It succeeds the earlier Avaota F1 (based on the Allwinner V821), though it drops WiFi support found on that board. Hardware design files are available on GitHub under a CC0 license, while software is distributed via Allwinner's Tina Linux SDK (OpenWrt 21.04 fork, Linux 6.6), with documentation currently only in Chinese. The board is now sold on AliExpress for $51.59. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What are the specs of the Allwinner V861 SoC used in the Avaota F2 board? The Allwinner V861M2-XXX SoC features a dual-core RISC-V XuanTie C907 CPU clocked up to 1.4GHz with RVV 1.0 extensions, plus a single-core XuanTie E907 at up to 800MHz. It includes 128MB on-chip DDR3 memory, an H.264/H.265 video encoder supporting up to 4K at 25fps, (M)JPEG encoding up to 8192x8192, and a 1 TOPS INT8 NPU called AI-ISP 2.0. _Hardware tinkerers comparing RISC-V SoCs for camera projects can track releases like this on daily.dev._ ### How does the Avaota F2 differ from the earlier Avaota F1 camera board? The Avaota F2 upgrades from the Allwinner V821 SoC to the newer V861, adding support for 4K camera sensors (versus just Full HD), PTZ motor control via an integrated AXP333 power management chip, and better audio with one speaker and two microphone connectors. However, it loses the built-in WiFi that the F1 included, and memory moves from 64MB DDR2 to 128MB DDR3. _Developers deciding between SBC generations for camera builds often follow comparisons like this on daily.dev._ ### Where can I get the hardware design files and software for the Avaota F2 board? Hardware design files, including PDF schematics, EasyEDA Pro PCB files, Gerber files, a 3D STEP file, bill of materials, and pick-and-place instructions, are available on GitHub under a CC0 license. Software runs on Allwinner's Tina Linux SDK, an OpenWrt 21.04 fork with Linux 6.6, though documentation is currently only available in Chinese. _Makers sourcing open-source hardware files for RISC-V boards can keep up with releases like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [A Linux-capable Allwinner F101 RISC-V SBC with Raspberry Pi Pico form factor](https://daily.dev/posts/a-linux-capable-allwinner-f101-risc-v-sbc-with-raspberry-pi-pico-form-factor-gpwuzkjmn) · CNX Software · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [This Tiny SBC Lets You Swap Interface Modules for Voice, Vision or Sensing](https://daily.dev/posts/this-tiny-sbc-lets-you-swap-interface-modules-for-voice-vision-or-sensing-scmsawzzq) · It's Foss · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CVITEK CV1842H-P-based edge AI camera module offers night vision and AI-ISP support \(Crowdfunding\)](https://daily.dev/posts/cvitek-cv1842h-p-based-edge-ai-camera-module-offers-night-vision-and-ai-isp-support-crowdfunding--rnkzluhxb) · CNX Software · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [I ran three home server apps on the Orange Pi Zero 3W to see where it would break, but it hasn't](https://daily.dev/posts/i-ran-three-home-server-apps-on-the-orange-pi-zero-3w-to-see-where-it-would-break-but-it-hasn-t-hzy5urb1j) · XDA Developers · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#hardware](https://daily.dev/tags/hardware), [#embedded](https://daily.dev/tags/embedded) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/allwinner-v861-risc-v-sbc-targets-ai-cameras-with-ptz-and-audio-support-ubmabc6la) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Allwinner V861 RISC-V SBC targets AI cameras with PTZ and audio support","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/allwinner-v861-risc-v-sbc-targets-ai-cameras-with-ptz-and-audio-support-ubmabc6la","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/allwinner-v861-risc-v-sbc-targets-ai-cameras-with-ptz-and-audio-support-ubmabc6la"},"datePublished":"2026-10-02T02:05:53.940Z","dateModified":"2026-10-02T23:00:16.276Z","description":"The Avaota F2 is a new open-source hardware single-board computer built around Allwinner's dual-core 64-bit RISC-V V861 SoC, featuring 128MB on-chip DDR3...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2eb9638d60ab3a1ad321dfcceaafdcd0?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2eb9638d60ab3a1ad321dfcceaafdcd0?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"CNX Software","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"CNXSoft","url":"https://daily.dev/cnxsoft","image":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1366138?v=4","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"EndorseAction"},"userInteractionCount":510}},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/allwinner-v861-risc-v-sbc-targets-ai-cameras-with-ptz-and-audio-support-ubmabc6la","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"hardware,embedded","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"CNX Software","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/cnx-software"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Allwinner V861 RISC-V SBC targets AI cameras with PTZ and audio support"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/allwinner-v861-risc-v-sbc-targets-ai-cameras-with-ptz-and-audio-support-ubmabc6la#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What are the specs of the Allwinner V861 SoC used in the Avaota F2 board?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"The Allwinner V861M2-XXX SoC features a dual-core RISC-V XuanTie C907 CPU clocked up to 1.4GHz with RVV 1.0 extensions, plus a single-core XuanTie E907 at up to 800MHz.
