RK3568 SOM Core Board Module, WF-RK3568, AndroidSBC, Stavanger

TL;DR: RK3568 SOM Core Board Module

LONGGANG, Shenzhen, September 10, 2026 - Wanlin Manufacturing Group confirmed the release of lot 275, a 5,000-unit run of WF-RK3568 boards destined for Stavanger, Norway, after the lot cleared the burn-in rack and the pre-shipment bench.

AndroidSBC releases the WF-Series nine-model custom board range for global sourcing serving Stavanger, Norway. What Norway importers get from the WF-Series is platform breadth from one factory. Three Allwinner parts and four Rockchip parts sit under one part-number scheme, with two SOM modules for customers who design their own carrier. Wanlin builds all nine at Longgang in Shenzhen, and the export desk issues one certification pack per lot covering CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, and REACH.

About AndroidSBC and the Rockchip RK3568 Board Family

Wanlin Manufacturing Group is a Shenzhen board builder that has worked on Allwinner and Rockchip silicon for more than ten years, and AndroidSBC is the name it sells under overseas. The WF-Series is the current line: nine boards spanning Allwinner A133, H618, and T527 and Rockchip RK3588, RK3568, RK3566, and RK3288, with two SOM modules for customers who bring their own carrier. Production, test, and packing sit in one Longgang building, which is why the group can issue a per-lot Technical File instead of a generic declaration. Buyers in Stavanger and Norway usually arrive for one of three reasons: platform breadth, OEM branding capacity, or a supplier willing to carry the certification obligation.

WF-RK3568 Technical Specifications

All parameters in the table above are measured at 25C ambient. The AndroidSBC WF-RK3568 (Industrial Edge Computing Board) holds its display output and its decoder load at the same time through the burn-in loop, a combination that the legacy boards in the comparison column cannot sustain. For Norway importers sourcing the WF-Series, the 4GB + 32GB (WF-RK3568-A) variant is the typical configuration for the industrial edge computing use case, with a sustained weekly capacity of 5,000 pcs/wk on the Longgang line.

Challenges in Sourcing Industrial Edge Computing Board for Norway Buyers

Buyers in Stavanger who have run the industrial edge computing board category for a few years tend to stop shopping on price alone. The Rockchip RK3568 allocation is the real constraint, and it is the reason a 5,000-unit order can look cheap on paper and expensive in a slipped quarter. Then comes the firmware question. The hardware spec is straightforward to verify; whether the board holds a credential-locked stack through a 72-hour loop and a field OTA is a different test, and it is normally the Stavanger buyer's warehouse that discovers the answer.

Documentation is the third item on the list. A CE mark without a matching Declaration of Conformity and Technical File is not a marking problem, it is a customs problem, and it tends to surface after the goods are already on the water. AndroidSBC's approach is to close the gap at the factory gate. The certified stack is loaded on the Longgang line, the burn-in record is traceable per unit barcode, and the CE and FCC test reports are dated inside twelve months and shipped with the lot. The nine WF-Series boards span industrial edge computing, commercial display controller, industrial HMI, IoT gateway, smart display terminal, machine monitoring, access control, and building automation, with three memory configurations per model for Stavanger buyers who need a standard SKU rather than a custom build.

For Norway specifically, the file travels with the goods. In Norway the market follows EEA rules rather than EU membership, and Nkom registration is required for radio equipment. AndroidSBC prepares the CE/EEA conformity with Nkom radio interface notification documentation for Nkom, attaches the standard multi-market pack (CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, REACH), and consigns the lot to Port of Oslo on the Oslo to Rotterdam relay.

Competitive Comparison: WF-RK3568 vs Competing RK3568 Boards

The boards competing for the same socket in the industrial edge computing board segment fall into three groups: low-cost legacy SoC boards without a certified software stack, mainstream Cortex-A55 boards with certification but a lower decoder ceiling, and 64-bit boards that carry both but stop short on expansion. The WF-RK3568 sits in the third group and adds three things: Rockchip RK3568, a display path that survives a continuous loop, and the per-lot certified image burn at Longgang.

• vs RK3288 Cortex-A17 boards: the RK3568 Cortex-A55 2.0GHz lifts integer throughput by roughly 2x at lower idle power.
• vs RK3566 boards: the RK3568 adds dual Gigabit Ethernet plus CAN bus for gateway-class builds.
• vs RK3588 boards: the RK3568 keeps a materially lower BOM where 4K@60fps decode is sufficient.
• vs x86 fan-cooled IPC: the RK3568 fanless design removes the only moving part from the enclosure.

