UK Qualcomm QCS6490
QCS6490 SBCs and Motherboards for Edge AI
A Qualcomm QCS6490 board runs a Dragonwing processor with an eight-core Kryo 670 CPU, Adreno 643 graphics and a 12 TOPS Hexagon AI engine on one 6 nm chip, so vision models run locally at low power without a separate accelerator. The range covers SBCs and industrial motherboards built around the QCS6490.
Options include up to five concurrent cameras, 4K video, Wi-Fi 6E, Gigabit Ethernet and M.2 expansion, running Qualcomm Linux, Ubuntu, Android or Windows 11 IoT Enterprise, suited to HMIs, smart cameras, vision gateways, retail devices and medical equipment. The Kryo 670 CPU pairs Arm Cortex-A78 performance cores with Cortex-A55 efficiency cores.
