Introduction: In the ever-evolving landscape of computer architecture, RISC-V stands out as an open-source instruction set architecture that offers flexibility and adaptability. To facilitate learning and exploration of RISC-V assembly language, a powerful tool has emerged—SharpRISCV. This browser-based RISC-V assembler supports building Linux ELF, Windows PE, Intel Hex, and RAW output, providing a comprehensive platform for enthusiasts and learners. Features: SharpRISCV supports the assembly of code for both Linux ELF and Windows PE formats. This versatility enables users to explore RISC-V on different operating systems, broadening the scope of learning and experimentation. Cross-Platform Support: The assembler generates output in multiple formats, including Linux ELF, Windows PE, Intel Hex, and RAW. This diversity caters to users with varied preferences and requirements, ensuring compatibility with different tools and environments. Output Formats: For Linux ELF and Windows PE outputs, SharpRISCV goes beyond basic assembly. It provides a hex dump visualization of the generated code, allowing users to inspect the machine code at a granular level. This feature aids in understanding the correspondence between assembly instructions and machine code. Hex Dump Visualization: SharpRISCV enhances the learning experience by offering interactive byte descriptions. Users can hover over specific bytes in the hex dump, and the tool provides detailed descriptions of the corresponding instructions. This interactive feature facilitates a deeper understanding of the RISC-V assembly language. Interactive Byte Descriptions: Supported Instruction Types: R Type U Type I Type B Type S Type J Type Assembler Directives: : Specifies the beginning of the text section. .text : Marks the beginning of the data section. .data and : Define string literals by adding a null terminator. .string .asciz .asciz : Reserves space for a word (32 bits). .word and : Handle high and low parts of a value, respectively. .%hi .%lo Accessing SharpRISCV: To start your RISC-V assembly journey, visit the RISC-V web interface at .
