Things to keep in mind:
- All of these figures are INT8 (sparse) TOPS, since these are Orin products. For the RMC-604, the manufacturer gives only a default-mode figure, with no Super-mode figure.
- The rated operating range is 0–60 °C for the ECM001 to ECM004, and -25 to 50 °C for the RMC-604. All of these ranges require airflow. For the RMC-604, the range also depends on which peripherals are installed. lambortech... +1lambortech.com ↗“thermal.max_operating_temp_c=60 °C, thermal.min_operating_temp_c=0 °C, thermal.operating_temp_condition=Requires airflow”lambortech.com ↗“thermal.max_operating_temp_c=50 °C, thermal.min_operating_temp_c=-25 °C, thermal.operating_temp_condition=Requires airflow, Depends on installed peripherals”
Lambortech also makes the ECM400-Thor and ECM410-Thor, but these are robotics platforms in the Robot Controllers category, not UAV computers. lambortech... +1lambortech.com ↗“Lambortech ECM400-Thor AI Edge Platform (Jetson Thor T5000 / T4000) · Robot Controllers”lambortech.com ↗“Lambortech ECM410-Thor Functional Safety AI Platform (IGX Thor T5000) · Robot Controllers”
