Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi. For ambitious makers with bigger ideas.

Overview

The Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi is designed for ambitious makers who want to step up their game. It levels the playing field for gamers, artists, sound designers and anyone coming to the tech world with big ideas on a budget – because it packs advanced features into an accessible component, with the same form factor as our popular Mega and Due.

Let’s break down all the powerful features of this board.

Microcontroller (STM32H747XI): This dual core 32-bits microcontroller allows you have two brain talking to each other (a Cortex®-M7 at 480 MHz and a Cortex®-M4 at 240 MHz) you can even run micropython in one and Arduino in the other.

Wireless communication (Murata 1DX):  Whether you prefer Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth®, the GIGA R1 WiFi got you covered. You can even quickly connect to the Arduino IoT Cloud and keep track of your project remotely. And if you are concerned about the security of the communication, the ATECC608A keeps everything under control.

Hardware ports and communication: Following the legacy of the Arduino Mega and the Arduino Due, the GIGA R1 WiFi has 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), 3 I2C ports (1 more than its predecessors), 2 SPI ports (1 more than its predecessors), 1 FDCAN.

GPIOs and extra pins: We wanted to keep the same form factor of the Mega and the Due, so you can easily adapt your custom made shields to the GIGA R1 WiFi (remember this board works at 3.3V though!) and we added extra headers to access extra pins, leaving the total count to 76 GPIO pins, and the best part, you can access them from underneath, so keep your project as it is and just think on how to expand it. Also, we added two new pins: a VRTC so you can connect a battery to keep the RTC running while the board is off and an OFF pin so you can shut down the board.

Connectors: The GIGA R1 WiFi has extra connectors on board which will facilitate the creation of your project without any extra hardware. This board has:

  • USB-A connector suitable for hosting USB sticks, other mass storage devices and HID devices such as keyboard or mouse.
  • 3.5mm input-output jack connected to DAC0, DAC1 and A7.
  • USB-C® to power and program the board, as well as simulate an HID device such as mouse or keyboard.
  • Jtag connector, 2x5 1.27mm.
  • 20 pin Arducam camera connector.

Higher voltage support: In comparison with its predecessors that support up to 12 volts, the GIGA R1 WiFi can handle a range of 6 to 24 volts.

PROJECT HUB
Arduino Bluetooth Tank
Arduino Bluetooth Tank
Project Tutorial by mastoras_inc

I'm excited to share the details of my BT Arduino Tank project, which incorporates some impressive 3D-printed components. While the main chassis of the tank was not 3D-printed, I utilized this technology to create two crucial parts: the enclosure for the motor driver and the compartment housing the remaining electronics. Additionally, I 3D-printed a cannon for an added touch of customization. The enclosure for the motor driver served as a protective housing, ensuring that the L298N motor driver module was securely mounted and shielded from external elements. By designing and 3D-printing this part, I could precisely fit it to the tank's specifications, providing a neat and organized arrangement of the electronics. In the same vein, the compartment for the remaining electronics, such as the Arduino Nano Every and the HC-05 Bluetooth module, was also 3D-printed. This enclosure offered a clean and organized solution for housing these components, safeguarding them while maintaining easy access for maintenance or modifications. Lastly, to enhance the tank's appearance and add a touch of personalization, I designed and 3D-printed a cannon. This custom-printed cannon perfectly complemented the overall design, making the tank even more visually appealing. By strategically incorporating 3D printing into specific parts of the project, I achieved a balance between functionality and customization. The precision and versatility of 3D printing allowed me to create tailored enclosures and a unique cannon, elevating the overall aesthetic and practicality of my BT Arduino Tank project.

Arduino Nano Every brings Knight Rider sound effects to Knight Rider RC car
Arduino Nano Every brings Knight Rider sound effects to Knight Rider RC car
February 14, 2023

KITT (Knight Industries Two Thousand) was a fictional car based on a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am in the Knight Rider television series. KITT featured an artificial intelligence, voiced by the legendary William Daniels, and some iconic styling. Savall21 built a replica RC KITT and used Arduino boards to add sound and light effects that he can trigger with the RC transmitter. This is a custom RC car created by Savall21 using a Tamiya TT-02 kit and a resin 3D-printed body shell. The controller/transmitter is a Jumper T18, which has a customizable touchscreen interface. Savall21 programmed his own widget for that touchscreen. It mimics the fictional KITT control panel and lets the user select different sound effects and activate the iconic headlights. The T18 sends commands to an FrSky XR8 radio receiver located in the car. The FrSky receiver communicates with two Arduino Nano Every boards via the S.Port. The first Arduino controls the sound effects, which play through a DFPlayer Mini MP3 player module. The FrSky receiver simply sends a numerical code to the Arduino, which then activates the corresponding audio clip. The second Arduino drives a strip of WS2812B individually addressable RGB LEDs for the headlights and taillights. The user can control the headlights directly, while the taillights automatically come on any time the throttle is below 50%. For fans of Knight Rider and RC vehicles, this is the ultimate project. The car looks fantastic and the Arduino effects add polish to the build.

FAQs

Do I need an external antenna? Is it included with the product?

Yes and yes, this board has no on board antenna however a u.FL antenna is provided in the box.

Which Arducam models are compatible with the on board camera connector?

The camera adapter (J6 header) is a 20 pin adapter for Arducam cameras such as OV7675 and OV7670. For more information on how to use the camera visit the GIGA R1 WiFi Camera guide.


What is the difference between the Portenta H7 and the GIGA R1 WiFi?

The difference between these two products are:

  • The GIGA R1 WiFi uses the USB-C® to power and program the board, as well as simulate an HID device such as mouse or keyboard. In the case of the Portenta H7, the USB-C® can also be used as DisplayPort out, USB Hub or to deliver power to OTG connected devices.
  • The GIGA R1 WiFi exposes all the possibilities of the STM32H7 in a more accessible way using 2.54 mm pin headers making it a more suitable option for prototyping whereas the Portenta H7 is suitable for mass production since it uses high-density connectors to save space.
  • Given its form factor the GIGA R1 WiFi has the space to provide additional services such as a USB-A connector, 3.5mm input-output jack and JTAG connector on board.

What shields are compatible with GIGA R1 WiFi?

Any shield with the UNO, Mega or Due form factor that supports 3.3V is supposed to work with GIGA R1 WiFi but we recommend checking with the manufacturer.
The following shields (and their libraries) are officially compatible with GIGA R1 WiFi:

What is the difference between the two USB connectors?

The GIGA R1 WiFi has two USB connectors. The USB-C® connector (USB0), next to the reset button and the u.FL antenna connector, is used for programming, serial communication and 5V power. The USB-A connector (USB1), next to the 3.5mm jack connector, is used as a USB host (not a programming port).
