Ezurio has announced the Carbon AM67 OSM-MF, a compact solder-down module based on Texas Instruments’ Sitara AM67x processor family. The module offers heterogeneous Arm processing, up to 8GB LPDDR4, eMMC storage, 4-TOPS AI acceleration, multi-display and camera support, dual Gigabit Ethernet, and optional Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.

The Carbon AM67 is based on TI’s Sitara AM67x processor family, which integrates up to four 64-bit Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 1.4GHz. Three Cortex-R5F cores operating at up to 800MHz are provided for application MCU, device-management, and run-time management tasks.

Graphics are handled by an IMG BXS-4-64 GPU rated for up to 50 GFLOPS, with OpenGL ES 3.2 and Vulkan 1.2 support. Two Deep Learning Accelerators provide up to 4 TOPS of combined AI performance, while the SoC also includes vision-processing and image-signal-processing hardware.

Measuring 45 × 30mm, the OSM-MF v1.2 module is offered with 4GB or 8GB of LPDDR4 memory and up to 128GB of eMMC storage, with 16GB listed as the default configuration.

Display support includes MIPI-DSI and LVDS, with support for up to three independent displays and resolutions reaching 3840 × 1080 at 60fps. Camera connectivity consists of four four-lane MIPI-CSI-2 interfaces supporting up to 16 virtual channels per interface, with lane rates up to 2.5Gbps.
