In the Comments Below: Let Us Know What You Think About the Arduino Giga R1 WiFi!
The Arduino Giga R1 WiFi offers all the power of the STM32H7 in the accessible Mega form factor. The STM32H7 is the same processor used in the Portenta H7 board. In this video James compares with previous boards and discusses where it fits in with the rest of the Arduino family.
Features:
- Dual core (Cortex® M7 core at 480 MHz and Cortex® M4 at 240 MHz)
- 75 GPIO (12 analog, 13 PWM, 4 serial ports, 3 I2C, 2 SPI, 1 FDCAN, 1 SAI)
- USB A connector
- 1 3.5 mm audio jack connector
- Murata 1DX WiFi /BLE Module, up to 65 Mbps
- Wifi (802.11B/G/N)
- Bluetooth® Low Energy
- 24V Power Supply
- As opposed to Arduino Mega supporting only up to 12V, Giga supports up to 24V input
Benefits:
- 75 I/O Pins
- Allows you to connect multiple sensors and actuators without additional shields
- Ideal for Intermediate or Advanced makers using 3D printers and/or Machines or interactive installations with many sensors and actuator.
- Audio Processing
- High performance microcontroller provides fidelity to sound related projects + input/output jack + 2 DAC channels + 2 inputs for digital microphones
- Ideal for makers involved in analog synthesizer music or audio processing. It can be used for Synths; DSP, filtering, effects; and Recording & playback
- Advanced analog input capabilities
- Advanced makers can use high resolution analog inputs with OpAmp for lab equipment measurements
- Use USB-C or USB-A port to connect HID or mass storage
- Allows permanent storage of large quantities of data and the use keyboards or other USB devices as input
- Computer Vision
- Arducam-compatible pinout header making it ideal for computer vision projects
- Parallel Processing
- Powerful dual-core STM32H7 microcontroller + Remote Procedure Call mechanisms allows you to run user interface and real-time operations simultaneously on different cores
- Machine Learning
- TinyML compatible. Use the camera capabilities to train models and use them in the project
- Time keeping during power failure
- Internal RTC that can be powered from separate pin allowing machines to keep the time even after a power failure
- Internal RTC that can be powered from separate pin allowing machines to keep the time even after a power failure
