- NPU: 6TOPS computing power Supports INT8/INT16 mixed quantization→ Typical scenario: Run YOLOv5s (30fps) + DeepSort algorithm (60fps) simultaneously
Dual – channel LPDDR4X – 4266 Memory
- Peak bandwidth of 68.3GB/s → Meet the requirements of real – time analysis of 4 channels of 4K video streams
- Optional 8GB/16GB/32GB configurations → Avoid cost waste caused by over – configuration
2. Industrial – Grade Reliability: Full – Range Protection from the Laboratory to Extreme Fields
Cold start at – 40°C and full – load operation at 85°C
- Measured data: Startup time at – 40°C ≤ 8 seconds (competitors generally > 15 seconds)
8 – layer PCB + Complete ground plane
- EMC optimization: Radiated noise reduced by 20dBμV/m compared with conventional 4 – layer boards (in the EN 55032 standard frequency band)
- Power integrity: IR Drop < 50mV (@12V input at full load)
3. High – Speed Interconnection: Zero Bottlenecks for Data Flow
Dual 15Gbps board – to – board connectors
- Single connector Supports PCIe 3.0×4 + USB3.1 Gen2×2 + Multiple LVDS
- Typical application: Cascade 3 core boards → Build a computing power cluster with 24 – core CPU + 18TOPS NPU
Full – link 8K video pipeline
- Decoding: 8K@60fps H.265/H.264
- Encoding: 8K@30fps → Meet the requirements of real – time recording of surgical images
4. Lifecycle and Customization: The Invisible Competitiveness of Medium – Sized Enterprises
10 – year long – term supply commitment
- Key components (RK3588/LPDDR4/PMIC) are stocked until 2033
- Comparative solution: Renesas RZ/G2L only promises a 5 – year supply
In – depth hardware customization
- Baseboard interfaces: Support the on – demand combination of PCIe3.0/PCIe2.0/CAN/RS485/PoE+
- Software adaptation: Provide standard BSPs for Yocto/OpenWRT/ROS 2
