New Chip Available for Budget Development Boards — RK3528
Recently, I received something quite interesting, a set-top box. There’s not much to say about the set-top box itself, but the chip it features is something I’m very curious about. It uses the RK3528A SoC, equipped with four Cortex-A53 cores, with a frequency of up to 2.0GHz, and a Mali 450 MP2 GPU.After testing, it outperforms the Allwinner H618 in various aspects.Many people know about the Allwinner H618, which is used in the OrangePi Zero3 that costs just 99 yuan. Both are quad-core Cortex-A53, so what advantages does the RK3528A have? The first advantage is that it has a higher frequency, 0.5GHz more, which makes a significant difference for a chip that originally has low performance. The Mali 450 MP2
