\item Cover a lot of different scenarios (embedded, tablets, industrial,
netbooks, crypto-currency mining).
- \item Decent performance with high efficiency. RISC-V: 40 \%
+ \item Decent performance with high efficiency. RISC-V: 40\%
more efficient than ARM / Intel. Shakti a good
candidate: 2.5ghz and 120mW per core @ 22nm.
\item 1080p video: y'all gotta watch cute kittens on youtube, right?

+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Been done before, but not as a Libre Design.
+ \vspace{4pt}
+ \item GPIO Banks need per-bank VREF (1.8v? to 3.3v)\\
+ IO pads need built-in
+ level-shifting to convert to CPU VCORE
+ \vspace{4pt}
+ \item Each core needs independent variable-voltage capability
+ and independent shut-down (PMIC supplies external voltage)
+ \vspace{4pt}
+ \item DDR RAM still needs refreshing (even in sleep mode)
+ \vspace{4pt}
+ \item Extra RV32 (PicoRV32?) always-on core for wake-up / RTC?
+ \vspace{4pt}
+ \item PLLs are Analog. fun fun fun in the sun sun sun...
+ \end{itemize}
+ {\it Really need help here. PLLs, Analog stuff: very specific
+ domain expertise. Fall-back: license proprietary HDL.
