002 - MilkV Duo, a $9 Linux board 

Thanks! Glad you liked it! Yeah the 8051 was totally unexpected!

Had to go back and read that again, at first I thought you meant you'd never heard of 8051 and I felt incredibly old for a moment until I realised (I hope) you meant that you didn't know there was an 8051 in the Duo...

@@M0UAW_IO83 yes that is exactly right. I have used different flavours of 8051, from the small 2051 and 4051 from Atmel to those beasts from Dallas (can't recall the pn now). But I was never expecting to find an 8051 core inside a new application processor in 2023! Lol

@@M0UAW_IO83Yeah bit of a mixed bag. I knew of the 8051 from way back when, but not of the more modern 80251 and similar as I expect is actually used in this

in circuit cellar 5 steve ciarcia made a supercomputer with 64 8751's as slave processor nodes. with smt versions it might be pretty tiny, and worth a shot at doing a modern build of. what might be possible with these milkv's?

Thanks! They are coming soon!

Thanks!

Yes it is! I was totally not expecting all the builtin features!

Good to know!

Thanks for watching! More to come!

Thanks! I am glad you liked it!

I am glad in was useful!

Maybe, these SoCs are intended for use with cameras and there is no point on doing cameras without some sort of CV//ML/AI these days, but depending on which Raspberry Pi you are talking about, a RB Pi (most of them) is gonna have a lot more horse power (aka CPU speed) to perform CV-related processing compared to these SoCs, not to mention that RAM size can also be a constraint.

I guess I was lucky!

Yep, I just noticed my link to the datasheet was broken and updated it. The new datasheet still does not show any details on power consumption, just the approximate 500mW for the hypothetical usecase.

Interesting. Why are you planning to ruin Ubuntu on this machine? Any reason in particular?

​@@non_maskable_interrupt with what else if not with Ubuntu?

What I mean is that Ubuntu is a distro. But Buildroot can build anything so you add packages (apt?) to mimic a Debian system like Ubuntu or you can do something else. AFAIK the default package management on Buildroot is opkg which is much more lightweight than apt. But if you want desktop-like experience and turnkey then Ubuntu core might probably make your life easier. Thanks for your comments!

64MB. What a dream i had about this when i developed my master thesis project. Now it won't even run an installer 🤣

It has RNDIS over USB and there is an I/O board that includes an Ethernet connector and a USB hub with four ports! Of course it adds up to the cost...

Actually it has Ethernet pinout on the side where sd card located. But integrated wifi would be much better

Lol! Thanks for the feedback, yeah I am still playing with all these things, but it is hard to find the right balance!

Hi! Yes, a Brazilian living in Canada! You can easily tell by the accent and poor vocabulary! Lol

Lol yeah Donald Duck or more like Chipmunk!

Lol Donald Duck is an icon! But yeah it was an experiment, I did not want the video to be too long and boring so I thought fast-forward would be a good idea, but now I can see it did not help!

RU-vid can change speed of video :)

Sorry to disappoint!
