Description

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB module is a compact high-performance edge AI module for robotics, autonomous machines, industrial vision, smart cameras, AI gateways, and embedded inference products. Waveshare-24056 is the Jetson Orin NX 16GB eMMC listing, using NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture, 1024 CUDA cores, 32 Tensor Cores, 16GB LPDDR5 memory, 2x NVDLA v2, 1x PVA v2, and the Nano-size 260-pin SO-DIMM module form factor.

The Jetson Orin NX 16GB module delivers up to 100 TOPS of AI performance in the standard configuration, with a supported software upgrade path to Jetson Orin NX Super performance when the correct image, JetPack release, power mode, and thermal design are used. For teams building an edge AI module, the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB provides high AI throughput, advanced accelerator resources, modern camera input, PCIe Gen4 expansion, USB, display, networking, and NVIDIA JetPack SDK workflows in a compact module.

Because the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB is a system-on-module rather than a complete developer kit, it is suited for product teams building custom carrier boards or integrating with compatible Jetson Orin NX carrier hardware. The Jetson Orin NX 16GB module is a practical edge AI module choice when a project needs the higher-memory Orin NX option, stronger AI performance than the 8GB version, and a small 69.6mm x 45mm module footprint.
