eInfochips (an Arrow Company) announces the launch of Eragon 660 and 625 modules for companies to accelerate the time-to-market for products using the Qualcomm SDA660 and Qualcomm APQ8053 processors, respectively. The addition of these Qualcomm Technologies’ processors to the Eragon 600-series allows eInfochips to address the growing demand in advanced computing and video processing on handheld devices.

“This work with eInfochips allows large numbers of innovators to create exciting products and solutions using the technologies that transform how the world connects, computes and communicates,” said Joseph Bousaba, Vice President of product management at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “These Eragon 660 and 625 modules from eInfochips deliver new and advanced capabilities that developers can use to participate in the large and growing IoT opportunity.”

Eragon 660 and Eragon 625 modules can work as building blocks for embedded products requiring solutions for Gaming, 4K Camera, Smart HMI, Digital Signage, Medical Imaging, and more using on-device AI. The Qualcomm SDA660 processor at the heart of Eragon 600 is a powerful processor, featuring the Qualcomm® AI Engine, Qualcomm Spectra™ 160 ISP, Qualcomm® Kryo™ 260 CPU and Qualcomm® Hexagon™ 680 DSP with vector extensions. At the same time, the Qualcomm APQ8053 which powers Eragon 625 is designed to provide fast connectivity, vibrant visuals, and exceptional performance for immersive experiences. The Eragon 660 and 625 modules come pre-integrated with Android, making them ideal for prototyping and parallel development of hardware and software solutions.

“eInfochips offers custom hardware design and manufacturing solutions, based on Qualcomm Technologies’ processors, by leveraging comprehensive experience of 200+ designs and a strong ecosystem of contract manufacturers associated with Arrow Electronics. As an early adopter of technology, eInfochips is already engaged with its customers in the design and development of Smart HMI and IoT solutions based on the Qualcomm SDA660 processor,” said Parag Mehta, Chief Business Development Officer at eInfochips.
