Meet the Petros CH32H417M Alef—a compact, powerful breakout board engineered for high‑speed data acquisition, embedded vision, and next‑gen IoT projects. Designed by XPU Laboratory and powered by Qinheng’s dual‑core RISC‑V MCU, it packs flagship performance into a Raspberry Pi Pico‑compatible form factor.

Core Powerhouse: CH32H417MEU6 MCU
At its heart lies the CH32H417MEU6 (QFN88), a dual‑core RISC‑V MCU:
- RISC‑V5F @ 400MHz + RISC‑V3F @ 144MHz
- 896KB SRAM + 960KB Flash
- USB 3.0 (5Gbps) with 430MB/s real‑world downstream speed
- 144MHz DVP interface for high‑resolution cameras
- Dual 12‑bit ADC (5Msps) + 10‑bit HSADC (20Msps)
- 10/100M Ethernet, USB 2.0, and SerDes connectivity
Compact & Compatible Design
- Size: 52mm × 21mm, ultra‑compact
- 100% form‑factor compatible with Raspberry Pi RP2040 Pico
- All GPIO pins accessible for easy prototyping
- 40‑pin HRS DF12NB(3.0)‑40DP‑0.5V(51) board‑to‑board connector
- Exposes DVP, SPI, I2C, ADC for sensor expansion
