PROFILE

Renzhi

Contributed to the Purdue-SoCET/RISCVBusiness repository by developing configurable hardware features and enhancing build reliability for a RISC-V processor. Implemented a dynamic selection mechanism in Verilog, allowing users to choose between pp_mul32 and shift_add_multiplier multiplier cores through configuration updates. Integrated the new 32-bit pp_mul32 core into the build system and expanded verification coverage by updating test cases and infrastructure, using SystemVerilog and Python scripting. Addressed build stability by correcting the Verilator binary path in the Python build script, ensuring consistent CI/CD workflows. The work enabled flexible hardware trade-offs and streamlined variant development while maintaining compatibility with existing processes.
