What does the MO-62A offer?
The MO-62A is a 2-TOPS AI single-board computer for on-device vision inference at the edge. Key specs:
| — | — |
| Compute | 4× Cortex-A53 @ 1.4 GHz + C7x DSP + 2-TOPS Deep Learning Accelerator |
| Vision pipeline | On-chip ISP + VPAC (RGB-IR, WDR, LDC); 1× 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 |
| RAM | LPDDR4, 2 GB / 4 GB (default) / 8 GB SKUs ( MO-62A-2G/-4G/-8G ) |
| OS | Debian Linux |
| Connectivity | 1× Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi 5 dual-band, BLE 4.2 |
| Other I/O | 4× USB 2.0 Type-A, micro HDMI, 3.5 mm audio, 40-pin HAT-compatible header, micro SD |
| Security | Secure Boot, ARM TrustZone, OP-TEE, hardware AES-256 |
| Power / size | USB Type-C 5 V (25 W max), 85 × 56 mm, 47 g |
The 85 × 56 mm board and 40-pin layout are mechanically compatible with standard SBC enclosures and HAT accessories. Typical applications: AI vision boxes, intelligent cameras, defect inspection, and other edge-AI inference terminals. The MO-62A is a developer-oriented SBC managed via SSH and standard Debian tooling — it does not run InHand IEOS or DeviceLive.
How do I flash and boot the MO-62A for the first time?
- Flash the SD card — download the latest
.img.zipfrom the release page (SDK on GitHub:github.com/inhandnet/mo-62a). Use balenaEtcher (Windows / macOS / Linux) orddto write the image to a ≥16 GB Class 10 / UHS-I micro SD card. - Connect peripherals — insert the card, connect a monitor via micro HDMI, plug RJ45 into your network, and optionally attach USB keyboard/mouse and an IMX219 camera ribbon.
- Apply power last via USB Type-C (5 V, ≥3 A). The red Power LED lights immediately. Normal boot is 30–45 s; the first boot adds 1–2 minutes while the root filesystem expands to fill the SD card, after which the board auto-reboots into the XFCE desktop.
- Log in with username
debian, passwordtemppwd— valid for one login only, then you’re prompted to set a new password immediately.
For headless setup, the board acquires DHCP automatically and is reachable at ssh [email protected] (mDNS) or ssh debian@. A 3-pin TTL UART debug connector is also provided (115200 baud, 8N1) for serial-console access.
How do I run AI models on the MO-62A?
Models run through the TI Deep Learning (TIDL) runtime, which accepts TFLite ( .tflite ) and ONNX ( .onnx ) models. The on-chip ISP/VPAC handles RAW→RGB conversion, WDR, and lens correction so the DLA gets a clean input; pre- and post-processing in Python or C/C++ commonly use OpenCV and GStreamer.
At 2 TOPS the MO-62A is sized for image classification, lightweight object detection (e.g., YOLO-Nano variants), OCR, presence/anomaly sensing, and gesture or pose recognition. For multi-stream / high-resolution detection at higher frame rates, step up to a higher-TOPS InHand AI edge computer.
How do I use the 40-pin header on the MO-62A?
The 40-pin HAT-compatible header exposes GPIO, I²C, SPI, UART, PWM, and PCM at 3.3 V logic. Standard SBC HAT accessories mount mechanically — verify electrical compatibility (3.3 V) before connecting.
Pin notes:
- All user pins default to GPIO; alternate functions are enabled via device-tree overlays.
- Pins 27/28 are reserved for the camera I²C bus — they cannot be used as general GPIO.
- The board ships with libgpiod v2.x; the
-cflag is required to specify a chip. Three gpiochips (gpiochip0–gpiochip2) cover the MCU and main domains.
Quick examples:
“ bash`
gpiodetect # list chips
gpioget -c gpiochip2 23 # read pin 11
gpioset -c gpiochip1 39=1 # drive pin 7 high
gpiomon -c gpiochip2 23 # watch edges
i2cdetect -y 2 # scan camera I²C bus
For higher-bandwidth peripherals, use the 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 connector (IMX219 supported via the bundled imx219-preview.sh` script), the micro HDMI for displays, and the four USB 2.0 Type-A ports for storage and adapters.
