Specifications
Components
Amlogic S905X3 quad-core Cortex-A55 SoC with Mali-G31 GPU, supports 4K HDR decode.
Overview
The Sweet Potato (model AML-S905X3-CC) is Libre Computer's high-performance successor to the Le Potato, powered by the Amlogic S905X3 quad-core Cortex-A55 SoC. It upgrades the previous generation with faster CPU cores, a more capable Mali-G31 GPU, USB 3.0 connectivity, and USB-C power input. Available in 2GB and 4GB DDR4 configurations with 8GB or 32GB eMMC storage options.
One of the Sweet Potato's key improvements over the Le Potato is its four USB 3.0 Type-A ports, enabling fast peripheral connectivity and external storage for NAS and desktop workloads. It also supports 4K HDR video decode and output via HDMI, making it well-suited for media center deployments. A 40-pin GPIO header maintains compatibility with many Pi accessories.
Like all Libre Computer boards, the Sweet Potato benefits from strong mainline Linux kernel support and is fully supported by Armbian with Debian and Ubuntu images. It is powered via a standard 5V/3A USB-C connection and does not include built-in WiFi or Bluetooth, keeping the design clean and focused on wired use cases.
