DesignCore® Platforms

Jetson SerDes Sensor Interface Card
Supports the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin and AGX Xavier Developer Kits
4x FPD-Link III and 2x GMSL2 input channels
The DesignCore® Jetson SerDes Sensor Interface card is an add-on for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin™ and AGX Xavier™ Developer Kits. The card supports both Texas Instruments FPD-Link™ III and Maxim Integrated GMSL2 deserializers. It allows for multiple tethered sensors to be interfaced to the powerful NVIDIA Jetson embedded platform for autonomous applications, industrial applications, and more. The card also contains a direct MIPI CSI-2 connection to interface sensors directly to the Jetson Developer Kit. Supported camera modules, 3D ToF, and mmWave radar modules are available from D3 Engineering.

Jetson Xavier NX 12-Camera Carrier Board
Supports the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX Module*
Twelve (12) FPD-Link III input channels
This carrier board allows users to quickly interface and develop with the Jetson Xavier™ NX Module or Jetson Xavier™ TX2 NX Module by combining up to 12 streams of input data via the FPD-Link III interface. Sensor data is delivered via a serial link and is deserialized into MIPI CSI-2 data for consumption on the module. This allows the sensors to be placed up to 15 meters away from the processing unit. An on-board FPGA provides hardware-level synchronization capability. Supported camera modules, 3D ToF, and mmWave radar modules are available from D3 Engineering.
*The board is compatible with the TX2 NX or Nano modules, but software may not be supported yet.

Jetson AGX Xavier FPD-Link III Interface Card
For NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit
Sixteen (16) FPD-Link III input channels
This interface card delivers maximum inputs for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier™ Developer Kit, combining up to 16 streams of input data via the FPD-Link III interface. Sensor data is delivered via a serial link and is deserialized into MIPI CSI-2 data for consumption on the Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit. This allows the sensors to be placed up to 15 meters away from the processing unit. GPIO and I2C control are available for configuration and reset. An on-board FPGA provides hardware-level synchronization capability. Supported camera modules, 3D ToF, and mmWave radar modules are available from D3 Engineering.
