K3 RISC-V AI Computing Module

Overview

Features

• 

  High-performance RISC-V AI Processor K3

  Equipped with an 8-core X100 64-bit RISC-V AI Processor SpacemiT Key Stone K3, it features a maximum main frequency of 2.4GHz and a computing power of 130KDMIPS. Supporting the complete RVA23 Profile, it delivers robust performance and can meet the requirements of high-performance computing and complex scenario applications.

• 

  Supports Chinese Operating Systems, Independently Controllable

  The SpacemiT K3 is based on the RISC-V instruction set and our own chip architecture. It fully supports Chinese operating systems and enables complete domestic production for hardware, kernel systems, and upper-layer software and hardware applications, freeing us from reliance on external technologies. It aims to create a secure, trustworthy, and independently controllable Chinese smart computing platform. So far, it has been adapted for systems like Deepin (UnionTech Community Edition), OpenKylin, OpenHarmony 6.1, OpenEuler, and Bianbu.

• 

  RISC-V Parallel Computing & Hardware Virtualization

  Adopts brand-new RISC-V architecture, supports 1024-bit RVV1.0 vector computing and Vector Crypto encryption. With TCM cache & DMA acceleration, it greatly improves data throughput. Relying on RVH1.0, AIA and IOMMU extensions, it fully supports full hardware virtualization for CPU, memory and peripherals.

• 

  Higher-Level Security Defense Technology

  Supports M/S/U three-level privileges, defends against Spectre, Meltdown and other vulnerability attacks at the hardware level, adopts RISC-V PMP/ePMP and dedicated IOPMP mechanisms to establish high-level security protection, supports secure boot, secure storage and signature verification, and integrates AES, SHA, RSA, SM2, SM3 and SM4 algorithms.

• 

  High-Bandwidth LPDDR5 & UFS2.2 High-Speed Storage

  Supports up to 32GB large-capacity LPDDR5 high-bandwidth memory paired with UFS2.2 high speed storage. Featuring larger capacity, higher bandwidth and lower power consumption, it enables faster data read and write speeds to meet the requirements of large model private deployment for memory capacity and real-time response speed.

• 

  Native Support For The Mainline Linux Kernel

  Equipped with the world's first K3 chip that meets the RVA23 Profile, the platform natively supports the Linux kernel mainline (v7.0-rc1) without the need for vendor-specific patches. It officially supports mainstream OSes like Ubuntu 26.04, with ecosystem compatibility, system stability, and long-term maintainability all hitting the standard for mainstream computing platforms. It can directly handle high-performance scenarios like desktop productivity, edge AI model inference, and edge servers.

• 

  Rich Expansion Interfaces

  260Pin gold finger interface, physical form and pin definition compliant with NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano standard. Integrated with I2C, I2S, SPI, UART, CAN, PWM, GPIO, PCIe3.0, USB3.0, USB2.0, MIPI-DSI, MIPI-CSI, DP and other expansion interfaces, to meet peripheral expansion needs of diverse scenarios.
