= Welcome to Sunxi =

This wiki is dedicated to software and hardware documentation related to hacking sunxi based devices and to the devices themselves and is maintained by the linux-sunxi community portal.

What is sunxi?
sunxi represents the family of ARM SoC (System on Chip) designed for embedded systems, and made by Allwinner Tech. in Zhuhai (Guangdong, China). The most popular sunxi SoC model is the Allwinner A10 and the Allwinner A13. Their predecessor was an ARM9 named Boxchip F20 ( sun3i ) and their successors are A20 and Allwinner A31. See Allwinner SoC Family for more information.

The support for sunxi devices is still under development so things may change quite rapidly at times.
