Authorised distributor Mouser Electronics is now stocking the new CrossLinkU-NX System-on-Module (SoM) board from Lattice Semiconductor.
The CrossLinkU-NX SoM Board is optimised for resource constrained vision, sensor, Edge, and AI applications.
This SoM board is based on a CrossLinkU NX FPGA that can receive camera input and send video output over a USB 3.0 interface via the USB Type-C connector.
The board features integrated USB functionality with hardened USB 2.0 and USB 3.2 Gen 1 PHY (physical layer), low power standby with Always-On, plus a complete set of reference designs to accelerate USB device implementation on the FPGA.
There is direct access to the CSI-2 camera input, a USB 3.1 device interface, and digital I/O with an Always-On (AON) feature.
This board also has two PMOD (Peripheral Module) connectors through a daughter board for off-board support.
The CrossLinkU-NX SoM board can be paired with a purpose-built carrier card for Raspberry Pi CM5 connectivity, supporting essential interfaces, such as Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.1 host, microSD storage, GPIOs, and comprehensive debugging.
It runs a highly optimised Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), supporting real-time person and gesture detection for up to five individuals, and features a programming circuit that supports the radiant programmer via a USB or FTDI interface, using JTAG or SPI.
The board delivers advanced functionality and a low power footprint for next-generation designs in embedded vision, sensor aggregation, sensor duplication, and AI inference at the Edge.
