COMPILING XPAD ODROID XU4 1080P

There are Android images available as well as different third-party images. The ODROID-XU4 officially supports Ubuntu 18.04 with the Linux 4.9 and 4.14 ARM kernels. There are thermal results later in this article, but the fan is certainly needed in the case of this SoC/board.įigure 3 - The XU4 comes with a Exynos 5 SoC for cooling (Figure 2 - The XU4 control board measures in at 83 x 58mm)įor cooling, the Exynos 5 SoC, an active heat sink, ships with this ARM SBC.

Going in hand with this Exynos 5 SoC is 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM, HDMI 1.4 supporting 1080p output, one USB 2.0 port, two USB 3.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet, and a 30-pin GPIO header, all contained on a PCB just 83 x 58 mm (3.23” x 2.24”).įigure 2 - The XU4 control board measures in at 83 x 58mm

The ODROID-XU4 is built around a Samsung Exynos5422 SoC that features four Cortex-A15 cores at 2.0GHz and four Cortex-A7 cores at 1.3GHz, while the graphics are provided by a Mali-T628. Here's a look at the performance of the ODROID-XU4 compared to a variety of other single board computers.įigure 1 - The ODROID-XU4 single board computer

This ARM SBC that measures in at about 82 x 58 x 22 mm (3.23” x 2.24” x 0.87”) offers much better performance than many sub-$100 ARM SBCs, while featuring dual USB 3.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet, eMMC storage, and compatibility with older XU3 ARM SBCs. Hardkernel recently sent over the ODROID-XU4 for benchmarking.
