MSC SM2S-QCS5430

Qualcomm® QCS5430
Arm® Cortex®-A78/A55

The MSC SM2S-QCS5430 SMARC 2.1.1 module family is powered by the Qualcomm® QCS5430 processor, a 6nm processor with high performance and best in class power to performance ratio. QCS5430 integrates Qualcomm® Kryo™ 670 CPU which contains up to six cores: two Arm® Cortex®-A78 cores, four Arm® Cortex®-A55 cores, Qualcomm® Adreno™ 642L GPU, Qualcomm® Adreno™ 633 VPU and the latest re-engineered Qualcomm® Hexagon™ processor. The GPU supports video encode/ decode at up to 4K30/4K30 and many different display connictities (LVDS, MIPI-DSI, eDP/DP). It delivers powerful edge AI for high-performance with upto 3.5 TOPS at low power and massive camera support with 4 MIPI-CSI inputs.

This solution delivers powerful performance and is purpose-built for industrial and commercial IoT applications such as ruggedized handhelds and tablets, kiosks, industrial scanners, dash cameras, point-of-sale systems and human machine interface systems.

The module is compliant with the latest SMARC 2.1.1 standard, allowing easy integration with SMARC baseboards. For evaluation and design-in of the SM2S-QCS5430 module, Avnet Embedded provides a development platform and a starter kit. Support for Linux is available (Android support available on request).
