Description
Overview
The NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB packs remarkable AI compute into a compact SO-DIMM form factor. Delivering 157 TOPS of AI performance with the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, it bridges the gap between the entry-level Orin Nano and the high-end AGX Orin, making it ideal for deployments where space is limited but performance requirements are high.
With 16GB of LPDDR5 memory and an 8-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU, the Orin NX 16GB supports complex AI inference pipelines, multi-stream video analytics, and real-time sensor processing — all within a module smaller than a credit card.
