Theoretical absolute maximum total draw of all functionality on the Sprocket Carrier Board (not including TX2/TX2i/TX1 Module) Below are measurements taken with the Sprocket Carrier running in various configurations. Some values will change depending on what operation or software is installed. Measurements also include the Jetson™...
Connect Tech also offers a custom BSP to add in additional peripheral support on CTI’s Jetson Carrier Boards. In the case of the Sprocket Carrier Board the CTI-L4T will expose software control of most of the carrier interfaces including MIPI CSI-2, USB and more.
However, it is important to note that the NVIDIA Jetson TX2 and TX1 Modules have its own properties separate to that of the Sprocket Carrier Board. The NVIDIA Jetson TX2i matches the Sprocket Operating Temperature Range of -40°C to +85°C.
