Radxa CM3 Model A Rock3 RK3566 Compute module 1GB RAM /8GB EMMC, Wifi+BT, RM116-D1E8W2

The ROCK3 Compute Module from Radxa (Radxa CM3) is a SoM (System on Module), based
on the Rockchip RK3566 SoC in a small form factor of 55mm x 40mm. It integrates CPU/PMU/DRAM/STORAGE and wireless

.

The CM3 from Radxa offers a ready-to-use, cost-effective solution for countless applications. It also simplifies and accelerates new product developments.

The module is compatible with the Raspberry CM4 baseboards from Raspberry, Seed etc.

Overview of the functions:

Quad-core 64-bit high-performance solution

Radxa CM3 is powered by the Rockchip RK3566 SoC, a 64-bit Quad Cortex A55 low-power core with up to 2.0Ghz. It is equipped with a maximum of 8 GB RAM and up to 128 GB eMMC memory

.

With a simple carrier board (a 2-layer base board is sufficient to gain access to all functions of the SoM), engineers can quickly develop solutions and prepare the boards for production.

Rich interfaces

I2C, SPI, UART, ADC, PWM, GPIO, Ethernet, CAN, PDM, USB2, USB3, I2S, MIPI,
SATA, eDP interfaces are available as well as PCIe 2.0 buses with high bandwidth.

Display capability

The dual video out processor supports the output of two displays via HDMI, eDP, MIPI, DP, with a resolution of up to 4K x 2K and a 2.5k

Powerful multimedia support

4K VP9 and 4K 10bits H264/H265 video decoding, up to 60FPS

Decoding of multiple 1080P video formats, including VC-1, MPEG-1/2/4, VP8

1080P encoding to H.264 and VP8 formats

 Small size and low power consumption

The 55mm x 40mm form factor and industry-compatible 3 x 100PIN board-to-board connectors save board space and provide standardised interfaces that save board space.

Support for multiple operating systems

Ubuntu 20.04 / Debian 10 / Buildroot / Android

Open documents and source code

Source code, documents, tools and utilities are freely available, community and commercial support is available to assist you in putting your prototype into production

Widely used in various applications

Perfect SoM for robotics, HMI, vending machines, smart home, IOT gateway, industrial control, medical devices, etc.
