Radxa Rock 4 Series

ROCK 4 is a Single Board Computer (SBC) in an ultra-small form factor that offers class-leading performance while leveraging outstanding mechanical compatibility. The ROCK 4 offers makers, IoT enthusiasts, hobbyists, PC DIY enthusiasts and others a reliable and extremely capable platform for building and tinkering their ideas into reality.

ROCK 4 has a modern and powerful hexa-core ARM based processor, RK3399 inside, it offers significantly improved performance versus other popular SBC boards. All models are equipped with LPDDR4 3200Mb/s RAM and optional high performance eMMC modules, boost all applications.

ROCK 4 features maker friendly expansion options, including a 40-pin GPIO interface that allow for interfacing with a range inputs from buttons, switches, sensors, LEDs, and much more.

ROCK 4 also features a Gbit LAN for network, with dedicated bus and controller, it works without latency under heavy load network applications. On board 802.11 ac wifi offers 2.4G & 5G WLAN connectivity. With Bluetooh 5.0, ROCK 4 benefits improved Bluetooth speed and greater range.

ROCK 4 also features one USB 3.0 host and one USB 3.0 OTG ports, each 5Gbps/s, working independently. The USB 3.0 OTG can work as USB device such as Android ADB or USB gadgets. A hardware switch is provided for OTG mode switch.

ROCK 4 supports mainstream AI stack with GPU acceleration. Further more, a dedicated hardware NPU accelerator coming up next for ROCK 4 will boosts complex Machine Learning algorithm and reduce the power.

Industrial standard MIPI CSI connector makes it easy to connect exsit cameras to ROCK 4 and ROCK 4 also supports industrial standard MIPI DSI for LCD and touch screen. With hardware accelerated algorithm, it's great for Computer Vision application, Robotics and much more.

ROCK 4 features an ARM-based RK3399 SoC and is equipped with six cores to enhance multithread application performance.

ROCK 4's GPU is based on the Mali™-T860MP4 GPU. It offers up 4 cores and a 600MHz clock speed. When compared to competitor SBC GPUs, ROCK 4 offers better GPU computing and GPU acceleration performance.

ROCK 4 comes with multiple storage options and providing superior read and write performance on external storage drives, allowing quicker read and write speeds. This improves workflow, copying, backups and overall file usage.
