Ultimate performance for edge device

AI accelerator (NPU)

ASUS Tinker Edge R is an Single Board Computer (SBC) specially designed for AI applications. It uses Rockchip NPU, a Machine Learning (ML) accelerator that speeds up processing efficiency, lowers power demands and makes it easier to build connected devices and intelligent applications. With this integrated Machine Learning (ML) accelerator, the Tinker Edge R is capable of performing 3 tera-operations per second (TOPS), using low power consumption. And it's optimized for Neural Network (NN) architecture, which means Tinker Edge R can support multiple Machine Learning (ML) frameworks and let lots common Machine Learning (ML) models can be easily compiled and run on the Tinker Edge R

 

Advanced Power Design

Most SBC motherboards only offer a 15 watt (5V 3A) power design, which can cause device and system instability when there are multiple connected devices. Other SBCs have power designs that lower the performance of their I/O ports. Tinker Edge R has a special power design that, together with DC and pin header dual power supply, delivers up to 65 watts of power, enabling stable system operation and full I/O performance, even with multiple connected devices. Additionally, an exclusive power-protection design activates automatically if the supplied current and voltage change significantly, effectively protecting the board and all connected devices.
