Geniatech XPI-7110 is a RISC-V single-board computer (SBC) built on StarFive JH7110 with a form factor similar to that of a Raspberry Pi 3 and equipped with up to 8GB of RAM, 256GB of eMMC storage. It comes with various I/O options including USB ports, HDMI 2.0, GbE Ethernet, Wi-Fi/BT, GPIO, camera, display, and much more. The company also mentions that the board will be available in both commercial and industrial variants and will include a 10+ year lifecycle
The new Geniatech board is very similar to the Milk-V Mars that we wrote about a few months ago. Additionally, we have written about PineTab-V, Pine64 Star64 SBC, and Milk-V Meles SBC all of which are built around the StarFive JH7110 or T-Head TH1520 RISC-V SoC, feel free to check those out if you are interested in the topic.

Other than the above specifications, I can see the board has an MS621FE RTC battery and three buttons, the functions of which are not disclosed by the company. Additionally, I could not find any official documentation or pinout for the board, but as this StarFive JH7110 board is Raspberry Pi compatible, it is safe to assume that the pins will also be compatible. However, whether it can deliver enough current through the pins to power the board is still unknown.
In terms of software also the company mentions that the Geniatech XPI-7110 SBC will support Debian Linux, but it could easily support other Linux distributions, or why not, even Android if that’s your thing.
At the time of writing the company did not mention any pricing information but further information can be found on the product’s page and in the announcement.
