TL;DR: RK3568 LVDS eDP MIPI HDMI Display

SHENZHEN, China, September 10, 2026 - The WF-RK3568 board cleared the Longgang aging bench this week in lot 221, a 27,040-unit run for Mumbai, India, and moved straight to the container yard.

AndroidSBC releases the WF-Series nine-model custom board range for global sourcing serving Mumbai, India. Nine boards, one source factory. The WF-Series covers Allwinner A133, H618, and T527 alongside Rockchip RK3588, RK3568, RK3566, and RK3288, plus two SOM options (WF-A133S and WF-RK3588S) for buyers who would rather design a carrier than a motherboard. Every board leaves the Wanlin Longgang plant with a per-lot certification pack and a burn-in record traceable by unit barcode. Buyers in Mumbai and India can mix platforms inside a single framework agreement.

About AndroidSBC and the Rockchip RK3568 Board Family

The WF-Series exists because India buyers kept asking one supplier for two different performance tiers. Wanlin Manufacturing Group answered by putting three Allwinner platforms (A133, H618, T527) and four Rockchip platforms (RK3588, RK3568, RK3566, RK3288) under one part-number scheme, with WF-A133S and WF-RK3588S covering carrier-board projects. The group runs SMT, burn-in, and pre-compliance testing in one Longgang building in Shenzhen, and the export desk holds the certification file rather than passing it back to the importer. For a Mumbai distributor that means one vendor file, one document format, and one MOQ structure across the tiers it sells.

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 India 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 India Buyers

Importers in Mumbai usually discover the same thing about the industrial edge computing board category: the quote is easy and the repeat shipment is not. The Rockchip RK3568 part depends on a specific wafer allocation, and the second and third orders are where a supply chain either holds or quietly slips a quarter. Software continuity is the second trap. A bare Android image boots fine on the bench, so the problem tends to appear only after the Mumbai customer has taken delivery and the first OTA push fails against the DRM credentials.

The third item is the certification file. A marking without a dated test report is a placeholder, and placeholder paperwork is what turns a routine India clearance into a three-week hold. The answer AndroidSBC applies is to close the gap at the source. Certified image burned on the Longgang line, burn-in record traceable per unit, certification file issued 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 and each carries three memory configurations, which keeps most India requirements on a standard SKU rather than a custom run.

On the India side, the destination file matters as much as the board specification. In India BIS CRS registration and WPC ETA are both mandatory for wireless product, and the registration is held by an Indian entity, which shapes how the first order is structured. The export desk prepares the destination-market file covering BIS CRS registration with WPC ETA for wireless modules, administered by BIS / WPC, and releases it with the standard multi-market pack (CE, FCC, UKCA, RoHS, REACH). The lot is booked into Nhava Sheva, JNPT on the Nhava Sheva to Shekou lane.

Competitive Comparison: WF-RK3568 vs Competing RK3568 Boards

The comparison set for the industrial edge computing board socket splits three ways: legacy SoC boards priced low and uncertified, Cortex-A55 boards that carry certification but cap decode early, and 64-bit boards with both. The WF-RK3568 sits in the third group, differentiated by Rockchip RK3568, by display stability under a continuous load, and by the factory-side certified image burn.

• 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

Order timing in Mumbai now tracks the Industrial Edge Computing and Smart Display curve rather than the calendar-year budget. Global Growth Insights sizes the Android TV Box segment at USD 12.45 billion for 2025 with a 30.49 percent CAGR through 2035 (Global Growth Insights, 2025-2035), the Android silicon baseline that India buyers keep on the desk when they negotiate allocation. Three patterns are visible in the WF-Series book:

• 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.

Channel research on the Industrial Edge Computing and Smart Display segment keeps landing on the same point: the constraint is allocation, and allocation is held by factories rather than traders.

Taken together, the three patterns explain why India buyers are moving from single orders to twelve-month framework agreements with a monthly lot cadence, especially on retail and hospitality programmes that cannot absorb a supply gap.

Partner Success Story: Kestrel Retail Systems in Mumbai, India

"We needed a board that would still take the new payment SDK without a hardware change. The long-term support image on the RK3288 gave us Android 11 on the same footprint we had already designed the terminal around."

