Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Because of the economical, powerful and compact size, the development board is becoming more and more popular in the industrial field, and it is widely used in automatic control, Internet of things gateway, data tracking and monitoring, security systems and other industrial fields. In order to meet the needs of customers, Orange Group for the first time launched a computing module Orange Pi Compute Module 4 (hereinafter referred to as CM4) for industrial applications and system integration. Compared with the previous development boards, Orange Pi CM4 is smaller, lighter, more customizable and more suitable for industrial applications.

For the orange pie, the advent of Orange Pi CM4 is of great significance. This is the first computing module for industrial applications launched by Orange Group, which means that Orange Group's open source products will take a key step towards industrial grade, providing a more attractive choice for industrial control systems.

Small stature, high speed, low power consumption

Orange Pi CM4 is small in size and strong in performance, so it can be used in deep embedded applications. Specifically, it adopts Ruixin RK3566 quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A55 processor, 22nm advanced technology, with a maximum frequency of 1.8GHz; integrated ARM Mali G522EE GPU, supports OpenGL ES 1.1pm 2.0mVulkan 1.1, embedded high performance 2D acceleration hardware; integrated RKNN NPU AI accelerator, 0.8Tops@INT8 performance, supports one-click conversion of Caffe/TensorFlow/TFLite/ONNX/PyTorch/Keras/Darknet architecture model. Provide rich interfaces, different specifications of eMMC flash memory and wireless modules. At the same time, in addition to the onboard antenna, it can also be equipped with an external antenna, which is more suitable for industrial applications.

Although the board is small, it has all the internal organs.

Also released with Orange Pi CM4 is the Orange Pi CM4 backplane. The backplane can be used with Orange Pi CM4, onboard 40Pin GPIO interface and standard CM4 connector, and integrates all kinds of popular interfaces such as eDP, MIPI DSI, MIPI CSI, USB3.0, USB2.0, HDMI2.0, M.2 M-KEY, Gigabit Ethernet and so on. It can be used for external equipment control and expansion, and is easy to use. The Orange Pi CM4 backplane can be used as a CM4 development system and integrated into the terminal product as an embedded circuit board, supporting access to the Orange Pi CM4 / raspberry pie CM4 core board.

For industrial applications

Orange Pi CM4 features dual-band WiFi (2.4GHz and 5GHz), Bluetooth 5.0, support for BLE, and gateways for crop networking devices that collect data from sensors and send them to the cloud for remote monitoring, remote control and post-analysis. Orange Pi CM4 backplane with 40Pin function expansion interface, support GPIO, UART, I2C, SPI, PWM interface types, can connect to most common industrial I / O. The camera can also be connected through the CSI port for visual inspection.

In the era of Industrial 4. 0, more and more enterprises want to establish intelligent factories and adopt industrial 4. 0 technology. The development board represented by Orange Pi CM4 will provide more abundant and attractive choices for these enterprises. We believe that with the advantage of Orange Group in open source software and an active developer community, Orange Pi CM4 will also play an important role in industrial automation and control in the future.

A variety of models are available

Orange Pi CM4 is available in a variety of models. According to their own needs, users can choose 1GB / 2GB / 4GB / 8GB memory, with or without Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 8GB / 32GB / 64GB / 128GB eMMC or no eMMC.

On the price, the orange pie continues the consistent high performance price, the 1GB memory (no Wi-Fi Bluetooth, no eMMC) version, the individual price starts at 119RMB.

OrangePi CM4 has been launched in various major e-commerce platforms of Xunlong Company, including domestic Tmall store (orange pie computer flagship store), Taobao store (orange pie OrangePi / orange pie small potato digital store), pinduoduo (orange pie digital flagship store), JD.com (orange pie official flagship store), foreign express and Amazon stores.
