers to us to help our simple brains reason about logic.
