NVIDIA® Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano


- NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX
- NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano
Overview
NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX and Orin Nano pack advanced AI into a compact 69.6 mm by 45 mm SODIMM footprint that drops into the same carrier designs. You can start with Orin Nano for cost and power efficiency, then step up to Orin NX for heavier models and higher throughput without changing your mechanical envelope.
Why These Modules?
- Shared SODIMM form factor for easy scaling across projects
- Modern AI performance in a small footprint
- Rich camera and I/O support through carrier boards
- Flexible power profiles for battery or fanless designs
- Mature ecosystem, tools, and documentation
Key Features
- Form factor: 69.6 mm x 45 mm SODIMM for both series
- Carrier compatibility: Orin NX and Orin Nano share the same carriers
- Vision ready: Multi-camera MIPI CSI-2 support via carrier boards
- I/O: PCIe Gen 3, USB 3.x, and NVMe support through carrier designs

Orin NX vs Orin Nano

Orin NX
Performance for advanced edge AI
- Higher AI throughput for multi-camera perception and sensor fusion
- 8-core CPU, 8 GB or 16 GB memory options
- Best for AMRs, inspection systems, and on-device generative workloads
- Pick Orin Nano when you need compact AI with tight power and cost targets and still want multi-camera support

Orin Nano
Efficient AI for compact builds
- Strong AI per watt for cost and power-sensitive designs
- 6-core CPU, 4 GB or 8 GB memory options
- Best for smart cameras, smaller robots, kiosks, and embedded vision
- Pick Orin NX when your pipeline needs more parallel inference, higher frame rates, or heavier models
