Inelco Hunter is excited to announce the launch of a powerful, ultra-small System-on-Module (SOM) designed for applications demanding compactness and energy efficiency.

This innovative SOM leverages the SMARC (Smart Mobility ARChitecture) standard, a widely recognised industry specification for compact, low-power embedded computing applications. Ideal for mobile devices, fleet management, factory automation, medical equipment, portable devices, and industrial IoT applications.

The new module integrates core SOM functions, including SDRAM and Flash memory, within a standardised footprint of 82 x 50mm. At its core is the robust RK3568 Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU, delivering exceptional performance.

The integrated graphics GPU is a Mali-G52-2EE, supporting OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0/3.2, OpenCL 2.0, and Vulkan 1.1, whilst the NPU RKNN Accelerator provides remarkable processing power, up to 1 TOPS. Memory configuration includes 2GB LPDDR4 SDRAM on-board and 16GB eMMC Flash (as the default boot device), with options for 32GB or 64GB.

Supporting up to three displays, the module offers a range of I/O options, including two LVDS or MIPI-DSI ports, one HDMI 2.0 port, and a Display Port. USB connectivity is robust, featuring a USB 3.0 OTG and six USB host ports (five USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0). Additional I/O support is available, with detailed specifications accessible online.

This module supports industry-standard operating systems, including Linux (Buildroot, Yocto, Debian) and Android OS. Inelco Hunter’s comprehensive engineering and software support ensures rapid implementation, accelerating the customer’s time-to-market. This added-value support is a cornerstone of Inelco Hunter’s philosophy, distinguishing them from other "stock and ship” distributors over the past 30 years.
