Geniatech XPI-3288, a $75 Raspberry-Pi style SBC powered by Rockchip RK3200 SoC launched by Geniatech. Its name must sound a little dull in front of Raspberry Pi, but this similar-looking SBC features some specs which make it totally different from other SBC in the market.
Geniatech XPI-3288 Specs
Geniatech XPI-3288 is a 3.3 x 2.2 inches (85 x 56mm) single-board computer (SBC) (very similar to Raspberry Pi 4), is powered by a 7-year-old Rockchip RK3288 quad-core Cortex-A17 processor running at up to 1.6GHz with Arm Mali-T764 GPU coupled with 2GB DRR RAM and has eMMC flash storage onboard available in three options: 8, 16 and 32GB with a MicroSD card slot. It also has four USB 2.0 ports, one Micro USB 2.0 port, and a Gigabit Ethernet port placed very similarly to the Raspberry Pi 3B.
Geniatech XPI-3288 has a single HDMI with 4K video output at 60fps. For connectivity along with a Gigabit Ethernet port, it also has an optional WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.0 module with IPEX antenna connectors. The CSI / DSI connectors (used on the Raspberry Pi for cameras and the official display) are also available.
Additionally, Geniatech XPI-3288 has a 40-pin Raspberry Pi compatible GPIO header with 28 GPIOs, IR Receiver, recovery button and uses a micro USB for power input (5V/3A). Talking of software, the company provides Android 7.1 and optional “Linux” support with XPI-3288. Right now there’s no software download or documentation available, but those would be released soon says the company.
