Description
Minicomputer Asus Tinker Board with a powerful processorARM Cortex A17 quad-core 32-bit processor with a clock frequency of 1.8 GHz. Board has2 GB of RAM LPDDR3, port Ethernet Gigabit,Bluetooth, moduleWi-Fi, portHDMI 2.0 (supporting 4K resolution), 4 x USB 2.0 ports, 40 GPIO, connectors for card microSD,mini-Jack 3.5 mm,S/PDIFand connectors for CSI and DSI. Works with theDebian and Cody. The device is compatible with overlays for the Raspberry Pi.
The device has 4 USB 2.0 slots, HDMI 2.0 connector, Ethernet port and many others.
What it takes to run minicomputer Tinker Asus Board?
- The microSD card - carrier on which will be installed an operating system
- AC adapter:
- 5 V / 2 A only for the minicomputer
- HDMI cable- for connecting the device to the monitor
- Mouse and keyboard - for control and input data into the device
- Connected Internet - to download the software
AsusTinker Board works with systems Debianand Cody. The disk of the device is the microSD card.
The manufacturer adds to the device a compatible radiator.
Communication
Asus TinkerBoard has the main communication interfaces, which can be found in office computers of PC class. The user has at his or her disposal:
- four USB 2.0 connectors, to which can be connected, for example, a mouse, a keyboard, a wi-fi card or USB flash drive. If you find that the slots are too short, you can increase their number usingan external USB HUB.
- Ethernet slot, that is the ability to directly connect to the network.
- the wi-fi module - allows for communication with wireless network 802.11 b/g/n.
- Bluetooth 4.0- enables data transmission through the interface.
- GPIO x 40 pin - outputs/inputs with general purpose that can be used to control the LEDs, buttons, drivers, engines. Among them are the pins supporting interfaces: I2C, SPI and UART. Compatible with caps for Raspberry
- a slot for microSD -slot for memory cards microSD, on which can be installed the operating system.
Power
As a power source, the system uses the microUSB connector. The manufacturer recommends that the voltage indicated on the plug had a value of 5.0 V and an output current of the used adapter shall not be less than 2.0 A. In our assortment, you will finda special power supply.
Cases
Leads of AsusTinker Board are compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, therefore, the majority of cases for the popular Raspberry is also compatible with Asus. In our service, we have checked the following cases:
- The graphite case
- Red-white case
- RS Pro black case - no possibility of mounting the radiator
- RS Pro white case - no possibility of mounting the radiator
- The RS Pro transparent case - no possibility of mounting the radiator
