Check you burn a correct version of Maixpy Firmware.
This small board includes a built-in mic, speaker port, reset button, one extra button, HDMI and USB ports, an FPC connector for a mic array, a 40 pin HAT style GPIO header, and a choice for a Wi-Fi add-on SoM in addition to the corresponding antenna port.
They seem to have considered the ESP32-S3, however the BL808 module provided more processing power and RAM.
The table below shows the comparison between Sipeed M1, M1S and ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8 modules.
The opportunity to run Linux there’s extremely appealing, specifically for a WiFi-enabled module!
However I couldn’t find anything related within their github repos, so I’m wondering what’s the existing status of linux on this board.
There are multiple methods to program the boards from drag and drop apps as both the M1s Dock and M0Sense can be seen as mass storage devices, to a lightweight python script, and a more complete and flexible SDK with samples available on GitHub.
With open-source projects it’s always an uphill battle through hardware, software, modules, and permissions.
Sipeed says the board supports RTOS and Linux-based software, although I only see download links for Linux.
Available from AliExpress for less than $11 (plus $7 to ship to the United States), the little development board can be powered by way of a Bouffalo Lab BL808 low-power RISC-V processor.
Want to use that module with a different dock or carrier board?
It is possible to pick it up from the same AliExpress page for about $7.
So as to upload the application form to these devices, you’ll need OpenOCD with GD32V support.
Download the tarball for the OS from theSiPEED longan nano download site and extract it.
Otherwise, either the some elements of firmware or your model will be earsed.
Thus, I suggest to use a SD card to store the model and plug it in to the board when it’s needed.
cores.
A Chinese entity might get a fair amount of manufacturer support.
Why would anyone want to spend money on and support these T-Head Xuantie hardware in the M1s and Ox64.
Alibaba does believe in the Open hardware ideals that RISC-V is meant to represent and also states no-one can modify their cpu designs.
SiFive is quite open with their chips and the better platform for the community to place their effort behind.
Maix Speech AI lib, a fast and small speech lib running on embedded devices, including ASR, chat, TTS etc.
MAIX’s CPU has dual-core RISC-V 64bit IMAFDC, 8MB SRAM, Neural Network Processor (0.25~0.5TOPS), Audio Processor, Field Programable IO Array, DVP camera and MCU LCD interface.

The first script of Archlinux Image Builder create automatically the final patched Sameul kernel, with working WiFi, HDMI, usb ethernet dongles, and fully open source boot parts.
Analyzing the Sipeed M1 Dock Suit board, a robust RISC-V based board with the capacity of doing image processing.
Inherit the advantage of K210’s small footprint, Sipeed MAIX-I module, or called M1, integrate K210, 3-channel DC-DC power, 8MB/16MB/128MB Flash into Square Inch Module.
All usable IO breaks out as 1.27mm pins, and pin’s voltage is selectable from 3.3V and 1.8V.
During writing Sipeed had yet to check the device at its full 2.5GHz clock speed — instead benchmarking the chip at a lower 1.8GHz for reasons not yet specified.
” make an effort to predict the CoreMarks in 2.5GHz, it’ll be far more [high-performance than the] RPi4B.”
Embedded computing specialist Sipeed has teased a high-performance system-on-module built around the free and open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture — and claims it could out-perform the Raspberry Pi 4’s Arm Cortex-A72
For the board design and schematic, see repository, and read the blog post on the design process.
You can find solder pads for an optional SPI flash below the module.
For information, the connector and driver are compatibles between Sipeed LicheeRV and Sipeed Longan Nano, just need to adapt the resolution.
It can be ideal for tests in the event of problem with screen.
Currently sunxi-fel (from Sunxi-tools) lists the SoC as unknown.
See Allwinner_Nezha#Manual_build for build instructions.
For U-Boot, utilize the lichee_rv_dock_defconfig configuration.
Why Have I Been Blocked?
And for a few it’s also an excellent excuse for dropping a product without early notification if they see they don’t reach the prospective (i.e. crowd funding is a good way to gauge users’ interest).
The company also offered an enclosure for the Sipeed M1s Dock as shown above with a microSD card and the Sipeed M0Sense used for scale.
The Sipeed M1S is an update to the Kendryte K210-powered Sipeed M1 introduced several years ago.
This suit include 2.8 inch LCD too, and have an simple case for it.
- The handheld gaming companies often don’t care that much about openness, and even in the rare case that they do, letting anyone boot any kernel they like is usually as far as they care to go.
- Thanks for sharing and for doing all your best to put Linux on such tiny devices.

I’ll await aliexpress store, indiegogo shipping is outrageous.
Hmm very tempting 🙂 I just don’t have spare time for this at the moment otherwise I would definitely give this a go!
Thanks for sharing and for doing your far better put Linux on such tiny devices.

With four RISC-V cores running at 2.5GHz or more to 16GB of RAM, the compact Lichee Module 4 A aims to outperform Raspberry Pi’s best board.

“It beat RPi4B in Dhrystone and CoreMarks , prov RISC-V is qualified in HPC [High-Performance Computing] field.”
If there is a product or service you searching for and can’t think it is please let us know, we are happy to see if we can source it for you.
T-Head is one of the few chip design companies to publish their designs… That seems fairly open to me.
The mistake you’re making here is presuming that “the community” is a relevant voice in what happens to hardware.
There are exceptions, but that’s when a finish user device manufacturer is deliberately attempting to cultivate a community environment .
