SECTION 3 Overiew
3.1 Jetson compute module
This new JN30D carrier board has been designed primarily for the Jetson Nano compute modules.
When using other modules like the Jetson NX power limits may be exceeded as the USB C power
supply only supplies up to 3A. More power may be supplied to the board via the two 5V pins on the
GPIO header. In this case the USB supply should not be connected.
3.2 JN30D
Easy integration into passively cooled systems
Optionally available as complete system in passively cooled enclosure
Easy flashing: just connect a USB OTG cable (Auto Flash)
High performance storage: M.2 NVME PCIe x4

SECTION 4 Features
4.1 GPIO-Header
A 40 pin 2.54mm header for GPIO, I2C, I2S and UART. Die pinout is similar to the GPIO header on the
NVIDIA dev kits and on the Raspberry Pi. Please note that all signals (except I2C) have uni-directional
level shifters. In other boards some of these signals may be bi-directional which may cause
compatibility issues. Auvidea does not guarantee the compatibility to any specific add-on boards.
Please check the compatibility yourself. Some signals are 5V tolerant inputs and therefore may be
driven from 5V logic outputs.
The 40 pin GPIO header is included (but not soldered in).
4.2 Crypto chip
The crypto chip has been added to support software licensing and copy protection. Please check the
data sheet of the manufacturer for details.
Model: ATSHA204A-MAHCZ-T
https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/ATSHA204A-Data-Sheet-40002025A.pdf
4.3 MCU
A MCU for additional power management and watchdog functions is optional. It is standard on some of the
extended versions of the JN30D.

SECTION 5 Pinout description
Please note that the software GPIO number differs from the socket pin number. This software GPIO
number must be computed with a special formula and differs between the various compute
modules. Please see appendix B for details.
5.1 J3 - Ethernet (GbE)
Standard RJ45 pinout with PoE capable magnetics class 3 and 4 (PD or PSE). Connected to the
Ethernet controller on the compute module.
5.2 J4 - M.2 PCIEx4 NVME SSDs
Please note that only NVME SSDs are supported. SATA SSDs are not supported. We recommend the
128GB Transcend SSDs (TS128GMTE110S). This SSD is standard in some of the Auvidea development
system offerings.
