TC-RK3568 Stamp Hole System on Module Introduction

1.1 TC-RK3568 Stamp Hole System on Module Brief

TC-RK3568 Stamp Hole system on module is equipped with Rockchip 64-bit processor RK3568 which is configured with dual-core GPU and high-performance NPU, supporting up to 8G RAM. It is suitable for scenarios such as smart NVR, cloud terminal, IoT gateway and industrial control.


RK3568, the quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A55 processor, with 22nm lithography process, has frequency up to 2.0GHz, delivering efficient and stable performance for data processing of back-end equipment. There are a variety of storage options, allowing customers to quickly implement the research and production of products. It supports up to 8GB RAM, with up to 32Bit width and frequency up to 1600MHz. It supports all-data-link ECC, making data safer and more reliable, and meeting the requirements of running large-memory products application. It is integrated with dual-core GPU, high-performance VPU and high-efficiency NPU. The GPU supports OpenGL ES3.2/2.0/1.1, Vulkan1.1. The VPU can achieve 4K 60fps H.265/H.264/VP9 video decoding and 1080P 100fps H.265/ H.264 video encoding. The NPU supports one-click switching of mainstream frameworks like Caffe/TensorFlow.


With MIPI-CSI x2, MIPI-DSI x2, HDMI2.0, EDP video interfaces, it can support up to three screen output with different display. The built-in 8M ISP supports dual cameras and HDR. Video input interface can be connected to an external camera or multiple cameras. The board can be used in NVRs, intelligent terminals, multimedia advertising players and other products. It is equipped with dual adaptive RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, through which internal and external network data can be accessed and transmitted, improving network transmission efficiency, and meeting the needs of products with multiple network ports such as NVR and industrial gateway.


The core board is equipped with 208P interface, which can be combined with a backplane to form a complete high-performance industrial mainboard with more expansion interfaces — the mainboard can be directly used in various intelligent products to facilitate the completion of products.


Android 11.0, Ubuntu 18.04 OS, Debian OS, Linux buildroot are supported. The stable and reliable operation provides a safe and stable system environment for product research and production.


A complete SDK, development documents, examples, technology documents, tutorials and other resources are provided for the users to make a further customization.
