I see the height of the AGX Orin is 15.23mm. I want to know if that includes the Molex connector in that height, or is it just the height of the two plates and the PCB?

The height of the Jetson AGX Orin module is indeed 1523mm, but it does not include the Molex connector. The height of 1523mm refers to the height of the two plates and the PCB, excluding any connectors.
To clarify, the Molex connector is a separate component that is attached to the module, and its height is not included in the 1523mm measurement. The Molex connector is typically mounted on the top of the module, and its height is usually around 2-3mm.
It’s worth noting that the Jetson AGX Orin module has a SODIMM connector, which is a type of edge connector that is commonly used in embedded systems. The SODIMM connector is mounted on the bottom of the module, and its height is included in the 1523mm measurement.
In comparison, the Jetson Orin NX and Jetson Orin Nano modules have a similar design, but with slightly different dimensions. The Jetson Orin NX module has a height of 1300mm, while the Jetson Orin Nano module has a height of 1200mm. Both of these modules also have SODIMM connectors, but with slightly different designs.
When designing a carrier board for the Jetson AGX Orin module, it’s essential to take into account the height of the module, including the Molex connector, to ensure proper clearance and compatibility. The recommended standoff height for the Jetson AGX Orin module is around 2-3mm, which allows for proper clearance between the module and the carrier board.
In summary, the height of the Jetson AGX Orin module is 1523mm, excluding the Molex connector. The Molex connector is a separate component that adds an additional 2-3mm to the overall height of the module. When designing a carrier board, it’s crucial to consider the total height of the module, including the Molex connector, to ensure proper clearance and compatibility.

Hi jrager,
The 15.23mm includes the majority of the Molex connector’s height but there is a small part of the Molex connector that extends past the bottom plate. Please refer to Chapter 3 “Main Connector Details” in the Jetson AGX Orin Series Design Guide for additional information and diagrams relating to the connector height when the module is mounted on a carrier board.
