Hi3516DV500/Hi3519DV500 Product Introduction
The integration of AI into security is accelerating: AI vision has now fully permeated fields such as intelligent surveillance, edge computing, access control terminals, vehicle recognition, and industrial vision. The evolution from “seeing clearly” to “understanding” has driven simultaneous advancements in computing power and ISP performance to meet the demands of algorithms for image recognition, behavior analysis, object detection, and more. From single-chip solutions to ecosystem-ready packages, companies are no longer focusing solely on SoC parameters but are instead seeking turnkey, production-ready solutions (hardware and software platforms + SDK + ecosystem toolchains). In the era of rapid AI vision productization, choosing the right platform is more critical than selecting a single chip.
Based on the HiSilicon Hi3516DV500 and Hi3519DV500 chip platforms, Neardi has launched a meticulously designed, highly integrated full-featured core module. While maintaining high performance, this module achieves an ultra-compact design—measuring just 35mm X 35mm—providing a flexible and efficient hardware foundation for various intelligent vision devices.
The core module utilizes a 180-pin stamp hole interface to connect with the carrier board, fully exposing the main peripheral signals of the Hi3516DV500/Hi3519DV500, including video interfaces, networking, storage, serial ports, and I/O control. This design balances high reliability, low cost, and flexibility, allowing easy adaptation to various carrier boards and end-product solutions to meet diverse application needs.
In terms of storage, the module integrates LPDDR4/LPDDR4X high-speed memory with optional configurations of 1GB or 2GB, while also supporting eMMC or SPI-NAND storage solutions, ensuring stable system operation and data caching. At the system level, it supports the Buildroot embedded system, offering developers a lighter and more efficient development experience.
Neardi provides comprehensive technical documentation and engineering resources for this core module, including:
- Chip Datasheets and reference design documents
- Module pin definitions and interface diagrams
- 2D/3D structural drawings and package files
- Software and hardware development kits (SDK) with WIKI documentation support
The module operates within a temperature range of -20℃to +70℃, ensuring stable performance in various industrial and outdoor environments. It is suitable for a wide range of AI vision products, including intelligent surveillance, AI cameras, industrial vision, access control terminals, and edge computing nodes.
Based on the HiSilicon Hi3516DV500 and Hi3519DV500 chip platforms, Neardi’s LKD3516DV500/LKD3519DV500 development board is a high-performance hardware platform tailored for AI vision, intelligent surveillance, and edge computing applications. This series of development boards fully leverages the computational power and ISP advantages of the two chips, combined with flexible and abundant interface resources, providing developers with end-to-end support from prototype verification to mass production.
The development board uses a 12V/3A power input to ensure stable and reliable operation under multi-task high-load conditions. It is equipped with one Gigabit Ethernet interface (1000M Ethernet) to meet the demands of high-speed network transmission and stable remote video streaming.
In terms of audio and video capabilities, the development board features two stereo audio inputs and one audio output, supporting high-fidelity audio capture and playback, making it suitable for voice recognition, sound source localization, and multimedia applications. Two MIPI-CSI camera interfaces support high-definition binocular or multi-camera vision solutions, while one MIPI-DSI display interface can connect to high-definition screens, and one touch panel interface enables intuitive human-machine interaction.
For data transmission, the development board provides one USB 3.0 interface for flexible connection to high-speed storage devices, cameras, or AI peripheral modules. It also integrates Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4 (BT5.4) wireless communication capabilities, supporting high-speed, low-latency wireless data transmission and device interconnection.
To meet diverse industrial control and peripheral expansion needs, the development board also offers various communication interfaces such as UART, RS485, and GPIO, enabling quick integration of external sensors, actuators, and communication modules.
Storage configurations include two combinations: 1GB LPDDR4 + 8GB eMMC and 2GB LPDDR4 + 16GB eMMC, balancing development verification and high-performance deployment.
To help customers accelerate secondary development and system integration, Neardi provides complete development resources and technical documentation support, including:
