Introduction

The 96Boards initiative is designed to offer a single software and hardware community across multiple vendor boards supporting a range of different features. A fixed set of minimum functions including USB, SD, HDMI and standardized low speed and high speed peripheral connectors are provided. Vendors may add customized hardware and feature sets provided the minimum functions are available.

Features

There are currently two 96Boards specifications for low-cost ARMv7-A and ARMv8-A development boards:

The Consumer Edition (CE) targets the mobile, embedded and digital home segments. The Enterprise Edition (EE) targets the networking and server segments.


96Boards CE Minimum Hardware Features

Ultra-small low-profile “card” form factor - 85 x 54 x 12mm Design is SoC independent (targets 32 or 64 bit SoCs) 0.5GB RAM (Minimum 1GB recommended for Android) 3. MicroSDHC Socket for up to 64GB on-board or expansion flash storage 4. Wifi 802.11g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 LE 5. On Board Connectors and expansion I/O 2x USB Type A or Type C host ports (USB2.x or 3.x) USB Micro-B USB or Type C slave or OTG port (USB2.x or 3.x) For PC connection Display output must be available on one of the following: HDMI/audio on HDMI full size or micro connector MHL display/audio on display microUSB DisplayPort/audio on USB Type C Low profile 40 way female header for maker/community use Low profile 60 way high speed female module header for advanced maker/OEM use with high speed interfaces including MIPI-DSI, USB and optional MIPI CSI-2 Board power from low profile DC Jack connector

HiKey LeMaker

The HiKey board was the first board to be certified 96Boards Consumer Edition compatible. Two versions of this board are available: the original from CircuitCo and a new version in 1GB and 2GB variants from LeMaker. The board is based around the HiSilicon Kirin 6220 eight-core ARM Cortex-A53 64-bit SoC running at 1.2GHz and delivering over 10,000 Dhrystone VAX MIPS total performance. The SoC also delivers high performance 3D graphics support with its ARM Mali 450-MP4 GPU.

800MHz LPDDR3 DRAM (1GB in the CircuitCo version and a choice of 1GB or 2GB from leMaker), 4GB eMMC Flash Storage and the standard 96Boards microSD v3.0 socket provide high performance. Flexible storage options and connectivity are available through 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, three high speed USB 2.0 ports (1 OTG), an HDMI 1.3 1080p video output with audio, and Maker, DSI display and CSI camera interfaces. The board is the standard 96Boards credit-card form factor powered by an 8-18V DC 2A power supply.

The DragonBoard™ 410c by Arrow Electronics is the first development board based on a mid-tier Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 400 series processor. The board is designed to build a software ecosystem around the Snapdragon 410 processor, as well as offering uses in education, prototyping, and commercial embedded computing products. Featuring the 64-bit capable Snapdragon 410 quad-core ARM® Cortex® A53 processor, the DragonBoard 410c supports Android 5.1, Linux based on Debian and Windows 10. It offers advanced processing power, integrated WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS, all packed into a board the size of a credit card. The board supports feature-rich functionality, including multimedia, with the Adreno™ 306 GPU for PC-class graphics, integrated ISP with up to 13 MP camera support, and 1080p HD video playback and capture with H.264 (AVC).
