The Pine H64 is based on the Allwinner H6 Quad-Core ARM Cortex A53 64-Bit Processor. In 2019 a new Allwinner-based board was added as a direct competitor to the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. An optional PCI Express to Dual SATA-II adapter and an optional Wi-Fi module are offered by Pine64 It features a Mali T-860 Quad-Core GPU and, in addition to the standard USB/Ethernet/HDMI/MicroSD ports, also has an eDP interface and an open-ended PCI Express x4 slot. Its larger brother, the ROCKPro64, is based on a Rockchip RK3399 Hexa-Core (dual ARM Cortex-A72 and quad ARM Cortex A53) 64-Bit Processor instead. The ROCK64 features a Rockchip RK3328 Quad-Core ARM Cortex A53 64-Bit Processor, a Mali-450MP2 GPU capable of playing 4K HDR videos, 1/2/4 Gigabytes of RAM, two USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 ports, one HDMI 2.0 port, a Gigabit Ethernet port, a MicroSD slot and several other peripheral ports.
In July 2017, the company added a new line of single board computers based on Rockchip SoCs. The LTS versions are identical to the A64/A64+, but are guaranteed to be available until the year 2022 at a slightly higher cost. Ģ017 also saw the addition of a "Long Term Supply" (LTS) version of the Pine A64/A64+ boards called "Pine A64/A64(+)- LTS". A review by Hackaday noted problems with production quality, software, and user support. Pine64 sells a "Clusterboard" with an inbuilt eight-port Gigabit Ethernet switch which can be used to build a cluster system out of up to seven SOPINE modules. It competes with the Raspberry Pi Compute Modules. It features the same system-on-chip as the Pine A64, but mounted on a DDR3 SODIMM form factor board without the USB/HDMI/Ethernet connectors. Optional eMMC storage modules can be plugged into special headers on the board.Ī compute module called SOPINE A64 was introduced in January 2017.

While the 512 MB model only works with Arch Linux and Debian GNU/Linux distributions such as Armbian or DietPi, the A64+ with more memory can also run other operating systems including Android, Remix OS, Windows 10, FreeBSD, and Ubuntu. The A64 board has only 512 megabytes of RAM, the 1 GB and 2 GB versions are labeled "Pine A64+". It features a 1.2 GHz Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A53 64-Bit Processor, an ARM Mali 400 MP2 graphics processor unit, one HDMI 1.4a port, one MicroSD slot, two USB 2.0 ports and a 100 Megabit Ethernet port. The original Pine A64 boards released in 2016 are powered by the Allwinner A64 system-on-chip. DevicesĪfter the initial Kickstarter orders for the Pine A64 single board computers had been satisfied, the company went on to create several successors, and later also added notebooks and a smartphone to the "Pine" family. As of late 2020, the standard form contract of binds all orders to the laws of Malaysia, while the products are shipped from warehouses in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China. was dissolved while Pine Store Limited was incorporated on Decemin Hong Kong. based in Delaware, but all devices for the Kickstarter campaign were manufactured and sold by Pine Microsystems Inc.
The original Kickstarter page referred to the Pine64 Inc. The Kickstarter project was overshadowed by delays and shipping problems. The A64 was first funded through a Kickstarter crowdfunding drive in December 2015 which raised over $1.7 million. In 2015, Pine Microsystems offered its first product, the Pine A64, a single-board computer designed to compete with the popular Raspberry Pi in both power and price.

( Fremont, California), founded by TL Lim, the inventor of the PopBox and Popcorn Hour series of media players sold under the Syabas and Cloud Media brands. Pine64 initially operated as Pine Microsystems Inc. Its name was inspired from the mathematical constants pi and e with a reference to 64-bit computing power. is a legal for-profit entity, it operates much like a non-profit organization in the sense that it does not draw profits from most device sales, operates with volunteers, and reinvests income from sales back into the company. Pine Store Limited, known by its trade name Pine64 (styled as PINE64), is a Hong Kong-based organization which designs, manufactures and sells single-board computers, notebook computers and smartphones.
