VisionFive 2: RISC-V Quad Core Low Cost SBC

StarFive VisionFive 2 RISC-V SBC review, including a demo of an engineering release of Debian, and of Python GPIO control. My previous “Explaining RISC-V” video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps0JFsyX2fU

Note that on January 10 2023, StarFive released an updated specification for the VisionFive 2, indicating that all four USB ports are now USB 3.0 (rather than two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0). So all of the ports are correctly coloured. The new datasheet is at: https://doc-en.rvspace.org/VisionFive2/PDF/VisionFive2_Datasheet.pdf

More information on the VisionFive 2 can be found on the StarFive website: https://www.starfivetech.com/en/site/boards And there is also a lot of information on AllNet: https://shop.allnetchina.cn/products/starfive-visionfive-2-quad-core-risc-v-dev-board -- where you can also purchase the board. Note that I do not have a commercial relationship with these companies and was not asked to post these links. The VisionFive 2 shown in the video was purchased via its initial KickStarter.
