Development platform for the Open-Q 8550CS SOM, with a carrier board exposing cameras, displays, Ethernet and expansion interfaces.
- Open-Q 8550CS, 16 GB
- 8 MIPI CSI or GMSL
- 2x HDMI, DisplayPort
- 10G USXGMII
Overview
The Open-Q 8550CS SOM Development Kit is the starting point for evaluating and prototyping with the Open-Q 8550CS SOM. It pairs the SOM (16 GB LPDDR5x, 128 GB UFS) with an open-frame 200 x 170 mm carrier board that exposes all available I/O, including MIPI and GMSL cameras, HDMI, DisplayPort, Ethernet up to 10 Gbps, M.2, mikroBUS and CAN. The kit ships with a power supply, camera adapter board and HDMI adapter board, and runs Android 13 or Yocto Linux Kirkstone.
Built for
- Evaluating QCS8550 AI performance
- Prototyping multi-camera vision products
- Drone and robotics development
- Software bring-up before a custom carrier board
