Lctech Pi F1C200s

A comparably small development board (though larger than most other F1Cx00s boards), with two USB Type-C ports.

= Identification = The PCB has the following silkscreened on it: Lctech Pi F1c200s v1.1 (303F1C200S1) www.lctech-inc.com

Older versions are marketed as CherryPi, with a cherry logo silkscreened on the top. Newer revisions (v1.1) have no logo, just the "Lctech Pi F1C200s" name. All share the (now defunct) "www.lctech-inc.com" URL. Nothing is printed naming-wise on the back.

= Sunxi support =

Current status
Mostly covered by the generic F1C100s support in both Linux and U-Boot, DTs under review.

Manual build
You can build things for yourself by following our Manual build howto and by choosing from the configurations available below.

Mainline U-Boot
Not yet merged, but initial patches posted.

Mainline Linux Kernel
Not yet merged, but initial patches posted. Use the suniv-f1c200s-lctech-pi.dtb device-tree binary.

= Expansion ports = The board features two single-line rows of header pins, which are not populated. The shorter header on the right hand side has the first 12 pins from PortE, but no Vcc or GND pin:

The longer header on the other side provides both 5V and 3.3V (plus the only GND pin), a few digital signals, but also many analogue ones:

= Tips, Tricks, Caveats =

FEL mode
The BOOT button connects the SPI0_MISO pin to GND, thus preventing SPI-NAND boot. If no SD card is inserted, this triggers FEL mode.

= Serial port =

The device features a CH340 compatible USB to serial adapter chip, which connects the SoC's PortA UART1 pins (PA2, PA3) to an USB Type-C connector. So serial console just requires a USB cable.

= Also known as =

Initially this device seemed to have been sold under the Cherry Pi brand name, from the same manufacturer. Newer versions and the current website just use the "Lctech Pi" name now.
