Overview
The DEBIX M8391-01 is an industrial-grade single board computer built on the MediaTek Genio 720 (MT8391) platform. It pairs an 8-core Arm CPU (2x Cortex-A78 + 6x Cortex-A55) with the 8th-generation MediaTek NPU rated at up to 9 TOPS, making it a practical platform for on-device generative AI and multi-camera vision workloads that must run without cloud connectivity.
The board is offered in commercial and industrial temperature grades with identical pin-out, so a design validated on the commercial part can move to the -40 °C to 85 °C industrial variant without a PCB change. Dual independent display outputs (eDP 1.4 over Type-C plus a 4-lane MIPI DSI connector) and a 4-lane MIPI CSI camera input make it suitable for HMI panels, smart signage and AI camera products.
Storage and expansion are handled by 32 GB of on-board eMMC (up to 64 GB optional), an M.2 Key-M 2242 socket for PCIe 2.0 NVMe SSDs, and a microSD slot, with a 2 Kb EEPROM for board identity. The 85 x 56 mm form factor and sub-2 W idle consumption suit fanless enclosure designs.
Key Benefits
9 TOPS NPU for on-device GenAI with MDLA 5.3 acceleration. Scalable memory from 4 GB LPDDR4 to 16 GB LPDDR5X. Dual independent display plus MIPI CSI camera input on one board. Commercial and industrial grades share the same footprint for a single design.
Applications
Industrial HMI and operator panels, edge GenAI appliances, smart retail signage, machine-vision cameras, industrial gateways, POS and kiosk terminals, and medical/commercial display controllers.
