NXP Semiconductors N.V. NASDAQ: NXPI has unveiled the i.MX 95 series, the latest addition to its powerful i.MX 9 series of application processors. The i.MX 95 integrates high-performance computing, immersive 3D graphics with Arm Mali, a groundbreaking NXP machine learning accelerator, and ultra-fast data throughput. This robust feature set is built to support the growing demands of next-generation applications in automotive, industrial automation, networking, connectivity, and Human-Machine Interfaces HMI.
As edge intelligence continues to grow, so does the need for powerful processing, real-time machine learning, and high-speed connectivity. The i.MX 95 series meets these demands as the first in the lineup to feature NXPs eIQ Neutron Neural Processing Unit NPU and a next-generation Image Signal Processor ISP, empowering developers to create smarter, faster, and more efficient edge solutions.
Advantech TWSE: 2395, a global leading provider of edge computing and edge AI solutions, is proud to introduce two new compact Computer-on-Modules based on the NXP i.MX 95 platform: the AOM-5521 SMARC and AOM-2521 OSM.
Engineered for next-generation edge AI applications, these modules feature a multi-domain architecture with up to six Arm Cortex-A55 cores running at up to 2.0 GHz, along with a dedicated 2TOPS NPU optimized for Linux-based edge workloads. Compared to previous i.MX generations, they deliver up to 4x the machine learning performance, 2x the data throughput, and 15 greater power efficiency.
Looking ahead, Advantechs AOM-5521 and AOM-2521 are more than hardware upgrades-they serve as key building blocks for the next generation of edge intelligence. Whether used in industrial automation, medical devices, intelligent vision systems, or other IoT applications, these modules enable engineers to accelerate development, lower power budgets, and expand the possibilities of edge computing.
