Linksprite pcDuino4 Nano

[tkaiser]

According to FriendlyARM the soon available pcDuino4 Nano is a 100 percent compatible variant of NanoPi M1: http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/09/13/20-pcduino4-nano-is-yet-another-allwinner-h3-development-board-sort-of/#comment-531770

 

In case you want to run Armbian on your pcDuino4 Nano please choose the OS images for M1: http://www.armbian.com/nanopi-m1/

 

(the sole purpose of this thread is to feed our forum search and external search engines. No need to really discuss this hardware  @Igor: As soon as the first user confirms Armbian works you could add IMO a download page similar to the one for Orange Pi+ 2 )

Edit (by Armbian team): Below how LinkSprite marketing staff would describe it (account flagged as spammer and further postings disabled). Dimensions are wrong (64x56mm), powering through the 4-pin header is recommended. Real information can be found in linux-sunxi wiki: pcDuino4 Nano is listed on the main page as OEM variant.

 

 

The pcDuino4 Nano is an Allwinner H3 based ARM board. It is only two thirds the size of the Raspberry Pi. It is open source. It works with Ubuntu MATE, Debian and etc. The pcDuino4 Nano uses the Allwinner H3 Soc. It integrates Ethernet, IR receiver, video/audio output and supports HDMI and AVOUT. It can be powered via the MicroUSB port In such a small board it still integrates rich interfaces and ports. Besides the popular HDMI, Ethernet, USB-Host, USB-OTG, DVP camera interface and AVOUT (audio and video) it has an onboard Microphone, IR receiver, a serial debug port and a Raspberry Pi compatible 40 pin GPIO pin header.

Specification[edit]

• SoC – Allwinner H3 quad core Cortex A7 @ 1.2 GHz with an ARM Mali-400MP2 GPU up to 600 MHz
• System Memory – 1GB DDR3 SDRAM
• Storage – micro SD card slot
• Video & Audio Output – HDMI and 3.5mm jack for CVBS (composite + stereo audio)
• Connectivity -10/100M Ethernet
• USB – 3x USB 2.0 host ports, 1x micro USB OTG port
• Camera – DVP Interface
• Expansions – 40-pin Raspberry Pi compatible header with UART, SPI, I2C, PWM, GPIOs, etc…
• Debugging – 4-pin header for serial console
• Misc – Power and reset buttons; 2x LEDs; IR receiver; on-board microphone.
• Power Supply – 5V/2A via micro USB port; 4.7V ~ 5.6V via VDD pin on “Raspberry Pi†header.
• Dimensions – 64 x 50mm (Orange Pi One dimensions: 69mm × 48mm)

Funny, it looks exactly like the FriendlyArm NanoPi M1. Down to the silkscreen, even! The only change seems to be the removal of the FA label, and placing the pcDuino label there instead on the silkscreen.

It is a NanoPi M1 just with different PCB colour and a different boot logo if you use 'LinkSprite's' OS images (very good news for clueless LinkSprite customers that FriendlyARM also provides the OS images since this is something where FA shines and LS usually sucks): http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/09/13/20-pcduino4-nano-is-yet-another-allwinner-h3-development-board-sort-of/#comment-531770

Merged topics because why not

Dear @wenhui or whatever spambot you are. This is the 2nd dumb LinkSprite marketing spam attempt in our forum within just 2 days. We already informed our users a week ago that you let FriendlyARM do the OEM work so you can sell a NanoPi M1 for $20 as pcDuino4 Nano instead of $16 as usual.

 

http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/2037-linksprite-pcduino4-nano/

 

It makes me wonder how you manage to sell a product using wrong specifications (dimensions are wrong, powering is wrong). At least it gives a good idea how careless your employer is.

 

In case you try a 3rd time to spam our forum the next account you'll use will be disabled as yours now and the other yesterday and we will remove every reference to pcDuino4 Nano forever instead of providing an Armbian image for it (in form of a separate download page).

 

@wenhui: If you don't understand what that means ask your boss first. And please correct the specs in your Wiki immediately, it's unbelievable how careless some vendors are!
