• The NanoPi Fire3 is a high performance ARM Board developed by FriendlyElec for Hobbyists, Makers and Hackers for IOT projects. It features Samsung's Cortex-A53 Octa Core S5P6818@1.4GHz SoC and 1GB 32bit DDR3 RAM. It has a Gbps Ethernet port. It boots Android and Debian from a TF card. It integrates an HDMI and LCD interface. Its adoption of the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pin header makes it compatible with both Raspberry Pi's external GPIO modules and Arduino's shield boards. Its PCB dimension is 75 x 40 mm.

• USB 2.0 Host

with 1A over current protection

Note

1. SYS_3.3V: 3.3V power output
2. VDD_5V: 5V power input/output. When the external device’s power is greater than the MicroUSB’s the external device is charging the board otherwise the board powers the external device. The input range is 4.7V ~ 5.5V

4 Get Started

4.1 Essentials You Need

Before starting to use your NanoPi Fire3 get the following items ready

• NanoPi Fire3
• SD Card: Class 10 or Above, minimum 8GB SDHC
• A DC 5V/2A power is a must
• HDMI monitor or LCD
• USB keyboard, mouse and possible a USB hub(or a TTL to serial board)
• A host computer running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit system

4.2 Make an Installation SD Card

4.2.1 Boot NanoPi Fire3 from SD Card

Get the following files from here to download necessary files:

• Get a 8G SDHC card and backup its data if necessary
  

Image Files:
s5p6818-debian-sd4g-YYYYMMDD.img	Debian image files
s5p6818-android-sd4g-YYYYMMDD.img	Android image files
s5p6818-FriendlyCore-Xenial-4.4-YYYYMMDD.img	Ubuntu Core + QT image files
Flash Utility:
win32diskimager.rar	Windows utility. Under Linux users can use "dd"

• Uncompress these files. Insert an SD card(at least 8G) into a Windows PC and run the win32diskimager utility as administrator. On the utility's main window select your SD card's drive, the wanted image file and click on "write" to start flashing the SD card.
• Insert this card into your NanoPi Fire3's boot slot, press and hold the boot key and power on (with a 5V/2A power source). If the PWR LED is on and LED1 is blinking this indicates your NanoPi Fire3 has successfully booted.
