Perfect STM32 Alternative
I switched from the Blue Pill to this RISC-V board and had no issues. The performance is comparable and the price is great.

Fast shipping and works
Arrived quickly. Tested the GPIO toggling and ADC readings, all accurate. Very satisfied.

Good board, learning curve
Hardware is solid. Took some time to configure the IDE correctly but once set up, it works smoothly.

Excellent for learning RISC-V
Great entry point into RISC-V architecture. Documentation is sufficient for most standard projects.
Q: Can I use 5V sensors directly?
A: No, the logic level is 3.3V. Please use a logic level converter for 5V sensors to avoid damage.
Q: Is the bootloader pre-installed?
A: Yes, the board comes with a bootloader that supports UART programming out of the box.
Q: Is this compatible with ST-Link programmers?
A: Yes, most ST-Link V2 programmers work via the SWD interface for flashing firmware.
Q: What is the power consumption?
A: It varies by use case, but typically runs around 20mA during active processing at 72MHz.
Q: Does it support Arduino libraries?
A: Many standard Arduino libraries work, but some hardware-specific ones may need adjustments for RISC-V.
