The lightest Jetson Nano carrier board rated to -40 °C in our catalog is the PLink-AI Y-C7, at 40 g. plink-ai.complink-ai.com ↗“mechanical.weight_g=40 g”
It's a compact drone-oriented carrier board for the Jetson Nano (also TX2 NX, Xavier NX, Orin Nano, Orin NX), rated -40 to +85 °C, with HDMI, USB 3.0 Type-C, miniPCIe, M.2 E-key 2242, 1x MIPI CSI, CAN, and RS232, powered at 9–24 V DC. At 80 x 60 x 16.8 mm, it's the smallest of the -40 °C-rated Nano carrier boards I found. plink-ai.com +1plink-ai.com ↗“Compact drone-oriented carrier board for NVIDIA Jetson Nano/TX2 NX/Xavier NX/Orin Nano/Orin NX; HDMI, USB3.0 Type-C, miniPCIe, M.2 E 2242, 1x MIPI CSI, CAN, RS232; -40~85C; DC 9-24V”plink-ai.com ↗“80}”
Here's how all nine Nano-compatible carrier boards rated to at least -40 °C compare on weight:
| Product ID | Board | Weight | Temp Range | Power Input |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Y-C7 | PLink-AI Y-C7 | 40 g | -40 to +85 °C | 9–24 V |
| HZHY-AI311UAV | HZHY UAV (4G/LTE) | 50.25 g | -40 to +80 °C | 12–36 V |
| RTSO-6002E | Realtimes RTSO-6002E | 56 g | -40 to +80 °C | 9–20 V |
| HZHY-AI300 | HZHY AI300 | 62.35 g | -40 to +80 °C | 12–36 V |
| HZHY-AI301 | HZHY AI301 | 66 g | -40 to +80 °C | 12–36 V |
| HZHY-AI310UAV | HZHY UAV (91.5x55 mm) | 66 g | -40 to +80 °C | 12–36 V |
| Y-C6 | PLink-AI Y-C6 | 78 g | -40 to +85 °C | 9–24 V |
| Boson for FRAMOS (NGX007) | Connect Tech Boson | 80 g | -40 to +85 °C | 9–36 V |
| HZHY-AI311UAV-O | HZHY UAV (fan-cooled variant) | not listed in the catalog | -40 to +80 °C | 12–36 V |
All of these support Jetson Nano plus Xavier NX. If the Y-C7's single MIPI camera input or single Ethernet isn't enough for your sensor node, the HZHY-AI311UAV (50.25 g, 2x MIPI CSI, 4G/LTE) or RTSO-6002E (56 g, 2x MIPI CSI, 2x CAN) are the next-lightest options — though note the RTSO-6002E's -40 °C rating tops out at 80 °C rather than 85 °C. hzhytech.com +2hzhytech.com ↗“Jetson Nano (9), Jetson Xavier NX (9)”hzhytech.com ↗“thermal.min_operating_temp_c=-40 °C”realtimesai.com ↗“io.mipi_cameras=2, io.can_port_count=2”
