15:09 | topi` | what's the "cheapest" configuration for HB Edge if the customer use case requires 2GB RAM? |
15:09 | topi` | although we're not sure if the cost of hardware is critical to the project here... |
15:14 | jnettlet | topi`, ask the sales email address. You can get any som with up to 2GB of RAM. |
15:15 | jnettlet | I would say the bigger question would be time sensitivity. We produce more high end SOMs with 2GB than iMX6S/DL |
15:17 | jnettlet | also worth noting if there are thermal constraints. While the iMX6 is pretty great with thermals the iMX6S/DL is definitely better than the D/Q |
15:18 | topi` | ok :) |
15:18 | topi` | we'll be using the Metal Case in any case so probably thermals will be oK |
15:19 | jnettlet | should be fine |
15:19 | topi` | what I'm thinking is how to boot it... SD card will be out of question, so maybe get the HB-Edge with eMMC or then boot from a SSD? |
15:20 | topi` | SSD booting requires a particular eFuse setting, right? |
15:20 | jnettlet | topi`, all the new v1.5 SOMs come with eMMC, so plan on that. |
15:25 | topi` | even the HB-Gate? |
15:25 | topi` | oh, the eMMC is on the SOM and not on the carreir? |
15:28 | jnettlet | yeah, the eMMC has moved to the SOM |
15:28 | jnettlet | along with TI Wilink8 wifi |
15:29 | topi` | did the metal enclosure have 2 or 4 usb ports? I only see the "frontal" photo of the metal case |
