     RV1103B CPU module

The Boardcon EM1103B is a compact single-board computer (SBC) built around Rockchip’s RV1103B, a highly integrated vision processor SoC optimized for AI-driven applications such as smart IP cameras, intelligent doorbells, and Battery IPC. Combining robust processing power, advanced imaging capabilities, and versatile connectivity, the EM1103B delivers a streamlined solution for next-generation vision-based IoT systems.

Powerful AI & Vision Processing

At its core, the RV1103B features a single-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU with NEON and FPU support, paired with a built-in NPU (Neural Processing Unit) capable of INT8 operations. This enables efficient execution of AI models converted from popular frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Caffe, making the EM1103B ideal for real-time object detection, facial recognition, and other machine learning tasks.

Advanced Imaging Capabilities

The EM1103B leverages Rockchip’s 8MP hardware ISP with dual MIPI CSI interfaces, supporting simultaneous video input from two camera sensors. Integrated HDR, 3A (AE/AF/AWB), 3DNR, and other algorithm accelerators ensure superior image quality even in challenging lighting conditions. The SoC’s multi-stream H.265/H.264 video encoding allows concurrent high-resolution local storage and lower-resolution cloud streaming, optimizing bandwidth and storage efficiency.

Versatile Connectivity & Expandability

Designed for flexibility, the EM1103B offers dual 2-lane MIPI camera support, a micro SD slot, 100M Ethernet, Wi-Fi, speaker, and mic interfaces. Unique features include a fingerprint sensor interface (compatible with FPM383C modules) and an onboard PIR sensor for motion detection. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support (5V) simplifies deployment in surveillance and access control systems.

Compact Design & Low Power Consumption

The EM1103B adopts a modular design with a 22mm x 19mm core board and a 110mm x 70mm baseboard, connected via a 100-pin board-to-board connector. Its fast boot-up time and ultra-low power consumption make it ideal for always-on devices like smart doorbells and IP cameras, while the integrated 16-bit DRAM and RTC ensure reliable operation.

Combining Rockchip’s cutting-edge vision processing with Boardcon’s hardware expertise, the EM1103B empowers developers to build intelligent, responsive, and energy-efficient AIoT solutions with ease.
