The NanoPi NEO(abbreviated as NEO) is another fun board developed by FriendlyARM for makers, hobbyists and fans.
Raspberry Pi Zero has two noticeable attributes compared to other Raspberry Pi boards: it’s smaller and it’s cheaper. FriendlyARM has now designed another model for their NanoPi family, that about 12% smaller, although not quite as thin at all due to its Ethernet jack and USB connector, and much faster than Raspberry Pi Zero, with NanoPi NEO board powered by Allwinner H3 quad core processor.
NanoPi NEO specifications:
SoC – Allwinner H3 quad core Cortex A7 @ 1.2 GHz with an ARM Mali-400MP2 GPU up to 600 MHz
System Memory – 256 or 512 MB DDR3
Storage – micro SD card slot
Connectivity – 10/100M Ethernet
USB – 1x USB 2.0 host ports, 1x micro USB OTG port, 2x USB via headers
Expansion headers
24-pin header with I2C, 2x UART, SPI, PWM, and power signals
12-pin header with 2x USB, IR pin, microphone and Line OUT signals
Debugging – 4-pin header for serial console
Misc – Power and status LEDs
Power Supply – 5V/2A via micro USB port or VDD pin on headers.
Dimensions – 40 x 40 mm (Raspberry Pi Zero: 65mm × 30mm)
There aren’t any interfaces to connect an external display, so the board can only be used for headless applications. In case you need that board with low profile, you could probably unsolder the Ethernet jack and USB port, or if you buy in quantities, maybe the company could remove those for you.
Can anyone know that if it supported armbian system？
