DeepComputing is a technology company based in Hong Kong that develops and sells RISC-V based hardware. Its flagship products are laptops, tablets and PC motherboards with various processors based on 64-bit RISC-V ISA.

History

DeepComputing is founded in 2022, at Sheung Wan, Hong Kong by Yuning Liang. In May, launch of first RISC-V based laptop was rumored by Calista Redmond, former CEO of RISC-V International, with photos of prototypes being shipped to them. In July, DeepComputing together with Xcalibyte (a software company co-founded by Yuning) unveiled DC ROMA, first commercially available laptop based on a RISC-V based microprocessor.[1][2] A month later it was revealed that the SoC inside is an Alibaba TH1520.[3]

In June 2024, DeepComputing released another laptop named DC ROMA II, claiming it to be the first RISC-V based laptop to run Ubuntu without any configuration. It was based on SpacemiT K1 SoC, an 8-core CPU running up to 2.0GHz.[4][5] In August, company announced the first ever RISC-V based tablet named DC ROMA PAD II, which was powered by the same K1 SoC.[6]
