0 tech docs/info on that chinese SoC which is used in the new BeagleV-Ahead?
<Guest34>
no PRUs are a deal breaker
<zmatt>
Guest34: PRU is TI-specific and afaik TI isn't doing anything with RISC-V, so a RISC-V board with PRU is just not a thing that can exist
<Guest34>
I understand. Hopefully the BB Black will get a new release soon using aa AM62x
<zmatt>
Guest34: there's the BeaglePlay, though it's not quite a beaglebone
<zmatt>
obviously the BBB will never be anything other than AM335x, since if you swap the SoC out it would no longer be a BBB
<Guest34>
BeaglePlay is nothing like a BBB though
<zmatt>
true
<Guest34>
The BBB just needs a better CPU, more RAM, and more storage. Keep everything else the same. 512MB ram makes running browsers in kiosk mode slow
<zmatt>
the BBB doesn't "need" these things, *you* need these things... that's not the same thing :P
<zmatt>
don't get me wrong, I'd also appreciate an AM62x, but even if an AM62x-based board in beaglebone form factor were available today we'd still continue buying BBBs since a different SoC is not going to be pin-compatible

what would that better CPU be?
