I don't understand why they are paying the royalties for an arm core?<p>I thought CPU transition was acted. We would still tolerate a HDMI block instead of/with a displayport block and a h26[45] codec block instead of/with a AV1 codec block.<p>I would favor the milk-v duo with the cv1800 SOC instead (free from arm cores and with a 64bits risc-v mcu).
C906 is pre-1.0 V.<p>Note that there exist chips like the kendryte k230, with C908, which has the ratified 1.0 V spec.<p>This makes this chip much less interesting, although still useful where this does not matter.
