ASTRIAL - Real Time Edge Computing CM4 Board for Industrial Application 3.4.4.3 HDMI 2.0 Astrial supports an HDMI 2.0 interface capable of handling 4K images. The HDMI output can be managed up to 4Kp30, however if only the HDMI0 interface is used, images up to 4Kp60 are possible.
Page 28: I2C (Sda0 Scl0)
ASTRIAL - Real Time Edge Computing CM4 Board for Industrial Application 3.4.4.6 I2C (SDA0 SCL0) The internal I2C bus is normally assigned to CSI1 and DSI1, as these devices are controlled by the firmware. It can be used as a general I2C bus if the CSI1 and DSI1 interfaces are not used or are controlled by the firmware. For example, libcamera runs on ARM and does not use firmware, so in this case you can use CSI1 and this I2C bus.

Page 30: Mechanical And Electrical Specifications
ASTRIAL - Real Time Edge Computing CM4 Board for Industrial Application 3.5 Mechanical and electrical specifications 3.5.1 Mechanical ASTRIAL is a compact module measuring 40 × 55 × 4.7 mm. Its actual height is 4.7 mm, but once connected the overall height will be either 5.078 mm or 6.578 mm depending on the stacking height.
Page 31: Thermal Protection
ASTRIAL - Real Time Edge Computing CM4 Board for Industrial Application 3.5.2 Thermal protection Astrial in CM4 format dissipates less power than the CM4 Model B. Astrial also contains less metal in the PCB and fewer connectors, which means it has less passive heat dissipation than the CM4 Model B. Although it consumes less power, it may heat up more than the CM4 Model B.
