  • The AM62A3 and AM62A7 (and their ..-Q1 automotive cousins) support one or two cameras (up to 5MP, streaming up to 4K30fps) at less than 2W for door cameras and smart retail applications. AM62A3 gets 1Top/s for AI processing.
  • The AM68A has up to 8Top/s and can work with eight cameras (up to 12 Mpixels, up to 4K60 frames/s) for machine vision
  • AM69A achieves 32Top/s for up to 12 cameras (up to 12MP, up to 2x 4K60fps) for peripheral AI, autonomous mobile robots and traffic monitoring

High-end AM69A (chart) receives computing power from two Arm Cortex-A72 quad-core clusters (eight cores in total), as well as two pairs of Cortex-R5F cores to synchronize critical processing to provide 32Top/s AI processing, four C7x DSPs, which are partners of four companies 'MMA ' deep learning accelerators.

General manager of TI Arm processors Artem Aginskyi announces AM6xA processors

“C7x/MMA cores are only available for the deep learning function in AM69A class processors. The C7x next-generation DSP core combines DSP and TI's EVE cores into a single high-performance core and adds floating-point vector computing capabilities, providing backward compatibility for legacy code," according to the company, which added, "Integrated security features protect data from modern attacks. CSI2.0 ports allow you to input many sensors.”

Edge AI Studio, an open-source public beta for AI model development and testing, should be available in the second quarter of 2023.

Starter kits are available for AM62A, AM68A and AM69A.

TI is exhibiting at its Embedded World booth - #215 in Hall 3A.
