DSBOARD-THRMAX-T4000 Overview
Not every Thor project needs 128 GB of memory, and the T4000 is the 64 GB Jetson Thor module for those builds. The DSBOARD-THRMAX-T4000 fits the NVIDIA Jetson T4000 module to the Forecr DSBOARD-THRMAX carrier board.
The T4000 carries 64 GB of LPDDR5X for perception and planning models on robots and machines. Forecr’s board manual lists three 25GbE links from the QSFP28 cage with the T4000, and lists the four CAN FD ports for T5000 builds only, so CAN-dependent designs should use the DSBOARD-THRMAX-T5000. The DSBOARD-THRMAX-T4000 keeps the RS-232/422/485 port and digital I/O. Cameras connect through a 120-pin Samtec camera expansion connector that carries 6x 2-lane or 4x 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 to a camera add-on card. GMSL2 is not on the carrier: Forecr’s eight-channel GMSL2 add-on card fits that connector, alongside MIPI CSI-2 and analog video cards.
On the DSBOARD-THRMAX-T4000, display runs over two HDMI 2.1 ports and two DisplayPort 1.4 outputs on micro-coax, and two screw-lock USB 3.2 Type-C ports at 10 Gbps include the recovery port. A 14-pin terminal carries an RS-232/422/485 port, two digital inputs (11-60 V) and three low-side digital outputs (up to 60 V). Storage uses an M.2 Key-M 2280 (PCIe Gen4 x4) and an M.2 Key-M 2242 (PCIe Gen4 x2), with M.2 Key-B and nano-SIM for LTE or 5G and M.2 Key-E for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. A Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port sits beside the QSFP28 cage for control networks.
The 140 x 125 mm board takes 18-36 V DC on a locking connector, is rated from -40 to +85 °C, and adds a TPM 2.0 chip, a 6-axis IMU, a temperature sensor and a 12 V fan connector. Forecr lists Ubuntu 24.04 with JetPack 7.x. The DSBOARD-THRMAX-T4000 suits robotics and autonomous systems where 64 GB covers the models.
