I’m reaching out to you with a question regarding the power supply requirements for the Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dev Kit. We are planning to use the Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dev Kit in a vehicle where the power supply will depend on the engine’s ignition state. Consequently, we have concerns about safety and the potential consequences of a sudden power loss when the vehicle’s engine is turned off. We would like to know if it is necessary to implement a safe power-off system for the Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dev Kit or if it can be operated without one. We understand that a sudden power loss can result in data loss, file system damage, or other undesirable outcomes. Therefore, if it is recommended to use a safe power-off system for the Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dev Kit, we would appreciate receiving relevant recommendations and best practices for such situations. I would be grateful if you could provide information on the power supply requirements of the Jetson Orin NX 8GB Dev Kit in the context of automotive use and the necessity of a safe power-off system.
Hi, a safe power-off design is recommended. The custom design should follow below sequence listed in Design Guide doc. For the power loss, it should follow below Power Down Sudden Power Loss sequence.
