  • 512 MB DDR3 memory runs Android Ubuntu Debian Armbian
  • 10/100 Ethernet plus USB 2.0 host and OTG ports
  • 48 × 46 mm board weighs 26 g with 26-pin GPIO header

Compact barebone for embedded projects

The NuoTo Orange Pi Zero is a 48 mm by 46 mm single-board computer built around an AllWinner H3 quad-core Cortex-A7 processor. It ships with 512 MB of DDR3 memory and a Mali400MP2 GPU running at 600 MHz. The board targets developers and hobbyists who need a low-cost Linux or Android platform for headless or display-driven appliances.

10/100 Ethernet and single USB host limit throughput

Network connectivity is restricted to a 10/100 Mbit RJ45 port, so sustained transfers will saturate well below gigabit speeds. Only one USB 2.0 host port is available for peripherals; the second USB 2.0 interface is an OTG port that can also supply power to the board. Storage relies on a micro-SD card up to 64 GB or the 2 MB SPI flash, ruling out high-speed solid-state drives.

Replaces older Pi Zero boards when GPIO count

This board adds a 26-pin header and a 13-pin header with extra USB, IR, audio and UART lines, giving more expansion options than the original Pi Zero. The jump is worthwhile when a project needs the additional pins or the H.265/HEVC 4K decode capability of the H3 SoC. It is not suited for builders who want more storage bandwidth, gigabit networking or multiple USB hosts without an external hub.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 512 MB DDR3 board or a larger capacity?

This listing is for the 512 MB DDR3 version only; no other memory capacity is offered.

What does the H3 quad-core Cortex-A7 at 600 MHz Mali400MP2 GPU mean for daily use?

The H3 quad-core Cortex-A7 with Mali400MP2 GPU at 600 MHz handles 4K H.265/HEVC playback and runs Android 4.4, Ubuntu, Debian or Armbian for light desktop or embedded tasks.

What does the 10/100M Ethernet RJ45 port cap at in practice?

The onboard 10/100M Ethernet RJ45 limits wired throughput to 100 Mbps maximum.
