You can use the Dev Board to prototype your embedded system and then scale to production using the on-board Coral System-on-Module (SoM) combined with your custom PCB hardware. The SoM provides a fully-integrated system, including NXP s iMX8M system-on-chip (SoC), eMMC memory, LPDDR4 RAM, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, but its unique power comes from Google s Edge TPU coprocessor. The Edge TPU is a small ASIC designed by Google that provides high performance ML inferencing with a low power cost. For example, it can execute state-of-the-art mobile vision models such as MobileNet v2 at almost 400 FPS, in a power efficient manner. The baseboard provides all the peripheral connections you need to prototype a project, including USB 2.0/3.0 ports, DSI display interface, CSI-2 camera interface, Ethernet port, speaker terminals, and a 40-pin I/O header. Key benefits of the Dev Board: High-speed and low-power ML inferencing (4 TOPS 2W) A complete Linux system (running Mendel, a Debian derivative) Prototyping and evaluation board for the small Coral SoM (40 x 48mm) Version 1.6 (July 2020) Copyright 2020 Google LLC.
