First RISC-V mainboard for modular laptop
By Nick Flaherty, eeNews Europe (February 7, 2025)
A RISC-V processor board is available for the first time for the modular Framework laptop as a development system.
The DC-Roma mainboard from DeepComputing can be used with the Framework Laptop 13. The board uses the StarFive JH7110 processor, based on four U74 RISC-V cores from SiFive. with 8GB of LPDDR4 soldered memory and uses MicroSD/eMMC storage. and runs Ubuntu or Fedora Linux.
“This is very much a developer-focused board to help accelerate maturing the software ecosystem around RISC-V, so we recommend waiting for future RISC-V products if you’re looking for a consumer-ready experience,” says Framework.
