Pine64 has launched a smaller and cheaper “HardRock64” variant of its RK3399-based RockPro64 SBC that removes the PCIe and USB Type-C.
The board features:
- The RK3399 hexa-core SOC found in the Pinebook Pro and on the ROCKPro64
- 2xUSB 3.0
- 2xUSB 2.0
- WiFi AC and BT 5.0
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Full GPIO pins
- SPI flash
- eMMC socket
- mSD card slot
- Fan & RTC headers
- Heatsink mount
- CSI connector
- DSI connector
- IR receiver
- 5V barrel jack for power
- Digital video out
The board will run all ROCKPro64 OS images with little or no tweaks (we checked) and probably most Pinebook Pro OS with a ‘simple’ device tree tweak. In other words, if you don’t need all of the ROCKPro64’s functionality – e.g. PCIe or USB-C – then this may just be the board for you.
The board does run hot so a heatsink is pretty much mandatory. A couple of different options will be sold by us to match your needs and expected the SOC load.
The board will ship in 3 LPDDR4 RAM configurations (tentative $ pricing):
- 1GB ~ $35
- 2GB ~ $45
- 4GB ~ $55
Tentative release date: April 2020
