Overview
The Cardshark device, powered by the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB module, supports multiple power modes that let you optimize performance and power consumption based on your application’s needs. These modes are managed using the nvpmodel utility, which adjusts CPU/GPU clock frequencies, the number of active CPU cores, and other system parameters.
