2 AM6xA Scalable Portfolio and the AM62A

This section introduces the AM62A, a quad-core Arm® Cortex® A53 microprocessor for embedded vision applications. This device occupies the lower range of the AM6xA ("A" standing for Analytics) portfolio, which features several other embedded vision capable devices, all of which includes deep learning acceleration, ISP, and video encode/decode capabilities. The scalable AM6xA portfolio ensures that there is a device to fit the application's desired point on the power vs. performance curve.

The AM62A is designed for power and cost-sensitive applications requiring one-to-two cameras, consuming less than 2 Watts under full load at room temperature and less than 5 Watts at 125°C.

Like other processors in TI's portfolio, variants of the AM62A are available for applications that do not require all possible device features and benefit from more cost optimization.
