Comment on microSD Express memory cards to support up to 2GB/s data transfers


MICROSD EXPRESS MEMORY CARDS TO SUPPORT UP TO 2GB/S DATA TRANSFERS



SD Association (SDA) has announced the new SD 9.1 specification that doubles the
speed of microSD Express memory card speed up to 2GB/s, defines four new SD
Express Speed Classes to ensure guaranteed minimum sequential performance
levels, and adds support for multi-stream access and related power and thermal
management to assure the guaranteed performance. We first covered the microSD
Express cards in 2019 as they were added to the SD 7.0 specification with
promises of SSD performance through a PCIe 3.0 interface delivering up to
985MB/s. Over four years have passed since then, and I have yet to write about
devices supporting the new standard, but the SD Association is not giving up
with the introduction of the SD 9.1 specification that doubles the speed of the
microSD Express cards, and full-size SD Express card can even reach close to
4GB/s. More specifically, the maximum speed achievable on microSD Express […]

Comments on Generative AI on NVIDIA Jetson Orin, Jetpack 6 SDK to support
multiple OSes


GENERATIVE AI ON NVIDIA JETSON ORIN, JETPACK 6 SDK TO SUPPORT MULTIPLE OSES



NVIDIA has had several announcements at ROSCon 2023 related to robotics &
embedded with highlights including generative AI on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin
module and the Jetpack 6 SDK will be released next month (November 2023) with
supports for Ubuntu as usual, but also other operating systems and platforms
such as Debian, Yocto, Wind River, Redhawk RTOS, and Balena. Generative AI on
NVIDIA Jetson Orin There’s been a lot of hype in the last year about generative
AI thanks to services such as ChatGPT, Google Bard, or Microsoft Bing Chat. But
those rely on closed-source software that runs on powerful servers in the cloud.
As we noted in our article about the “AI in a box” offline LLM solution there
are some open-source projects such as Whisper speech-to-text model and Llama2
language models that could be run on embedded hardware at the edge, but as noted
by some readers platforms […]

Comments on SiFive announces Intelligence X390 NPU, Performance P870 RISC-V core


SIFIVE ANNOUNCES INTELLIGENCE X390 NPU, PERFORMANCE P870 RISC-V CORE



SiFive has announced two new high-performance IP blocks with the Intelligence
X390 NPU and the Performance P870 RISC-V core that should find their way into
SoC designed for Generative AI and ML applications. We had already covered the
Performance P870 and its automotive sibling – the P870-A – from information in
an earlier presentation, but the SiFive Intelligence X390 NPU is new to me and
appears to be aimed at generative AI in data centers, although we will very soon
be seeing companies implement generative AI at the edge in pretty powerful
embedded devices. SiFive Performance P870 highlights: Full support for the RVA23
RISC-V profile specification and Vector 1.0 and Vector Crypto Six-wide,
out-of-order 64-bit core Up to a 32-core cluster >12 SpecINT2k6/GHz, or a 50%
peak single thread performance upgrade over the previous generation SiFive
Performance P670 SiFive Features 2x 128b VLEN RVV Vector crypto and hypervisor
extensions IOMMU […]

Comments on Rugged fanless Alder Lake-N mini PC features 6x RS232/422/485 ports,
dual 2.5GbE, dual HDMI


RUGGED FANLESS ALDER LAKE-N MINI PC FEATURES 6X RS232/422/485 PORTS, DUAL
2.5GBE, DUAL HDMI



We’ve covered many Alder Lake-N mini PCs, but the AAEON BOXER-6617-ADN is a
little different as a robust, fanless industrial embedded PC with up to six
RS232/RS422/RS485 serial ports, two 2.5GbE ports, and two HDMI video outputs.
Powered by up to an Intel Core i3-N305, the latest mini PC from AAEON works in a
-20°C to 70°C temperature range and supports 9V to 36V DC input with circuit
protection suitable for industrial environments like the previously announced
BOXER-6406-ADN fanless embedded computer from the company, but with a slightly
different feature set. BOXER-6617-ADN specifications: Alder Lake-N SoC (one or
the other) Intel Atom x7211E dual-core processor up to 3.2 GHz with 6MB cache,

Comments on Raspberry Pi Zero W-based Weather Orbs shows weather data on three
round displays (Crowdfunding)


RASPBERRY PI ZERO W-BASED WEATHER ORBS SHOWS WEATHER DATA ON THREE ROUND
DISPLAYS (CROWDFUNDING)



Peter Holderith’s Weather Orbs is a Raspberry Pi Zero W-powered desktop weather
station that displays animated weather data from NOAA and NWS on three small
round displays connected over SPI. Internally it’s an add-on board that connects
to the 40-pin GPIO header of the Raspberry Pi Zero W and with three additional
headers to connect the smartwatch round displays. The PCB also comes with 16 RGB
LEDs to create some nice lighting effects. The Raspberry Pi Zero W and
accompanying electronics are housed in a custom “high-quality” 3D printed
enclosure with a cover made of brushed stainless steel, and thick glass
magnifiers complete the design for a retro style. The default firmware fetches
weather data, such as live satellite images from NOAA or radar from NWS, and
displays those on the three round displays. It also starts a Wi-Fi hotspot
called “weatherorbs” to which the user can connect and then […]

Comment on Tiny low-power Hyperlux LP camera sensors can extend battery life by
up to 40%


TINY LOW-POWER HYPERLUX LP CAMERA SENSORS CAN EXTEND BATTERY LIFE BY UP TO 40%



onsemi has introduced the Hyperlux LP image sensor family for battery-powered
industrial and commercial cameras with resolutions from 5MP to 20MP and a low
power consumption that can extend battery life by up to 40% based on the
company’s internal testing. Three models of the 1.4 µm pixel sensors will
initially be offered: the 5MP AR0544, the 8MP AR0830, and the 20MP AR2020. Those
camera sensors should eventually be found in a wide range of products such as
smart doorbells, security cameras, AR/VR/XR headsets, devices leveraging machine
vision, and video conferencing.   The AR2020 is a 1/1.8inch Back-Side
Illuminated (BSI) Stacked CMOS digital image sensor with a 5120 x 3840 active
pixel array with a rolling shutter readout and capable of capturing images in
either linear or enhanced Dynamic Range (eDR) modes. Its smaller siblings
support the same features, but the AR0830 is a 1/2.9-inch image sensor with a
3840 […]
