Determining NVIDIA Jetson Orin COO and Part Codes

When looking for the NVIDIA Jetson Orin COO “Country-Of-Origin” information to select products for a project that are not to be sourced from a specific country and which products are best suited for long production life embedded systems. There is not a lot of information for this

For Embedded applications, what features do the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin Industrial modules bring to the project? The Jetson AGX Orin Industrial modules bring the following features to market:

With improved shock and vibration resistance and extended humidity resilience, EMAC endorses the Jetson AGX Orin Industrial modules for long-lasting embedded applications.

When looking for NVIDIA Jetson Orin COO information for projects that are compliant with the Buy American Act “BAA” or Trade Agreement Act “TAA”, the Country of origin “COO” on the products makes a difference. The key is knowing where the parts are built and what part number differences mean. NVIDIA Jetson Orin modules are a prime example of this, being built in Taiwan, China, or the USA.

With these specific SKU part numbers built in The USA-

Finally, we look at the product Lifecycle. NVIDIA has had some resistance due to their initial 3-5 year from release to EOL product lifecycle. With this in mind, they are planning longer cycles for newer products and extending the life of the industrial versions.

With NVIDIA Jetson Orin COO and the correct SKU for the SOM module, the problem comes up that the NVIDIA Jetson Evaluation boards, while designed to provide access to the IO from the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin and NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano/NX SOM modules. NVIDIA states these boards are not designed to go into production products. This sends most projects looking for a similar Carrier Board or trying to design a custom Carrier Board to meet the needs of your product.  From off-the-shelf carrier boards to fully custom product boards, EMAC, Inc. can help. EMAC’s engineering can design your carrier solution from the bare board up or review your design. Then, we build the prototypes, assist in testing and debugging, and build the production products all in our facilities in the USA (in Carbondale, IL)
