Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi

Overview

The Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi is the most powerful board in the Arduino lineup, built around the STM32H747XI dual-core processor combining a Cortex-M7 at 480MHz and a Cortex-M4 at 240MHz. With 2MB flash and 1MB RAM, it handles demanding applications like real-time audio processing, computer vision, machine learning, and simultaneous wireless communication.

WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity come via the Murata 1DX module, while the board offers an impressive 76 GPIO pins, 4 UARTs, 3 I2C ports, 2 SPI ports, CAN FD, a 3.5mm audio jack with DAC output, and an Arducam camera connector for vision projects. Both USB-A host and USB-C device ports enable connecting peripherals like keyboards, mice, or USB drives.

Maintaining the Mega/Due form factor ensures compatibility with existing large-format shields while delivering processing power that rivals single-board computers. The dual-core architecture allows running time-critical tasks on the M7 while the M4 handles wireless communication or secondary processing independently.
