Hi,

I'm not sure where you are getting your information from, but as I told
before I actually *own* this board in the non-development version and it
has an RK3528 SoC/silkscreen - I just was too lazy to photograph it my own
but I did now [0]
I have the MangoPi M28S, M28K and M28C boards.
The M28K board does have a silkscreen of RK3528A. [2]
Nope.

Are you really questioning my picture? Ridiculous ... see [0]
Regardless of whether the silkscreen is RK3528 or RK3528A,
U-Boot reports that the SoC on these boards is RK3528A. (via OTP [1])
So one possibility is that Rockchip forgot to update the silkscreen.

Comparison chip block diagram:
1. Earlier version: https://docs.armsom.org/img/sige/rk3528.png
2. Final version: https://docs.radxa.com/img/e/e20c/radxa-e20c-chip-diagram.webp

The difference seems to be that RK3528 uses I2S while RK3528A uses SAI.
But from the updated diagram here [3], RK3528 also uses the SAI interface.

Rockchip BSP does not make any distinction between RK3528 and RK3528A,
so it is meaningless to continue to worry about non-A versions.
I'm sort of impressed on with which conviction you continue to claim plain
wrong things: [1], [2], [3].
I'm fine if upstream decides not to care. But it is and remains wrong to
claim that the other version does not exist - otherwise I doubt Rockchip
would have gone to the trouble of building the distinction into their SDK
AND publishing different datasheets.
