Description

NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB System-on-Module (SOM)

Overview & Value Proposition

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB System-on-Module (SOM) is an entry-to-mid-tier embedded AI compute engine designed to deliver high-density computer vision, real-time sensor processing, and edge AI inferencing. Powered by the NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture and a 6-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU, it provides up to 70 INT8 TOPS (and up to 117 TOPS in software-optimized Super Mode) of AI compute within a compact 69.6mm x 45mm 260-pin SODIMM form factor. Operating across an energy-efficient 10W to 20W power envelope, it offers a cost-effective, high-performance compute platform for autonomous mobile robotics, smart vision systems, and edge AI gateways.

 

Key Features & Business Benefits

  • Ampere Architecture GPU with 70+ TOPS: Features a 1024-core NVIDIA Ampere GPU with 32 3rd-Gen Tensor Cores delivering up to 70 INT8 TOPS (up to 117 TOPS in Super Mode) for low-latency deep learning inference.

  • 6-Core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU: Driven by a 64-bit 6-core Arm CPU cluster with 1.5MB L2 and 4MB L3 cache to execute application logic, ROS 2 nodes, and control algorithms.

  • 8GB Unified LPDDR5 Memory: Features a 128-bit memory subsystem providing 102.4 GB/s bandwidth across a shared unified pool, eliminating CPU-to-GPU memory transfer bottlenecks during multi-stream video processing.

  • Hardware Deep Learning Acceleration: Built-in Deep Learning Accelerator (NVDLA v2.0) engine offloads neural network execution from the primary GPU to optimize system-wide energy efficiency.

  • Compact 260-Pin SODIMM Form Factor: Standardized 69.6mm x 45mm module dimensions allow seamless integration into custom carrier boards and space-constrained chassis designs.

  • Configurable Power Envelope (10W–20W): Software-configurable operational power profiles (10W, 15W, and 20W TDP) enable deployment in fanless, battery-operated, or thermally constrained enclosures.

  • Multi-Camera & Peripheral Connectivity: Native support for up to 4 direct MIPI CSI-2 camera streams (8-lane), PCIe Gen 4 interconnects, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Gigabit Ethernet, and CAN bus controllers.

  • Enterprise Software & NVIDIA JetPack SDK: Fully compatible with NVIDIA JetPack SDK, Isaac robotics framework, Metropolis vision platform, and CUDA-X acceleration libraries.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB SOM include a carrier board or heat sink?
A: No. The Jetson Orin NX 8GB is a bare System-on-Module (SOM) designed for production integration. It requires a compatible 260-pin carrier board, a thermal solution (heatsink/heat spreader), and external NVMe SSD storage to operate.

Q: How does the Jetson Orin NX 8GB differ from the Jetson Orin NX 16GB model?
A: The Orin NX 8GB includes 8GB LPDDR5 memory, a 6-core CPU, 1x NVDLA engine, and up to 70–117 TOPS AI performance at 10W–20W. The 16GB variant features 16GB LPDDR5, an 8-core CPU, 2x NVDLA engines, and up to 100–157 TOPS AI compute at 10W–25W.

Q: Does the Jetson Orin NX 8GB SOM contain onboard eMMC storage?
A: No. The Jetson Orin NX series does not feature onboard eMMC flash storage. Operating system boot and storage expansion are managed via NVMe SSDs connected through PCIe Gen 4 lanes on the host carrier board.

Q: Is the Orin NX 8GB SOM pin-compatible with Jetson Orin Nano modules?
A: Yes. The Jetson Orin NX 8GB shares the identical 260-pin SODIMM connector layout and form factor as Jetson Orin Nano modules, enabling drop-in performance scaling on a shared carrier board architecture.

Q: Can I request a formal quotation for procurement?
A: Yes, we issue formal quotation documents with complete pricing, tax breakdowns, and payment terms for corporate or institutional procurement processes.

Q: Do you provide GST invoices?
A: Yes, we provide valid GST invoices for all orders. You can enter your GSTIN during checkout or provide it with your order details to claim input tax credit.

Q: Do you deliver across India?
A: Yes, we deliver to pincodes across all states and union territories in India through our logistics partners.
