Overview
The MitySOM-AM62P family of system-on-modules features the Texas Instruments Sitara AM62Px Processor. The module includes (optional) eMMC FLASH, (optional) Octal or Quad SPI NOR FLASH, and LPDDR4 RAM memory subsystems. A MitySOM-AM62P provides a complete and flexible CPU infrastructure for highly integrated embedded systems.
The onboard AM62Px processor provides up to a Quad Core Cortex-A53 microprocessor unit (MPU) at up to 1.4GHz. This MPU can run a rich set of real-time operating systems containing software applications programming interfaces (APIs) expected by modern system designers. The ARM architecture supports several operating systems, including Linux.
In addition to the Cortex-A53, the AM62Px family also offers a Single Core Arm Cortex-R5F MCU at up to 800 MHz with 256KB SRAM, and a 3D graphics processing unit (GPU) supporting OpenGL ES 3.2 at 50 GFLOPS. The AM62Px also supports H264/H265 encode & decode, and can support three simultaneous displays.
