Latronics has just unveiled two new System-in-Packages (SiP) with the entry-level Open-Q 2290CS SIP based on Qualcomm QCS2290 quad-core Cortex-A53 processor designed for industrial IoT applications and safety vehicle equipment control, and the pin-compatible, mid-range Open-Q 4290CS SIP based on Qualcomm QCS4290 octa-core Kryo 260 CPU for applications requiring artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities.

The Open-Q 2290CS module comes with 2GB LPDDR4, 16GB eMMC flash, WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, while the Open-Q 4290CS module is equipped with up to 6GB LPDDR4, up to 256GB eMMC flash., and Wi-Fi 5 with some Wi-Fi 6 features (TWT & 8SS), and Bluetooth 5.1. Lantronix also offers the Open-Q AL2 development kit supporting either both SIP modules for evaluation and rapid prototyping.

The module runs Android 12 Go, and target markets include industrial HMI IoT applications, POS/kiosks, vending machines, exercise equipment displays, camera applications, and entry-level robotics notably in warehouses and for logistics operations.

The Qualcomm QCS4290 systemin-package supports Android 12 Go, as well as Android 12. It’s expected to be found in Smart surveillance cameras, dash cameras, body cameras, fleet management systems with video analytics, warehouse and logistic robots, rugged handheld computers, interactive display boards, and drones.

The company also provides a development kit with a 96boards-compliant carrier board that takes either system-in-package (since they are pin-to-pin compatible) and a mezzanine board with camera and display connectors, as well as some sensors and sensor interfaces.

Android 12 or/and Android 12 OS are supported and the development kit ships with a demo BSP.

Both modules and the development kit appear to be available now and for sale at an undisclosed price. More information may be found on the product pages for Open-Q modules and the development kit. A few additional details may also be found in the press release.
