No hardware documentation?

Tinker Board S R2.0 & R2.0 has a Quick Start Guide or similar.

Will the Tinkerboard 3 not work if I supply 5V from the GPIO header?
There is no DC jack on the circuit diagram, so I can't tell.

hello @shizimi, 

no, it will not be able to power since it needs 12v - 19v power via dc jack.

please refer to the block diagram ch.1.6.1 on page 12: E22692_Tinker_Board_3_UM_WEB.pdf (asus.com)

A few suggestions:
For the GitHub Wiki, please remove the $ in the code snippets.

Also, keep in mind that apt-key is deprecated.

I am testing the Tinker Board 3S and 3 for production deployment on AMRs (including display management). It is also necessary to provide a procedure or inform clients that there is a bootloader issue in a particular series.

Additionally, I have tested on two systems, both Windows and Linux (under Ubuntu 24.04 LTS), and the compilation provided on GitHub does not work on either Debian or Yocto.

Could you also add the settings or configuration for a DSI display in a FAQ? Like #conf:HDMI=off ... conf:DSI=on
And how to rotate the DSI display with the touchscreen.

Here’s a quick update.
Have a nice day!
