The prebuilt images provided by ESWIN Computing are also available on GitHub; you can follow the instructions there to install the software yourself. In our last post about the EBC7700 SBC, we mentioned a possible issue with future Ubuntu versions. The same applies to the new EBC7702 Mini-DTX Mainboard. Ubuntu 25.10 and later will require the RVA23 profile with Vector and Hypervisor extensions, which the EIC7702X SoC with RV64GC cores does not have. This means the board will officially support only Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, and upgrades to newer Ubuntu versions may not be (easily) feasible. This is not the first time we’ve seen a RISC-V motherboard using the Mini-DTX form factor. We notably saw the HiFive Premier P550 motherboard, which comes in the same form factor and uses the EIC7700X SoC found in the EBC7700 SBC. According to Canonical’s official announcement, the ESWIN EBC7702 Mini-DTX RISC-V motherboard is not yet generally available for purchase but will be open for pre-orders soon. However, the motherboard is **already offered on Amazon** for $698.00 for the 32GB variant.

The ESWIN EBC7702 is a 203 x 170mm (8" x 6.7") mini-DTX motherboard with support for up to 64GB of LPDDR5-6400 RAM, two PCIe connectors, four Gigabit Ethernet ports, and plenty of I/O features. It's also one of the first devices to feature an ESWIN EIC7702X dual-die chip with an 8-core RISC-V RV64GC processor and an AI processor that delivers up to 40 TOPS of INT8 performance.

Společnosti ESWIN Computing a Canonical oznámily podporu distribuce Ubuntu na základní desce EBC7702 Mini-DTX postavené na architektuře RISC-V. Vývojáři nyní budou moci těžit ze stability a vyspělého ekosystému Ubuntu ihned po vybalení, a to navíc k bohaté sadě funkcí, které nabízí multifunkční systém na čipu (SoC) EIC7702X, píše v oznámení Canonical. Základní deska EBC7702 Mini-DTX má rozměry 203 mm × 107 mm a jejím srdcem je 64bitový 8jádrový procesor RISC-V podporovaný rychlou integrovanou pamětí LPDDR5 s rychlostí 640 Mb/s, dostupnou v konfiguracích 32 GB nebo 64 GB. K dispozici je také procesor pro AI s výkonem až 40 TOPS, 32GB eMMC úložiště přímo na desce, slot M.2 SATA, slot microSD a čtyři porty gigabitového ethernetu. Pro další rozšíření je možné využít dva sloty PCI Express 3.0 ×16 sloty. Deska je určena především pro vývojáře, kteří chtějí mít k dispozici aktuální hardware používající platformu RISC-V. Předinstalováno je Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, takže je možné rovnou nastartovat a začít pracovat. Je ovšem nutné dodat, že použitý procesor není kompatibilní s profilem RVA23 a není na něm možné přímo nastartovat Ubuntu 25.10 a novější. Stejně tak zatím není k dispozici podpora v linuxovém jádře, protože ve verzí 6.18 je teprve počáteční podpora starší desky EIC7700. Uživatelé tedy budou odkázáni na další podporu ze strany Canonicalu. Desku je možné objednat na Amazonu, kde varianta s 32 GB paměti vyjde na 698 dolarů. Doručovat by se mělo během listopadu nebo prosince.

For those looking for a new RISC-V desktop option, ESWIN is launching a EBC7702 mini-DTX board powered by the EIC7702X dual-die SoC

For those looking for a new RISC-V desktop option, ESWIN is launching a EBC7702 mini-DTX board powered by the EIC7702X dual-die SoC. The EBC7702 Mini-DTX is aiming for developers who want RISC-V under their desk for working on AI and other development tasks...

October 23, 2025 – Today, ESWIN Computing and Canonical announced the pre-installation of Ubuntu on EBC7702 Mini-DTX Mainboard – a hardware platform designed to offer developers high computing power in resource-constrained environments. Developers will now be able to benefit from the stability and mature ecosystem of Ubuntu out of the box […]

Upstreamed for the current Linux 6.18 cycle was finally having mainline support for the ESWIN EIC770 SoC with its four SiFive P550 cores plus having the DeviceTree support for the SiFive HiFive Premier P550 RISC-V development board using that SoC. Sadly not making it though for Linux 6.18 was the Ethernet controller support for the EIC7700 SoC but that is now destined to arrive in Linux 6.19...
