** Designing Custom Android/Linux SBCs for Industrial Applications
**
As embedded systems continue to evolve, the demand for customized Single Board Computers (SBCs) that support Android or Linux operating systems is growing rapidly. Whether you’re building an HMI, an IoT edge gateway, or a smart automation controller, a well-designed SBC can save you months of development effort.
At Rocktech Embedded Solutions, we design and manufacture custom Android/Linux SBCs based on Rockchip SoCs such as RK3566, PX30, and RK3288 — tailored specifically for industrial and commercial use.

** Why Go Custom?**
While many off-the-shelf SBCs are powerful, they may lack the specific I/O interfaces, display support, or form factors needed for your application. Custom SBCs allow you to:
• Integrate only the features you need
• Optimize board shape and size for your housing
• Reduce overall BOM cost by eliminating unused components
• Simplify firmware development by pre-integrating drivers
For example, our PX30-based SBC is widely used in wall-mounted control panels and embedded HMI displays. It’s thin, stable, and compatible with 4–7 inch capacitive touch displays.

Key Features You Can Customize
• Android or Linux OS support
• Display interfaces: MIPI, LVDS, RGB, HDMI
• Wireless modules: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4G, ZigBee
• Wired interfaces: Ethernet, RS485, CAN Bus, USB
• Audio: onboard speaker amplifier, microphone array
• Power: 5V, 12V, or 24V input; support for POE
• Boot options: eMMC, TF-Card, SPI-NAND
Need something ultra-thin? We’ve also developed boards with irregular outlines to fit compact mechanical constraints, leaving enough room for speakers, antennas, and other modules.
