Synaptics Astra™ Machina Micro
Introducing the Synaptics Astra Machina Micro
AI MCU Platform for Context-Aware Compute
The Synaptics Astra Machina Micro dev kit enables rapid prototyping for the Synaptics SR100 Series of high performance, context-aware, multimodal AI MCUs. The dev kit brings interfaces and I/O ranging from qSPI for storage, M.2 for connectivity, digital mics for voice processing, and MIPI-CSI for multiple camera inputs. The SR100 series of MCUs - including SR110, SR105, and SR102 deliver AI-accelerated performance at all power levels in combination with ultra low-power multimodal sensing.
