Geniatech XPI-3566 single-board computer follows the Raspberry Pi form factor
Geniatech, one of the leading OEM/ODM service providers, has announced the release of the XPI-3566 single-board computer that comes in Raspberry Pi form factor to target retail and interactive applications. This XPI-3566 single-board computer is designed to boost its performance through the powerful Rockchip RK3566 with a Quad-core Cortex-A55 processor clocked up to 1.8 GHz.
The manufacturer offers 2GB of RAM by default, while the eMMC storage capacity is 16GB. On the other side of the board, there is a 64GB SD card slot for additional storage. The XPI-3566 has the same number of USB ports as other SBCs with comparable form factors, including two USB 2.0 ports, one USB 3.0 port, and one USB 2.0 port that solely supports On The Go (OTG) mode. The Geniatech XPI-3566 single-board computer is equipped with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity in addition to a single HDMI port that can output video and digital audio.
