Rutronik will add MediaTek Genio 520 and Genio 720 Edge AI IoT platforms to its product portfolio. The platforms, based on a 6 nm process node, integrate an octa-core CPU with two Arm Cortex-A78 processors and six Cortex-A55 processors for optimised energy efficiency and performance. The platforms' unified hardware and software design makes them ideal for efficiently delivering multimodal generative AI applications and bringing corresponding products to market faster. MediaTek products are available here.
Both platforms, Genio 520 and Genio 720, offer outstanding performance at the edge and enable up to 10 TOPS thanks to the built-in MediaTek 8th generation Neural Processing Unit (NPU) with full hardware acceleration for transformer and convolutional neural network (CNN) models. The option of using LPDDR5 memory enables high memory performance of up to 16 GB for data-intensive, edge-optimized large language models (LLM) such as Llama, Gemini, Phi or DeepSeek and to accelerate generative AI tasks. Open Standard Modules (OSM) with reference designs are also supported to ensure performance and signal integrity, shortening development cycles.
By integrating NVIDIA TAO and widely used AI models for edge AI applications into both models, developers can scale planned designs across different products and form factors.
This highly power-efficient platform is ready for long-life industrial deployments (10+ years product life commitment). MediaTek’s 25+ years in business ensure product and service developers it’s a partner they can trust when committing to new long-term projects and deployments.
Additional key features:
- Support for one 4K/5K ultrawide display or two 2.5K displays
