64-bit single-board computer

19 July 2017 Computer/Embedded Technology

The Pine A64 single-board computer is based on a 1,2 GHz quad-core ARM Cortex A53 64-bit processor that executes both 64- and 32-bit code for scalable performance.

Two models are available. The ‘Basic’ model is the low-cost variant of the Pine A64 board. It has 512 MB system RAM and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. The ‘Plus’ model has 1 GB system RAM, Gigabit Ethernet port, camera port, LCD panel display port, and touch control port. Android users prefer the Plus model due to the larger system memory size and a better user experience.

For the operating system, Android Lollipop 5.1 or Ubuntu with Kernel 3.10 are available, both of which come in a 64-bit version. The board also works with openHAB (www.openhab.org) for IoT (Internet of Things) applications. The OS is stored on microSD card, and the root partition can be simply replaced with another ARM Linux. Also in development is the capability to run Microsoft Windows / Windows RT OS.
