## **Funtional Description**

* ### Features

  **Antenna**

  * External Wi-Fi/BT module required

  **CPU**

  * 4× Arm Cortex-A53 (up to 1.8 GHz) + 1× Cortex-M7 (up to 800 MHz)

  **AI Accelerator**

  * Integrated NPU up to 2.3 TOPS

  **Flash Memory**

  * 32 GB eMMC 5.1 + 256 Mbit (32 MB) QSPI NOR Flash

  **RAM**

  * 6 GB LPDDR4 (x32, 48 Gbit), Micron Technology

  **Wireless Protocol**

  * None by default (external Wi-Fi/BLE expansion via PCIe/SDIO/M.2)

  **Chip**

  * SoM module with 4× 2×50-pin board-to-board connectors

  **Maximum GPIO**

  * More than 100 of the 400 connector pins can be used for user I/O/GPIO and major peripheral interfaces (configuration depends on the carrier board design)

  **Operating Voltage**

  * 5 V typical module input (PCA9450C PMIC, supporting a 2.7–5.5 V input range)

  **Power Consumption**

  * Application-dependent (typically 2–5 W, peak up to \~9 W), optimized for low- to mid-power edge AI applications with the PCA9450 PMIC

  **Interface**

  * SoC-level interfaces: up to 4× UART, 6× I²C, 3× SPI, 2× CAN-FD, 3× SD/SDIO, 2× GbE (RGMII), PCIe Gen3 x1, USB 3.0/2.0 OTG, MIPI-CSI/DSI, I²S/SAI, PWM, ADC, etc. (actual available channels depend on the SoM and carrier board pinout)

  **Security**

  * PSA-aligned security architecture with NXP EdgeLock, Secure Boot, and Arm TrustZone
* ### Application Examples
  * Edge AI cameras
  * industrial and railway gateways
  * HMI panels
  * smart factory and building controllers
