Overview

The Rockchip RK3576 is a processor designed for high-end edge computing and industrial AI applications. It adopts an innovative heterogeneous architecture of 4×Cortex-A72 + 4×Cortex-A53 cores, paired with a 6TOPS NPU accelerator. Striking an excellent balance between performance and power efficiency, the chip supports industrial-grade operating temperatures from -40℃ to 105℃, while offering 8K video codec capability. It is an ideal choice for scenarios such as smart manufacturing and smart cities.

Based on this processor, BLIIoT has launched the BL440 Edge Computing Gateway, which features flexible ROM/RAM configurations (up to 16GB + 128GB) and modular I/O design, enabling reliable deployment in harsh industrial environments.