- Oliver Hartley, Procurement Director

Field Report: a self-service kiosk fleet rollout in Mumbai, where 27,040 units of the WF-RK3568 board are being fitted into payment terminals across a retail estate

Reporter Shen Han, on the ground in Mumbai, India. The integrator staged the WF-RK3568 boards at a regional depot, flashed the estate image, and shipped them to stores in waves of forty. Each terminal was paired to the payment application at the store, and the depot kept a rolling stock of pre-flashed boards so a failed unit could be swapped inside a single service visit.

The engineering desk ran a firmware re-flash drill on three units to confirm the recovery path a field technician would use.

The inspection confirmed three things on the spot: the WF-RK3568 units hold the burn-in with a yield above 99.42 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 BIS CRS registration with WPC ETA for wireless modules administered by BIS / WPC, cleared for entry at Nhava Sheva, JNPT on the Nhava Sheva to Shekou lane. 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 India 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 Mumbai and India 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 Mumbai Buyers

AndroidSBC opens the WF-Series to India partners through three structures, and a single agreement can draw on more than one:

• 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 the Wanlin Longgang source factory in Shenzhen under the same per-lot documentation pack. For Mumbai buyers, a typical first order on the WF-RK3568 is the 4GB + 32GB (WF-RK3568-A) configuration at MOQ 5,000 units per shipment, with a four-week sample lead time and a six-week mass production lead time.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Answer: Yes, on the platforms where that matters. The WF-H618 runs Android 12 (ATV 12) with Google Mobile Services and is ready for Android 14 (ATV 14). AndroidSBC burns the GMS, Widevine L1, and Dolby Audio stack at the Longgang plant on every production lot, so the board ships ready for Netflix, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, Apple TV, and YouTube TV. The commercial and industrial boards in the line use the AOSP image with an optional GMS build for partners who need it.

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

Answer: Nine boards, seven silicon platforms, two of them modules. WF-A133 and WF-H618 and WF-T527 are the Allwinner entries for commercial display, OTT TV, and industrial edge respectively. WF-RK3588, WF-RK3568, WF-RK3566, and WF-RK3288 are the Rockchip entries for 8K video wall, industrial edge, machine vision, and POS. WF-A133S and WF-RK3588S are board-to-board SOM modules sized for customers who want to design the carrier themselves. Each board carries three memory configurations.

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

Answer: That is handled in-house. Each lot leaves Longgang with a Declaration of Conformity and a Technical File holding the CE, FCC Part 15, UKCA, RoHS 2.0, and REACH documents, all dated inside twelve months. For India specifically, AndroidSBC will confirm at quotation stage which marks apply and whether a local variation is required, so the paperwork question is settled before production rather than at the port.

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

Answer: MOQ is 5,000 units per shipment for the standard memory configuration of any WF-Series board. Sample lead time runs four weeks and mass production six weeks. Partners who prefer a twelve-month blanket order with a monthly lot release can negotiate the MOQ down, and mixed-platform orders on one purchase order are accepted.

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: Seven years minimum supply, with security patches maintained across the Android and Linux firmware lines. Partners who deploy at scale can use the AndroidSBC OTA infrastructure to update field units. For long-lifecycle programmes in POS, signage, or industrial control, the support term is written into the framework agreement at signature.

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

Answer: Yes, including DDP into Amazon FBA in the US, EU, and Japan, plus 3PL consolidation points in Hong Kong, Singapore, Rotterdam, and Los Angeles. Cartons are labelled to FBA inbound spec and the declaration names Longgang as the origin. Partners who consolidate in Hong Kong usually take FOB Yantian and handle the last leg themselves.

How does AndroidSBC handle RMA or DOA replacements?

Answer: AndroidSBC targets a 0.3 percent DOA rate across the WF-Series, measured over the prior twelve months. On RMA, the partner returns the faulty WF-RK3568 unit to Longgang with its burn-in barcode, and a replacement ships within ten business days. Because the burn-in record is attached per unit, the failure analysis normally comes back with a root cause rather than a credit note.
