Summary of TORADEX ANNOUNCES AVAILABILITY OF DAHLIA CARRIER BOARD FOR VERDIN SOMS
Toradex has launched Dahlia, a compact 120mm x 120mm carrier board designed for the Verdin System on Modules (SoMs). This open-source platform simplifies development by offering accessible interfaces like Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, MIPI DSI, and MIPI CSI-2 through a single USB-C connector. It supports power delivery via USB-C PD and BC, along with UART and JTAG connectivity. The fully open design provides Altium files and manufacturing data, serving as an ideal foundation for custom projects while leveraging Toradex's extensive software ecosystem including Torizon and Yocto Project support.
Parts used in the Dahlia Carrier Board:
- Verdin System on Modules (SoMs)
- Dahlia Carrier Board
- USB-C Connector
- Gigabit Ethernet Interface
- PCI Express Interface
- MIPI DSI Interface
- MIPI CSI-2 Interface
- CAN Interface
- UART Interface
- JTAG Interface
Toradex, a leader in embedded computing, announces the release and availability of Dahlia, the latest addition to its carrier board offerings for the Verdin family of System on Modules (SoMs).
Dahlia provides a simple and convenient development platform for the Verdin SoMs. The board provides easy access to the most common interfaces in a compact 120mm x 120mm form factor. As with all Toradex carrier boards, the design is fully open and is an ideal starting point for your own customized Verdin carrier board.
Highlights:
- Simple power via USB-C (PD and BC)
- UART and JTAG interfaces conveniently accessible via a single USB-C connector
- Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, MIPI DSI, MIPI CSI-2, CAN, etc.
- Free and open design – allowing you to access the complete Altium design and manufacturing data
Verdin modules provide a modern, future-proof set of interfaces focusing on ease-of-use and robustness. The Verdin line expands on the already successful Colibri and Apalis SoM families and comes with the same extensive software, documentation, ecosystem and support. This includes Torizon – the easy-to-use industrial Linux platform – and Toradex BSP Layers and Reference Images for Yocto Project.