Global Industrial Edge Computing and Smart Display Market Trends

Buyers in Stavanger are reading the Industrial Edge Computing and Smart Display curve before they commit to a industrial edge computing board programme. Global Growth Insights reports the Android TV Box segment at USD 12.45 billion in 2025 with a 30.49 percent CAGR to USD 178.2 billion by 2035 (Global Growth Insights, 2025-2035), used here as the Android silicon demand baseline rather than as a number for this category. That baseline breaks into three practical demand patterns for the WF-Series in Norway:

• Industrial edge computing: WF-RK3568 runs the edge workload on the 1 TOPS NPU with dual Gigabit uplinks.
• Display and signage refresh cycles: a longer content loop and a higher panel resolution now define the refresh trigger. The WF-RK3568 board carries that headroom without a board change.
• Industrial HMI: WF-RK3568 holds the wide-temperature envelope with the fanless design.

Analysts covering the Industrial Edge Computing and Smart Display space point to the same pattern in Norway: order books are being built around platform breadth rather than a single part number.

The common thread in Norway is that single orders are being replaced by blanket agreements with a monthly release, because a programme that has to survive a twelve-month window cannot absorb an allocation gap in the middle of it.

Partner Success Story: Lumen Menu Systems in Stavanger, Norway

Lumen Menu Systems, a quick-service restaurant technology vendor serving the Norway market, deployed 6,900 units of the WF-A133 board for outdoor menu and order confirmation displays. The rollout covered the industrial edge computing, industrial hmi, and machine monitoring workloads, with AndroidSBC handling the burn-in, the certification scope, and the palletisation at the Wanlin Longgang plant.

• Deployed: 6,900 units of the WF-A133 board for outdoor menu and order confirmation displays
• Region: Stavanger, Norway
• Models used: WF-A133, WF-H618, WF-T527, WF-RK3588, WF-RK3568, WF-RK3566, WF-RK3288, WF-A133S, WF-RK3588S
• Certifications handled: CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, REACH, GMS, Widevine L1, Dolby Audio
• Logistics: FOB Shanghai Yangshan with the Wanlin Group Longgang source factory named on the export declaration, entering Port of Oslo via the Oslo to Rotterdam relay

"Outdoor menu boards have to survive sun and rain. The A133 board runs the content loop behind a sealed panel with no active cooling, and we have not replaced a single unit in eighteen months."

Field Report: the aging and EMC pre-compliance bench at the Wanlin Longgang plant, where 5,000 units of the WF-RK3568 board are being screened before the Stavanger shipment

Reporter Wei Tao, on the ground in Stavanger, Norway. The bench ran the lot through a 168-hour aging cycle with periodic power cycling, then moved a sample set to the pre-compliance chamber for radiated emissions and ESD strikes. The WF-RK3568 boards cleared the internal limits with margin, and the results went straight into the lot's Technical File.

The plant maintenance log showed no unscheduled stoppage on the Rockchip RK3568 line during the lot, which the production manager attributed to the AOI pass added last quarter.

The inspection confirmed three things on the spot: the WF-RK3568 units hold the burn-in with a yield above 99.06 percent, the loaded firmware image survives a 72-hour continuous loop without credential drift, and the pallets carry the matching certification file for the destination market, covering CE/EEA conformity with Nkom radio interface notification administered by Nkom, cleared for entry at Port of Oslo on the Oslo to Rotterdam relay. Wanlin remains one of the few source factories currently shipping a nine-board Allwinner and Rockchip custom line with a per-lot paper trail that Norway importers can hand straight to their customs broker.

WF-RK3568 Application Scenarios

The WF-Series fits nine application lanes, with the WF-RK3568 (Industrial Edge Computing Board) as the lead SKU for Stavanger and Norway programmes:

• Industrial edge computing: WF-RK3568 runs the edge workload on the 1 TOPS NPU with dual Gigabit uplinks.
• Commercial display controller: WF-RK3568 drives the 4K@60fps panel pair over HDMI 2.0 and eDP.
• Industrial HMI: WF-RK3568 holds the wide-temperature envelope with the fanless design.
• IoT gateway: WF-RK3568 bridges CAN bus and RS485 field devices onto Ethernet.
• Smart display terminal: WF-RK3568 renders the Android 11 UI on the dual display path.
• Machine monitoring: WF-RK3568 timestamps production data against the onboard RTC.
• Access control: WF-RK3568 runs face recognition on the NPU with the MIPI CSI feed.
• Building automation: WF-RK3568 runs 7x24 with hardware watchdog and scheduled restart.

