List of open-source hardware
Open-source hardware comprises computers and computer components with an open design. They are designed as open-source hardware using open-source principles.
Partially open-source hardware
Hardware that uses closed source components
Single-board computers
- Tinkerforge RED Brick, executes user programs and controls other Bricks/Bricklets standalone
ARM
- Banana Pi, uses low-power processors with an ARM core; runs Linux, Android, and OpenWRT
- BeagleBoard, uses low-power Texas Instruments processors with an ARM Cortex-A8 core; runs Ångström distribution (Linux)
- IGEPv2, an ARM OMAP 3-based board designed and manufactured by ISEE in Spain. Its expansion boards are also open-source.
- OLinuXino, designed with KiCad by OLIMEX Ltd in Bulgaria[1]
- PandaBoard, a variation of the BeagleBoard
- Rascal, an ARM based Linux board that works with Arduino shields, with a web server that includes an editor for users to program it in Python. Hardware design files released under the Creative Commons BY-SA license.
- 96Boards (includes but not limited to, DragonBoard 410c, HiKey, HiKey960, Bubblegum-96 and more...)
- Parallella single-board computer with a manycore coprocessor and field-programmable gate array (FPGA)
ATMega
- Arduino – open-source microcontroller board
Motorola 68000 series
- Minimig – a re-implementation of an Amiga 500 using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA).
National Semiconductor NS320xx series
- PC532, a personal computer design released in 1990, based on the NS32532 microprocessor
RISC-V
- HiFive1 is an Arduino-compatible development kit featuring the Freedom E310, the industry's first commercially available RISC-V SoC[2]
- HiFive Unleashed is a Linux development platform for SiFive’s Freedom U540 SoC, the world’s first 4+1 64-bit multi-core Linux-capable RISC-V SoC."[3]
- HiFive Unmatched is a mini-ITX motherboard that features "a SiFive FU740 processor coupled with 8 GB DDR4 memory and 32 MB SPI Flash. It comes with a 4x USB 3.2 ports and a 16x PCIe expansion slot."[4]
