NVIDIA Jetson Orin/Introduction: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 21:03, 24 June 2022

There are three main pieces needed to start evaluating an NVIDIA Jetson platform:

The System on Module (SoM): The SoM supplies the computing elements such as the CPU cores, the GPU, the hardware accelerators, the memory, and the interfaces to communicate with the system in the same printed circuit board (PCB).
The Carrier Board: It provides the physical interfaces to use the SoM. The carrier board can be a developer kit or a custom board. The developer kit is very useful to evaluate the capabilities of the SoM in the prototyping phase of your project, and then move to a custom carrier board that is designed with the specific requirements for your use case.
The Board Support Package (BSP):

The NVIDIA Jetson SoMs have a rich ecosystem of software tools and carrier boards, along with good documentation and an active development community, making the Jetson family a great choice for projects that require high performance on embedded systems.

In this section, you are going to learn about the NVIDIA Jetson Orin and what this platform has to offer. When you finish this section you are going to have a general knowledge of Orin's key features, its developer kits, and the software available for development on this platform.

The SoM Overview section summarizes the hardware capabilities of the Orin SoM, its peripherals, and packaging specifications.
The Carrier Boards section explores the supported carrier boards available for the Orin.
The Software Support section explores the available software development kits and tools for the Orin.
