PX30 adopts a 28nm process, which is similar to its counterparts, Allwinner A64 (40nm) or Rockchip RK3326 (28nm), but consumes more power compared to more advanced 14nm/12nm processors (such as Amlogic S905X3).
Under typical application scenarios, the standby power consumption of PX30 is about 0.5W, and the full-load power consumption is about 2-3W, which is the average level of low-end embedded processors.
PX30 supports Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling (DVFS), which adjusts the performance and power consumption according to the load, but the energy efficiency ratio is not as good as that of the new generation of processors, such as Rockchip RK3566 (22nm) or Amlogic A311D (12nm).
In fixed load scenarios such as video decoding, the PX30 outperforms the Allwinner H6 (40nm) in terms of power consumption, but is weaker than the Amlogic S905X4 (12nm).
Processor Process Typical Power Consumption (Full Load) Key Advantage Scenarios
Rockchip PX30 28nm 2-3W Low-cost Embedded Devices
Rockchip RK3566 22nm 1.8-2.5W Industrial Controls, AI Edge Computing
The PX30 is suitable for cost-sensitive scenarios that do not have a high performance demand (e.g., advertisement machines, simple industrial control devices), but If pursuing lower power consumption or higher performance, it is recommended to consider competing products with 12nm/22nm process.
