Architecture Overview Clarifification on newly released Verdin iMX95 SoM datasheet

The architecture overview on the datasheet shows an i.MX95 15x15 chip. This seems to be in contradiction with all other sources and documentation where file formats always follow an im95-19x19 pattern. This can be seen in the Yocto setup guide for the i.MX 95 Verdin EVK on the torizon github repository (meta-toradex-torizon/docs/README-imx95.md at scarthgap-7.x.y · torizon/meta-toradex-torizon · GitHub). I would like clarification on what size i.MX95 chip is on the i.MX95 Verdin SoMs

Hello! Thank you for your detailed question.

You are correct that there are references to both “15x15” and “19x19” package sizes in various documents and repositories. The “i.MX95-19x19” naming you see in file formats and Yocto machine configurations (for example, in the meta-toradex-torizon repository) refers to a machine configuration for the Verdin iMX95 module. However, this is a naming pattern rather than a definitive indicator of the actual physical chip package used on Toradex SoMs.

The available documentation and online sources—such as the Verdin iMX95 product page—do not explicitly state the exact physical package size (i.e., whether it is 15x15mm or 19x19mm). References to “i.MX95-19x19” are related to software support and compatibility rather than confirming the physical package size.

If your application requires detailed information about the physical dimensions of the i.MX95 chip on the Verdin SoM, I recommend consulting the hardware datasheets and product documentation available from Toradex directly:

Given the current public information, the best practice is to rely on the official product documentation or contact Toradex if you need mechanical integration details.

If you have further questions or need support on the software side for the Verdin iMX95, feel free to ask!

Best regards,

Greetings @peterbakercarallon,

I think there is some confusion. Are you talking about the Verdin i.MX95 SOM or the Verdin i.MX95 EVK?

These are two different products and don’t use the same exact i.MX95 SoC chip.

The README you’re referencing was written for the EVK not the SOM. This is why it has references to 19x19, as the EVK uses this one.

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Thank you so much, Jeremias. I was wrongfully assuming that the EVK used the SOM which I now understand is not the case. Thanks so much for your help.

Glad I was able to help clarify.

Best Regards,
Jeremias