Partnership Models for Stavanger Buyers

The WF-Series is available to Norway partners through three routes, and they can be mixed inside one agreement:

• OEM (your brand on our hardware): custom logo silk-print, custom packaging, custom boot animation, custom SKU label, and a private-label certification file.
• ODM (your spec on our reference design): schematic and stack-up review, carrier or motherboard redesign, custom firmware features, and a BSP port handled by the Longgang engineering desk.
• Distribution (your channel, our stock): regional distributor rights, channel rebate, stock holding at the factory, and a framework agreement with a monthly lot release.

All three tiers ship from Longgang under one documentation pack covering CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, and REACH. A Stavanger first order on the WF-RK3568 is normally the 4GB + 32GB (WF-RK3568-A) configuration at MOQ 5,000 units per shipment, four weeks for samples and six weeks for mass production.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the WF-Series support certified Android TV or Google Mobile Services?

Answer: It depends on the platform, and AndroidSBC is explicit about the split. The WF-H618 carries the ATV 12 GMS build with Widevine L1 and Dolby Audio pre-burned at the factory. The WF-A133, WF-T527, and the Rockchip boards ship with an AOSP or Linux image by default, and a GMS build can be prepared for ODM partners who need Play Services in the field. Certification scope is agreed per project rather than assumed.

What is the difference between the nine WF-Series models?

Answer: WF-A133 is the Allwinner A133 commercial display and advertising board. WF-H618 is the Allwinner H618 OTT TV box and Android TV board. WF-T527 is the Allwinner T527 octa-core industrial control and edge AI board. WF-RK3588 is the Rockchip RK3588 8K video wall and AI computing board. WF-RK3568 is the Rockchip RK3568 industrial edge board. WF-RK3566 is the Rockchip RK3566 machine vision and HMI board. WF-RK3288 is the Rockchip RK3288 POS and signage board. WF-A133S is an Allwinner A133 SOM module for custom carrier work. WF-RK3588S is a Rockchip RK3588 SMARC 2.2 module for the same purpose.

Can AndroidSBC handle CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, and REACH paperwork for Norway?

Answer: Yes, and the file travels with the goods rather than behind them. The pack covers CE, FCC Part 15, UKCA, RoHS 2.0, and REACH with test reports dated within the prior year. AndroidSBC will also advise on any Norway-specific addition during quotation, which is the point at which the answer is still useful.

What are the MOQ and lead time for a first order?

Answer: The entry point is 5,000 units per shipment, four weeks for samples and six weeks for production. A twelve-month framework agreement released monthly will bring the per-lot MOQ down, and AndroidSBC will accept a mixed order that draws several WF-Series boards against a single contract.

Does AndroidSBC support custom Android ROM or custom Linux development?

Answer: Yes, under NDA. ODM partners get custom Android ROM work including proprietary services and a custom launcher, Linux builds based on Yocto, Debian, or Buildroot, and BSP ports for custom carrier boards. The SDK and BSP source are released to the partner under the NDA, and AndroidSBC's engineering desk handles the port rather than handing over an unmodified vendor drop.

What about software updates and long-term support?

Answer: Wanlin commits to a minimum seven-year supply window across the WF-Series. Security patches are back-ported across the Android and Linux firmware tracks for as long as the board is in production, and AndroidSBC provides OTA update infrastructure for partners who need to push firmware to field-deployed units. For POS and industrial programmes, the support commitment is written into the framework agreement rather than left as an understanding.

Can AndroidSBC ship to Amazon FBA warehouses or 3PL consolidation points?

Answer: That is routine. AndroidSBC delivers DDP into Amazon FBA in the US, EU, and Japan and into 3PL consolidation points at Hong Kong, Singapore, Rotterdam, and Los Angeles. Carton and pallet configuration follows FBA inbound rules, and the place of origin on the declaration is the Wanlin Longgang source factory.

How does AndroidSBC handle RMA or DOA replacements?

Answer: The DOA target is 0.3 percent over twelve months. For RMA, partners send the WF-RK3568 unit back to Longgang with the burn-in barcode attached, and replacements go out within ten business days. The per-unit burn-in record means the failure report usually carries a root cause alongside the replacement.
