Product Spotlight: TS-9370

The TS-9370 from embeddedTS is a next-generation embedded computing solution designed for industrial and military-grade applications that demand low power consumption, high reliability, and long-term availability. Built on the NXP i.MX 9352 dual-core Cortex®-A55 processor, this  single board computer (SBC)  offers a compelling mix of performance, security, and flexibility in a compact, fanless design. Whether deployed in edge computing, secure communications, or control systems, the TS-9370 delivers robust compute power where it matters most.

Arm-Based Performance That’s Optimized for Embedded Applications

At the heart of the TS-9370 is the i.MX 9352, a processor tailored for low-power, embedded workloads. With its dual Cortex-A55 cores running at up to 1.5 GHz, it strikes a balance between performance and efficiency. This makes it ideal for applications requiring responsive control, lightweight AI/ML inference at the edge, or secure data processing without the bulk or heat of traditional x86-based systems.

A dedicated Cortex-M33 core provides real-time control, ideal for industrial automation and time-critical tasks. This heterogeneous architecture allows developers to partition workloads between the general-purpose Linux environment and bare-metal firmware for precision control and deterministic response.

Connectivity, I/O, and Expandability: Designed for Flexibility

The TS-9370 includes a comprehensive I/O suite ready for real-world deployments. Key features include:

• Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports (one with TS-optimized power-saving PHY)

• 4x RS-232/422/485 serial ports

• CAN bus support

• USB 2.0, LVDS, I2C, SPI, and GPIO

• M.2 B-key slot for 4G/5G modems or NVMe storage

• MicroSD and eMMC storage options

• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support (via daughter card)

This rich connectivity makes the TS-9370 highly adaptable to a wide range of industries, from transportation and energy to defense, automation, and remote monitoring.

Built for Harsh Environments

Designed for rugged deployments, the TS-9370 operates reliably across an industrial temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C and is engineered for fanless, solid-state operation. With a robust power input range of 5 V to 30 V, onboard power conditioning, and power monitoring features, it thrives in environments where electrical noise or unstable power is a concern.

Its compact 75mm x 55mm footprint, conforming to the TS-SOCKET standard, ensures compatibility with existing baseboards and accelerates time-to-market for custom designs.

Security Features Built In

The TS-9370 includes support for ARM TrustZone®, secure boot, hardware cryptography, and optional TPM 2.0 integration. This makes it suitable for secure communications, encryption-sensitive applications, and industries that require strict data integrity and authentication measures. Combined with long-term support for mainline Linux and Yocto Project builds, the TS-9370 offers both software and hardware assurance for secure system development.

Low Power, High Efficiency

With idle power consumption as low as 2.3 W and full-load consumption typically under 6 W, the TS-9370 is designed with energy efficiency in mind. This makes it an ideal fit for remote deployments, solar-powered systems, and mobile platforms where thermal envelope and battery life are constraints.

Software and Development Support

The TS-9370 ships with a pre-configured Linux OS (based on Yocto or Debian) and includes full source code access, board support packages, and comprehensive documentation. Developers benefit from tools like U-Boot, OTA update support, and cross-compilation toolchains. embeddedTS also offers customization services, including image preloading, board bring-up, and software tailoring for specialized deployments.

 

Long-Term Availability and Support

As with all embeddedTS products, the TS-9370 is backed by 10+ years of availability, ensuring consistency for product life cycles in industrial and military markets. embeddedTS offers U.S.-based technical support and engineering services, making it easy to collaborate on custom enclosures, daughter cards, or firmware enhancements to meet unique project requirements.

Applications and Use Cases

The TS-9370 is a fit for a broad range of embedded and industrial applications, including:

• Secure communications gateways

• Edge AI and vision processing

• SCADA and industrial control systems

• IoT edge nodes

• Transportation and fleet monitoring

• Defense and battlefield computing

• Smart energy and environmental sensing

Its combination of performance, low power, and rugged durability enables it to act as the intelligent backbone of modern embedded systems.
