TT06 Development Kit
In this chip we added power gating for all designs and enabled support for mixed-signal. We also moved to OpenFrame, a larger padring that gave us about 30% more space. 238 projects were submitted including 24 analog or mixed-signal. This chip contains a RISC-V SoC that can boot uLinux, a RISC-V microcontroller with micropython support, the 8080 and 4004 CPUs, Pong, a retro gaming console, a ring shaped ring oscillator made of skulls, the 555 timer and an 8 bit SAR ADC.

This chip is compatible with the following Pmods: TinyVGA, QSPI, Audio, Simon.
This kit comes fully assembled - no soldering required!
🚀 TT06 in Space! 🚀
One of the TT06 chips was sent into space in November 2025, catching a ride into low earth orbit aboard a HUNITY PocketQube platform and a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
