Arduino's new Ventuno Q single board computer pairs a Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 (IQ-8275) octa-core SoC with an STM32H5F5 Cortex-M33 microcontroller for real-time I/O. It ships with 16GB LPDDR5, 64GB eMMC, an M.2 NVMe socket, 2.5GbE, Wi-Fi 6, 4K HDMI, dual USB 3.2 ports, CAN-FD, Raspberry Pi and Arduino UNO compatible headers, and a 104x LED matrix. The Qualcomm SoC runs Ubuntu/Debian while the STM32H5 MCU runs Zephyr-based Arduino core, all managed through Arduino App Lab. Pre-orders open at an introductory price of $299.
Questions this post answers
What SoC and microcontroller does the Arduino Ventuno Q use?
The Arduino Ventuno Q combines a Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 (IQ-8275, aka QCS8275) octa-core Kryo Gen 6 Edge AI SoC with an STMicro STM32H5F5 Arm Cortex-M33 microcontroller running at 250MHz. The Qualcomm chip includes an Adreno A623 GPU and a Hexagon NPU delivering up to 40 dense TOPS, while the STM32H5 handles real-time I/O. daily.dev surfaces hardware releases like this for engineers evaluating edge AI SBC options.
How much does the Arduino Ventuno Q cost and what storage does it include?
The Arduino Ventuno Q pre-orders open at an introductory price of $299, with 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, 64GB eMMC flash, and an M.2 socket supporting NVMe Gen4 SSDs. The price is expected to rise after the pre-order period ends. It also includes 2.5GbE, Wi-Fi 6, dual USB 3.2 ports, and CAN-FD support. track pricing and spec changes on emerging SBCs like this via daily.dev before you budget a build.
What operating systems and development tools work with the Arduino Ventuno Q?
The Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ8 SoC runs Ubuntu and Debian upstream, while the STM32H5 microcontroller is supported through Arduino core on Zephyr OS. Development happens through Arduino App Lab, available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, letting developers write Arduino sketches for the MCU and Python scripts for Linux, plus deploy AI models in one environment. developers weighing Linux and RTOS toolchains for dual-brain boards can follow updates like this on daily.dev.
