About this item

The PINE64 STAR64 Model-A is a powerful, next-generation RISC-V single-board computer (SBC) designed for developers, hobbyists, and researchers exploring open-source hardware and software. It is built around the StarFive JH7110 SoC, featuring a quad-core 64-bit RISC-V processor (SiFive U74 cores), a GPU, and support for modern I/O standards—making it one of the most advanced RISC-V SBCs available today. This model includes 4GB of LPDDR4 system memory, enabling smooth multitasking, lightweight desktop use, and embedded computing applications. The board follows the Raspberry Pi Model-A form factor, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of existing cases and accessories. With dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB 3.0, PCIe 2.0, HDMI 2.0 output, and MIPI CSI/DSI, the STAR64 is highly versatile—suitable for networking, edge AI, multimedia, and IoT gateway projects. It also supports microSD boot and NVMe SSDs via PCIe. The STAR64 runs mainline Linux distributions and actively supports development for RISC-V platforms. It's an ideal board for those wanting to build, test, and deploy applications on a fully open, non-proprietary architecture—pushing the boundaries of open computing.
