STMicroelectronics has joined Quintauris GmbH as its sixth shareholder. ST joins other Quintauris shareholders: Robert Bosch GmbH, Infineon Technologies AG, Nordic Semiconductor ASA, NXP Semiconductors and Qualcomm Technologies.

Quintauris was founded in December 2023 to advance the adoption of products based on RISC-V principles. This will include access to reference architectures and assistance in the creation of versatile, cross-industry solutions. The initial core industry applications will be for the automotive sector, with a planned expansion to mobile and IoT.

RISC-V is an open-standard Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), originally developed by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, in 2010.

“ST is a welcome addition to our list of shareholders,” said Alexander Kocher, the CEO of Quintauris.“By fostering collaboration between the world’s largest semiconductor companies, we aim to explore and unlock the potential of RISC-V for all the industries we will serve.”
