1# RK3568 Development Board 2 3 4## Overview 5 6Bolstered by the Rockchip RK3568 chip, the RK3568 development board integrates a dual-core GPU and high-efficiency NPU. Its quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A55 processor uses the advanced 22 nm manufacturing process and is clocked at up to 2.0 GHz. The development board is packed with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, audio, video, and camera features, with a wide range of expansion ports as well as video input and output ports. It comes with dual GE auto-sensing RJ45 ports, so it can be used in multi-connectivity products, such as NVRs and industrial gateways. 7 8 **Figure 1** RK3568 front view 9 10![rk3568-front](figures/rk3568-front.png) 11 12 **Figure 2** RK3568 rear view 13 14![rk3568-rear](figures/rk3568-rear.png) 15 16 17## Specifications 18 19**Table 1** RK3568 specifications 20 21| Item| Description| 22| -------- | -------- | 23| Display| - 1 x HDMI 2.0 (Type-A) port, supporting 4K/60 fps output<br>- 2 x MIPI, supporting 1920 x 1080\@60 fps output<br>- 1 x eDP, supporting 2K@60 fps output| 24| Audio| - 1 x 8ch I2S/TDM/PDM<br>- 1 x HDMI<br>- 1 x speaker output<br>- 1 x headset output<br>- 1 x microphone for onboard audio input| 25| Ethernet| 2 x GMAC (10/100/1000M)| 26| Wireless connectivity| SDIO port, supporting Wi-Fi 6 5/2.5 GHz and Bluetooth 4.2| 27| Camera| MIPI-CSI2, 1 x 4-lane/2x2-lane\@2.5 Gbps/lane| 28| USB | - 2 x USB 2.0 Host, Type-A<br>- 1 x USB 3.0 Host, Type-A<br>- 1 x USB3.0 OTG | 29| PCIe | 1 x 2-lane PCIe 3.0 Connector (RC mode)| 30| SATA | 1 x SATA 3.0 Connector | 31| SDMMC | 1 x memory card 3.0 | 32| Keys| - 1 x Vol+/Recovery<br>- 1 x Reset<br>- 1 x Power<br>- 1 x Vol-<br>- 1 x Mute | 33| Debugging| 1 x Debugging serial port| 34| RTC | 1 x RTC | 35| IR | 1 x IR | 36| Tri-color indicator| 3 x LED | 37| G-sensor | 1 x G-sensor | 38| Fan| 1 x fan| 39| Expansion| The 20-pin expansion ports include:<br>- 2 x ADC<br>- 2 x I2C<br>- 7 x GPIO (or 3 x GPIO + 4 x UART)<br>- 3 x VCC power (12 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V)| 40| Mother board dimensions| 180 mm x 130 mm| 41| PCB| 4-laminate| 42
