Diamond Systems FLOYD : FLD-XNX-FS-01 NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX Vision Carrier Board with Dual PoE+ GbE and CAN

Multi-camera AI builds that need more than the Jetson Nano can offer usually move to the Xavier NX. The FLD-XNX-FS-01 fits the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX module to the full-feature Diamond Systems FLOYD vision carrier board, installed, programmed and fitted with a fan sink.

The Xavier NX combines a 6-core NVIDIA Carmel Arm v8.2 CPU with a 384-core Volta GPU, 48 Tensor Cores and two deep learning accelerators, rated at 21 TOPS (INT8) at 15 W. That gives room to run detection or classification on several camera streams at once. Three 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 connectors take local cameras, and both Gigabit Ethernet ports can power PoE+ IP cameras from a 50-57 V supply on the PoE input. For lighter workloads, the FLD-NAO-FS-01 fits the Jetson Nano to the same carrier.

With the Xavier NX installed, the FLD-XNX-FS-01 also gains one CAN 2.0B port, non-isolated as standard, with an isolated transceiver available to special order. The rest of the BB01 I/O covers two HDMI 2.0 outputs, one USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, two RS-232/422/485 serial ports and eight 3.3 V GPIO lines. A full-size Mini PCIe socket takes PCIe or USB cards, and an M.2 2280 socket runs NVMe at PCIe x1 alongside the microSD slot.

The FLD-XNX-FS-01 takes 12-24 V DC and Diamond Systems rates it from -25 to +80 °C. The board is supported by a Linux BSP based on NVIDIA JetPack. Where PoE and CAN are not needed and NVMe speed matters more, the FLD-XNX-FS-02 puts the same module on the BB02 carrier with a PCIe x4 link to the M.2 socket.
