Pico Plus RV1103 Linux AI Development Board with CortexA7 RISCV NPU, Edge AI Acceleration, Ethernet Port Description

Pico mini Linux development board (RV1103based) Overview A compact Linux development board built on the RV1103 chip. Features a single core ARM CortexA7 32bit core with NEON and FPU, plus a builtin RISCV MCU for lowpower tasks and fast startup. Designed for quick prototyping of vision, AI, and embedded networking applications. Key benefits efficiency video encoding: Intelligent encoding adapts to scene content and reduces bit rate by more than 50 percent compared to conventional CBR mode. Captured images remain definition while files shrink and usable storage effectively increases. Ondevice AI acceleration: Builtin fourthgeneration NPU supports mixed quantization formats int4, int8, and int16. Delivers up to 1.0 TOPS for int4 and 0.5 TOPS for int8, providing accurate and efficient inference for common edge models. Fast, lowpower operation: RISCV MCU enables lowpower fast startup and 250 ms fast capture. AI model library can load at startup so facial recognition and similar tasks can complete within 1 second. Balanced memory and I O: 64 MB 16bit DDR2 DRAM provides the memory bandwidth needed for imaging and AI tasks. Default onboard storage is 128 MB SPI NAND flash. Integrated peripherals: Builtin POR, audio codec, and MAC PHY simplify system design and reduce external component count. Core specifications Processor: CortexA7 at 1.2 GHz single core (32bit) with NEON and FPU, plus integrated RISCV MCU NPU: Fourthgeneration onchip accelerator; supports int4, int8, int16; up to 1.0 TOPS for int4 and 0.5 TOPS for int8 ISP: Image signal processor supports up to 4 megapixel input at 30 frames per second Memory: 64 MB 16bit DDR2 DRAM Storage: Default SPI NAND flash 128 MB USB: USB 2.0 Host and Device Camera: MIPI CSI 2lane interface GPIO and serial: 25 GPIO pins plus UART, SPI, I2C Network: 10/100 M Ethernet controller with embedded PHY Other: Builtin POR, audio codec, MAC PHY Developer features Standard, accessible interfaces for quick development and debugging: MIPI CSI, USB, UART, SPI, I2C, and GPIO. Compact Linuxready platform suitable for deploying edge AI models and camera applications. Onboard resources and integrated peripherals reduce the need for external components during prototyping. Practical applications Drone and robot vision: Lightweight edge AI for object detection, tracking, and streaming with reduced bandwidth usage and extended flight or operation time. Smart home and access control: Doorbell or indoor camera solutions using ondevice facial recognition and efficient storage for longterm recording. Industrial monitoring and retail: Realtime anomaly detection, shelf monitoring, and people counting with lowlatency inference and reduced network bandwidth. What makes this board stand out Combination of a CortexA7 application core, a RISCV MCU for fast lowpower tasks, and a dedicated NPU for edge inference. Intelligent encoding that significantly lowers storage and transmission demands without sacrificing image quality. Rich I O and integrated peripherals that simplify system design for imaging, audio, and networking use cases. This RV1103based Pico mini Linux development board provides a compact, capable platform for developers building vision, AI, and embedded networked devices.
