Detailed Introduction to Rockchip Microchips

Rockchip has been deeply involved in the industrial control sector, and its numerous flagship chips have occupied a dominant position in the market.

Over the years, Rockchip has adhered to the dual-track product strategy of "SoC + AI coprocessor", covering all industrial requirements from lightweight control to high-end edge-side large models. Many of its chips have become best-selling products in various niche markets.

1、RK3506J Entry-level industrial-grade main controller

Highly integrated and lightweight industrial chips, with simplified peripheral circuit design, specifically tailored for small controllers, small display panels, serial port IoT terminals, and small acquisition modules.

2、RK3568J Industrial standard main model

Taking into account computing power, power consumption and cost, with rich interfaces, widely used in industrial gateways, energy storage control cabinets, small PLCs, NAS storage, 3C inspection equipment, with large-scale production, it is a benchmark solution in the mid-range industrial control industry.

3、RK3576J Mid-range industrial standard platform

With high processing capabilities and basic AI computing power, it integrates multi-channel high-definition display output, is compatible with industrial human-machine interfaces (HMI), small visual inspection terminals, energy storage interactive screens, and medical industrial control equipment. It also features abundant peripheral interfaces and excellent heat dissipation performance, making it a popular choice for mid-range industrial interaction devices.

4、RK3588J High-end industrial flagship

6TOPS native NPU, multi-channel 8K video processing, suitable for large-scale commercial deployment of high-end edge industrial control, machine vision inspection, humanoid robot main control, and head automation equipment manufacturers. It is a typical solution for high-end intelligent controllers.

5、RK1828 AI Co-processor-end large model must-have hit product

High computing power and high bandwidth architecture, with the ability to independently expand up to 7B for large models. Without the need to replace the main control unit, traditional industrial control equipment and industrial vision products can acquire offline multi-modal AI capabilities, significantly reducing the cost of equipment intelligent transformation. The market growth rate has been rapid this year.

6、RV1126B Visual processing chip

Industrial vision, defect detection on production lines, dedicated for intelligent monitoring, low-power multi-channel image acquisition, widely used in production line AOI and logistics identification equipment.

From discrete manufacturing, new energy energy storage, to smart water management, intelligent warehousing, and industrial robots, hundreds of leading equipment enterprises have adopted the industrial chip solutions from Rockchip. The customer retention rate and the scale of product mass production have consistently ranked among the top in domestic industrial control chips.

Based on the mature and mass-produced products, Rockchip continues to iterate on the advanced process industrial computing platform, and has fully laid out short-term and long-term product planning:

1. Existing production line series: RK3568 lightweight industrial control, RK3588 high-end main control, RK182X large model coprocessor, RV series vision chips, covering the vast majority of current industrial control and edge AI requirements;

2. Long-term advanced process flagship: Plans to launch RK3668 and RK3688 new-generation high-end SoCs, and simultaneously launch RK1860 and RK1899 etc. high-level AI coprocessors, providing a stronger computing platform for the next generation of edge-side intelligent devices.

A full range of chip matrix + continuous iterative software ecosystem, enables customers to find an adapted, cost-effective, and stable supply domestic computing power solution from low-end control equipment to high-end AI industrial equipment.
