The new $150 Single-Board Computer (SBC) from the pioneering open source BeagleBoard company is built around a RISC-V chip that has FPGA features built in. The BeagleV-Fire is built around the snappily named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microchip.com\/en-us\/product\/mpfs025t\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Microchip PolarFire MPFS025T FCVG484E<\/a>, a System on a Chip (SoC) that has five Reduced Instruction Set Coding Version 5 (<a href=\"https:\/\/riscv.org\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">RISC-V<\/a>) cores and a big chunk of FPGA fabric built in. That means it combines the speed of RISC-V processors with the flexibility of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), a big pile of logic gates that can be reprogrammed.<\/p>\n<p>The new BeagleV-Fire includes a sizeable chunk of FPGA to work with: the core chip includes 23 K logic elements and 68 Math blocks, plus 4 Serializer\/Deserializer (SerDer) lanes that can throw about 12.7 Gbps of data into and out of the fabric. On the BeagleV-Fire, the main chip is supported by 16 GB of eMMC and 2 GB of LPDDR4 RAM, plus a micro SD slot for extra storage. Gigabit Ethernet is also included, plus USB-C power and a few serial connections for debugging. There is no WiFi built in, but there is an M.2 Key E connection were you could plug in an a wireless adapter if you need it.<\/p>\n<p>Like most other BeagleBoards, the BeagleV-Fire has two headers with 92 pins, which offer access to pretty much every signal on the board, plus lots of analog to digital stuff that works with add-on boards (BeagleBoard refers to them as capes). Also present is the usual 22-pin CSI connector for attaching cameras and other devices.<\/p>\n<p>Want one? They are available for immediate order on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beagleboard.org\/boards\/beaglev-fire\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BeagleBoard.org<\/a> or from the usual suspects. It looks like they are already in stock for next-day delivery. If this all sounds familiar, it&rsquo;s probably because we&rsquo;ve been posting about this particular board for awhile now, covering both the <a href=\"https:\/\/hackaday.com\/2021\/01\/14\/risc-v-comes-to-the-beagleboard-ecosystem-with-upcoming-beaglev-sbc\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">announcement<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/hackaday.com\/2023\/07\/13\/at-last-a-beagle-v-in-the-wild\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">first tests<\/a>.<span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new BeagleBoard is on the way, full of FPGA hotness: the BeagleV-Fire has been announced.
