Direct Insight has launched a new TRITON-TX family SoM, the TRITON-TXMP2, based on STM32MP255, STMicro's powerful new ARMv8 dual-core processor.
Commented David Pashley, CEO of Direct Insight: "The TRITON-TXMP2 offers exceptional graphics, video and NPU performance in a full -40C to +85C temperature-range SoM, at a reasonable price and is aimed at a broad range of industrial HMI solutions plus streaming video capture and display devices."
Manufactured by the company's long-standing partner, Ka-Ro Electronics, the device features a powerful dual-core ARM Cortex-A35 processor running up to 1500MHz. The tiny 68mm x 26mm SODIMM SoM has 1GB LPDDR4, 4GB eMMC Flash, and a 24-bit RGB display output powered by a 3D GPU. This processor's video support is a notable strength with 1080P60 video decode and encode and dual MIPI-DSI camera inputs. Comprehensive connectivity is completed with dual Ethernet, 3x FlexCAN, SD/eMMC, dual USB 2.0, PCIe and USB 3.0, and up to 9x UARTs, 8x I2C ports and 8x SPI. A Vivante NPU provides 1.3TOPS of ML/AI power, and a third MCU processor core is based on an ARM Cortex-M33.
The device is supplied with a Yocto-packaged Linux BSP with full sources and an installable VM for development. In common with the rest of the pin-compatible TRITON-TX family, it only needs a single 3.3V to 5.5V supply and supplies a 300mA 3.3V power output for use on the baseboard.
