Texas Instruments AM67A Platform

  • Architecture: Quad Cortex-A53 up to 1.4GHz plus two independent Cortex-R5F cores at 800MHz. The device includes two deep-learning accelerators up to 4 TOPS to support AI capabilities.
  • Graphics & Display: Imagination BXS-4-64 GPU with 2D/3D acceleration; triple display support over LVDS, DSI, or DPI up to 3840 × 1080 at 60fps. This device also has H.264/H.265 4K UHD video capability.
Note: KDAB's Perspective: The Total Cost of Ownership Equation

In architectural reviews we frequently see teams selecting a UI framework on developer familiarity alone (for example, web technologies or Flutter), only to discover late that the framework needs substantially more memory to run smoothly. Upgrading from a low-cost processor configuration to a higher-end configuration to absorb software overhead can destroy the margin of the product. Hardware and UI software must be selected symbiotically.
