PHYTEC phyCORE-i.MX 8M Plus System on Module (SOM)
The PHYTEC 1561.0 (Part Number: PCL-070-0F5443I.A0) is a high-performance System on Module based on the NXP i.MX 8M Plus processor. This unit is specifically engineered for “Edge AI” applications, featuring a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that allows for complex machine learning tasks—such as facial recognition and object detection—directly on the device without needing a cloud connection.
With its robust industrial temperature rating and advanced image signal processing (ISP), it is a top-tier choice for Industry 4.0, smart city infrastructure, and professional multimedia systems.
Key Performance Features
NPU Hardware Acceleration: Integrated Neural Processing Unit providing up to 2.3 TOPS (Tera Operations Per Second) for high-speed AI inference.
Dual Image Signal Processor (ISP): Supports two MIPI CSI-2 camera interfaces, handling resolutions up to 12 MP for high-fidelity image processing.
Advanced Multimedia: Features a 3D GPU (OpenCL/GL/Vulkan support) and hardware video encoding/decoding for 1080p60 H.265/H.264 streams.
Industrial Reliability: Rated for Industrial Temperature (-40°C to +85°C), making it suitable for harsh manufacturing and outdoor environments.
TSN-Capable Ethernet: Includes dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, with one supporting Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) for precise industrial synchronization.
Direct Solder Connect (DSC): This 1561.0 variant is designed for direct soldering to a carrier board, ensuring maximum vibration resistance and a low profile.
