Abstract: In the contemporary world, electronics play a massive role in every major application. There is always a demand for processors which have high performance in terms of power, delay and area. Various architectures are used in modern day applications but most of them are proprietary. However, they are quite restrictive, non-customisable and expensive. RISC-V being an instruction set architecture with open-source software and easily customisable makes it more reliable and facilitates in augmenting the architecture, instruction set and performance. In this paper, a 32-bit RISC-V processor is designed and implemented using the standard cells created using Modified Gate Diffusion Input (MGDI) technique through standard cell library characterisation. Standard cell characterisation is performed and ib and.lef files are generated using 180 nm library using Cadence Virtuoso tool. Semi-custom design of the 32-bit RISC-V processor and the synthesis using the customised standard cell library are done using the Cadence Genus tool and the analysis of power, delay and area are performed. In this paper, the comparison using minimum number of standard cells and increased number of standard cells in the library are analysed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
