Product Introduction

The X3128BV3 development board is based on the Rockchip RK3128 platform and consists of a castellated core board, a baseboard, and an LCD board. The core board uses a 6-layer PCB design and is suitable for tablets, vehicle terminals, learning machines, POS devices, game consoles, and industrial monitoring products. The baseboard provides rich peripheral interfaces for validating the main RK3128 hardware features.
