NVIDIA has just revealed the Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit, which is the successor to its Jetson Orin Nano kit from 2022. This new compact generative AI supercomputer can fit into the palm of your hand. Included in the developer kit is an 8GB Jetson Orin Nano system-on-module and a reference carrier board.
In terms of performance, the Jetson Orin Nano Super can reach 68 trillion operations per second (TOPS), a 70 percent increase from its predecessor. NVIDIA also claims a 1.7 times improvement in generative AI inference performance and a 50 percent bandwidth increase to 102GB per second. As for CPU frequency, it’s now 1.7GHz, a modest bump compared to its predecessor’s 1.5GHz.
NVIDIA also claims that it “delivers gains” for all popular generative AI models. These include large language models (LLMs), vision language models and vision transformers.
The Jetson Orin Nano Super’s software updates can also boost its predecessor, which is great news if you have the original Jets
