3. Einrichtung
3.1. Körperliche Übergriffeview und Anschlüsse
The Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit features a variety of ports and headers for connectivity and expansion. Familiarize yourself with the layout:
- USB-Anschlüsse: Four USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports and one USB Type-C (UFP) port.
- Display-Ausgaben: One DisplayPort (DP) interface and one HDMI output port.
- Vernetzung: One Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) connector.
- Leistungsaufnahme: DC power jack (recommended 5V 4A) and Micro USB (5V 2A, for data or power, but not simultaneously with DC).
- Expansion Headers: 40-pin expansion header (UART, SPI, I2S, I2C, GPIO) and a 12-pin button header.
- Kameraschnittstellen: Two MIPI CSI-2 camera interfaces.
- Lagerung: M.2 Key M slots (x4 PCIe Gen3, x2 PCIe Gen3) for NVMe SSDs, and an M.2 Key E slot.
