Orange Pi 3 B
A High-Performance Single Board Computer
The Orange Pi 3B is driven by the Rockchip RK3566 quad-core 49g64-bit processor, featuring a 22nm advanced process and a maximum frequency of up to 1.8GHz. It incorporates an ARM Mali G52 2EE graphics processor, supporting OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0/3.2, OpenCL 2.0, and Vulkan 1.1, alongside a high-performance 2D acceleration module. Additionally, it houses a built-in AI accelerator NPU boasting 0.8Tops computing power.
In terms of video processing, the VPU can achieve 4K@60fps H.265/H.264/VP9 video decoding, 1080P@100fps H.265 video encoding, and 1080P@60fps H.264 video encoding, with support for 8M ISP and HDR. Memory options include 2GB/4GB/8GB LPDDR4/4X, with support for 16GB/32GB/64GB/128GB/256GB eMMC modules, as well as 16MB/32MB SPI Flash. Connectivity features Wi-Fi 5, BT5.0, and BLE support.
The Orange Pi 3B boasts a comprehensive array of interfaces, including HDMI output, optional M.2 M-KEY, Micro SD slot, Gigabit LAN port, USB2.0, USB3.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, MIPI DSI port, eDP port, MIPI CSI camera port, and a multifunctional 40 Pin expansion port. These interfaces make it suitable for various applications such as TV boxes, high-end tablets, edge computing, face recognition, smart security, smart home, and more, enabling rich AI applications and IoT scenarios.
Operating system support encompasses Android 11, Ubuntu 22.04, Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 11, Debian 12, OpenHarmony 4.0 Beta1, Orange Pi OS (Arch), Orange Pi OS (OH) based on OpenHarmony, and other compatible operating systems.
