NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module with 70 TOPS and 8GB LPDDR5

The Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module is the 8GB option in the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX series, with up to 70 TOPS (117 TOPS in NVIDIA's Super configuration), a 1024-core Ampere GPU and a 6-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU on a 260-pin SO-DIMM connector. It suits vision, robotics and inspection builds that run at 10 to 20 W.

  • Up to 70 TOPS, 117 TOPS Super: A 1024-core Ampere GPU with 32 Tensor Cores and one NVDLA give 70 sparse INT8 TOPS, or 117 TOPS with JetPack 6.2 Super Mode.
  • 6-Core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU: Six cores at up to 2 GHz run control loops, pre-processing and application services next to the GPU.
  • 8GB 128-Bit LPDDR5: 8 GB of LPDDR5 at 102.4 GB/s, with system storage on external NVMe over the carrier board PCIe lanes.
  • 10 W, 15 W and 20 W Modes: Standard modes span 10 to 20 W; JetPack 6.2 adds 40 W and MAXN SUPER modes where the thermal design allows.
  • 260-Pin SO-DIMM Connector: Shares the SO-DIMM connector with Orin NX 16GB and Orin Nano, and NVIDIA’s reference carrier accepts all of these modules.

Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module Overview

The Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module tends to be specified where a design needs Orin NX camera lanes and PCIe Gen4 but not the larger memory of the 16GB part, and buyers return to it for production, replacements and stock planning. It is the 8GB member of the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX series, on the 260-pin SO-DIMM connector shared with the 16GB module and the Orin Nano range.

A 1024-core Ampere GPU with 32 Tensor Cores and one NVDLA accelerator gives up to 70 sparse INT8 TOPS, alongside a 6-core Arm Cortex-A78AE CPU at up to 2 GHz and 8 GB of 128-bit LPDDR5 at 102.4 GB/s. Standard power modes are 10 W, 15 W and 20 W. With JetPack 6.2, NVIDIA’s Super Mode raises the module to 117 TOPS and adds 40 W and MAXN SUPER modes; NVIDIA asks that the thermal design be checked. The Jetson Orin NX 16GB Module adds two CPU cores, a second NVDLA and 16 GB of memory for 100 TOPS.

The Jetson Orin NX 8GB Module provides eight MIPI CSI-2 lanes (D-PHY 2.1), PCIe Gen4 as one x4 and three x1 links, 3x USB 3.2, 3x USB 2.0 and GbE, plus UART, SPI, I2C, I2S and one CAN interface. One shared HDMI 2.1, eDP 1.4 or DisplayPort 1.4a output reaches 8K30, and video engines encode 1x 4K60 and decode 1x 8K30 or 2x 4K60 H.265. There is no eMMC, so the OS runs from NVMe on the carrier.

NVIDIA lists the Jetson Orin NX 8GB as available through January 2032. For teams moving from the Jetson Xavier NX 8GB, which NVIDIA lists through July 2027, NVIDIA positions the Orin NX series at up to 7.5x the performance of Xavier NX, with the 260-pin SO-DIMM form factor carried over; carrier support is confirmed per carrier. Within Orin, the 16GB module is the step up and the Orin Nano 8GB the step down.
