Generals

QCS6490 and QCS5430 are chipsets that deliver premium features with advanced camera, AI, and compute for high performance at low-power. These chipsets are built for industrial and commercial IoT applications such as ruggedized handhelds and tablets, kiosks, industrial scanners, point of sale systems, human machine interface systems, robotics, drone and controllers, cameras, and edge AI boxes.

Description

SMARC Standard

The SMARC (“Smart Mobility ARChitecture”) is a versatile small form factor computer Module definition targeting applications that require low power, low costs, and high performance. The Modules will typically use ARM SOCs similar or the same as those used in many familiar devices such as tablet computers and smart phones. Alternative low power SOCs and CPUs, such as tablet oriented x86 devices and other RISC CPUs may be used as well.
The Module power envelope is typically under 6W although designs up to about 15W are possible.
