Quintauris, a global provider of RISC-V based solutions, announces RT-Europa Platform, the RISC-V gold standard reference for automotive real-time processors. It establishes a standardised foundation for building and integrating RISC-V processors with the expected performance for real-time applications, enabling the industry to secure the development from prototype to production.
RT-Europa Platform supports the Profile of the same name released by Quintauris in February of this year and expands the offering to a shared foundation for SoC design, system performance and interfacing, virtualisation, and ecosystem integration. This enables the automotive industry to leverage the unique value of RISC-V processors while secure platform compatible IPs, competitive use-case based performance, software interoperability, and formal validation and benchmarking based on Quintauris Test Automation Framework.
Built for determinism. Designed for integration
The platform introduces a system-level standardisation layer, ensuring interoperability and reliability across diverse IPs and software configurations, ensuring the necessary performance. The RT-Europa Platform, together with Quintauris Test Automation Framework, allows OEMs and Tier1 to evaluate and optimise different RISC-V IPs and software stacks implementations.
“With RT-Europa, we are providing the automotive RISC-V ecosystem with a concrete path to production-ready solutions,” said Angel Berrio, CPO of Quintauris. “By standardising system-level interfaces and validating real-time performance across hardware and software, RT-Europa allows developers to accelerate innovation, reduce integration risks, and bring next-generation automotive processors to market faster.”
This is not another major step, but the definitive step and real proof of Quintauris’ mission: accelerate RISC-V adoption through ecosystem alignment, necessary performance and interoperability assurance. RT-Europa makes RISC-V interoperability a reality in real-time processors, establishing a shared reference point for hardware and software vendors in the automotive industry.
Developed in collaboration with leading IP, software, and toolchain partners, RT-Europa Reference Architectures integrates different RISC-V IPs, operating systems, compilers, and debugging tools, establishing the path for RISC-V adoption at scale. By defining a shared reference point for real-time applications, the architecture supports automotive innovation while maintaining compliance with industry standards and functional safety requirements.
Key benefits of RT-Europa:
- Optimised and validated components for real-time performance.
- Standardised system-level architecture for RISC-V real-time applications.
- Ensures interoperability across IPs, software stacks, and tools.
- Accelerates prototype-to-production workflows for automotive developers.
Unveiling RT-Europa at CES 2026
Quintauris will showcase RT-Europa Reference Architectures at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, demonstrating how the platform enables automotive industry to effectively transition to RISC-V, benefit from its unique characteristics, with the required level of performance and the support of the software and tool ecosystem. In addition to RT-Europa Platform, Quintauris will showcase an early release of Quintauris Test Automation Framework (QNTAF), which will be available for demonstrations at Quintauris and Infineon space.
RT-Europa Platform will be available to customers and partners starting January 2026.
