Introduction

Advantech ROM-8720 COM Express Type 7 Compact Computer-on-Module is powered by NXP LS1046A SoC which includes four Arm Cortex-A72 cores for Edge networking and

Edge firewall, two 10Gbsp-KR and up to four Gbps for the networking communications. Three PCIe, three USB 3.2 Gen1 and three USB2.0 for the embedded interface expansions.

two UART, one SPI and 8 GPIO for embedded device controls.

ROM-8720 is paired with Advantech SOM-DB5920 Evaluation Carrier Board for faster end product peripheral integration and time-to-market. The reference schematics and layout

checklists documentations for carrier board development will be provided along with Linux BSP with DPAA (Data Path Architecture Acceleration) SDK for Queue / Buffer / Frame

Manager and SEC encryption, test utilities, hardware design utilities and reference drivers.
