Other Content
Easier to develop is one of the main strengths of this board. It integrates a TF card slot, DSI interface, USB-C HOST port, and MX1.25 USB HOST header in a compact layout.

Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 give the board strong wireless connectivity, while antenna switching supports different deployment needs.


MIPI DSI 2-lane helps the board drive large screens in compact display projects, and Rockchip Matrix IO allows highly flexible pin multiplexing.


Pin definition and what's on board are also important for hardware integration and peripheral expansion.
