Jetson Thor module that fits a 75 W power rail

Asked as: “I want Blackwell-class compute on a mobile robot but the power rail tops out around 75 W. Which Jetson Thor module fits that budget?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

The Jetson T4000 fits. It's the only Jetson Thor production module whose whole power range stays under your 75 W rail. It's a Blackwell module rated at 40–70 W. developer...developer.nvidia.com ↗“Mid-tier Blackwell Thor SoM; up to 1200 FP4 TFLOPS, 64GB memory, 40-70W”

What this means for your design:

  • T4000: Even at its 70 W maximum, it leaves about 5 W of headroom on a 75 W rail.
  • T5000: Its power range also starts at 40 W, so you might be able to cap it below 75 W. I couldn't find what it delivers at that kind of limit, though, so don't expect its rated 2070 FP4 TFLOPS / 1035 TOPS at reduced power.
  • IGX T5000: This module has the same 40–130 W envelope as the T5000, so the same limit applies. nvidia.comnvidia.com ↗“power.power_envelope=40-130 W”
  • Carrier and peripherals: These are module figures only. The carrier board, sensors and other parts will draw their own power from the same 75 W rail, so check the whole system's draw.
