Other Content

Rockchip Matrix IO design is one of the key advantages of the Luckfox Lyra Ultra series. It supports flexible multiplexing for PWM, UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, ADC, and GPIO functions, which is useful when building compact Linux control systems with multiple peripherals.

Wireless and wired connectivity on one board makes this model particularly practical for gateways, display nodes, and distributed control devices. The board combines Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 / BLE, and 10/100M Ethernet in a single Linux-ready platform.

PoE support is a real deployment advantage. The reserved PoE module header and included PoE module help simplify cabling when this RK3506B board is used in networking cabinets, wall-mounted terminals, and industrial control boxes.
