Inforce 6601 Micro SoM

Purpose built for advanced embedded systems

Introducing the latest and long-lifecycle Inforce 6601 Micro SOM, powered by the next-generation ARM®v8 64-bit quad-core Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 820 applications processor, for advanced embedded designs. Upgrade legacy embedded designs to the cross-compatible Inforce 6601 Micro SOM. The Inforce 6601 Micro SOM maintains pin, connector, electrical, and form-factor compatibility with Inforce 6401™ and Inforce 6501™ Micro SOMs. There’s no need to redesign your existing Micro SOM compatible carrier board. Get a head start and accelerate your time-to-market.

Take advantage of cutting-edge mobile technologies such as immersive 3D graphics, power-efficient DSP, advanced camera ISPs, 4K HEVC video encode/decode, HDMI 2.0, and state-of-the-art connectivity. Empower exceptional and path-breaking embedded-applications. Build virtual reality, computer vision, video collaboration, and medical imaging devices.

Production-Ready For Volume Manufacturing
