This work presents a SystemC-TLM based simulator for a RISC-V microcontroller. This simulator is focused on simplicity and easy expandable of a RISC-V. It is built around a full RISC-V instruction set simulator that supports full RISC-V ISA and extensions M, A, C, Zicsr and Zifencei. The ISS is encapsulated in a TLM-2 wrapper that enables it to communicate with any other TLM-2 compatible module. The simulator also includes a very basic set of peripherals to enable a complete SoC simulator. The running code can be compiled with standard tools and using standard C libraries without modifications. The simulator is able to correctly execute the riscv-compliance suite. The entire simulator is published as a docker image to ease its installation and use by developers. A porting of FreeRTOSv10.2.1 for the simulated SoC is also published.
