Customizable Options for SBCs



1. Custom SBC Outline & Mechanical Configuration


In some applications, compact and ultra-thin housings are highly desirable, resulting in very limited internal space. Rocktech offers fully customized SBC outlines tailored to the customer’s mechanical constraints — including board dimensions, irregular shapes, thickness profiles, and precise mounting hole placements.



2. Custom SBC Hardware Configuration - SoC, Memory, and Storage Options


Application requirements for custom SBCs can vary significantly — from high-performance processing and low-power standby, to large memory for algorithm-intensive embedded applications or high-capacity storage for video recording. Rocktech offers tailored single board computer configurations, including SoC, DDR, and Flash combinations, optimized for your specific use case. Our custom SBC solutions are designed to achieve the right balance between performance, power efficiency, and cost for your embedded system.



3. Flexible I/O and Connector Customization for Embedded Applications


Rocktech offers flexible interface configuration options for custom SBCs, supporting a wide range of embedded I/O standards such as LVDS, MIPI, RGB, SPI, I²C, UART, RS232, RS485, Camera, Zigbee, Ethernet, POE, RFID and GPIO. Whether your application requires high-speed video output, sensor integration, or legacy serial communication, we tailor the interface layout and pin mapping to match your specific hardware and system requirements.

Connector types can also be customized to fit specific mechanical or space constraints. For example, while the standard connector for USB Host is typically a USB Type-A port, its size may be too large for compact enclosures. Since USB Host functionality only requires four pins, we can replace the Type-A connector with a smaller 4-pin alternative, ensuring the same functionality in a reduced footprint.



4. Software(BSP) Development for Custom SBC


Rocktech offers full BSP (Board Support Package) development services for both Android and Linux-based embedded platforms, tailored specifically for custom Single Board Computers (SBCs). This includes bootloader (U-Boot) and kernel customization, as well as driver development for various hardware components such as TFT displays, touch panels, audio, and USB. We also support peripheral interfaces like GPIO, I²C, SPI, and UART to ensure complete hardware compatibility with your custom SBC design.

Our services cover Android HAL integration, power management, storage configuration, secure boot, and OTA updates. Each BSP is carefully optimized to match the hardware architecture and functional requirements of your embedded SBC, ensuring stable performance and smooth system integration.

Additionally, we provide customization of the boot screen, automatic startup of the client's application, integration of required libraries, and development of dedicated APIs to support seamless interaction between your application and the underlying hardware.



5. Technical Support for Customer App Integration


Rocktech provides technical support to help customers develop and integrate their applications on our custom SBC platforms. Whether your app runs on Android or Linux, our engineering team assists with API integration and hardware communication on custom single board computers — including interfaces such as GPIO, UART, I²C, and SPI — along with system service configuration, auto-start behavior, and performance tuning.

If a standard API is available, your application can directly call it. For interfaces without a standard API — such as GPIO, UART, or SPI — we provide usage guides, demo code, or detailed documentation to ensure smooth development and integration with your custom SBC.

We also support library inclusion, HAL layer customization, and real-world testing to ensure your application runs reliably on the target embedded SBC hardware.
