The Q-2390 is aimed at commercial and consumer devices like retail, smart home, and smart displays, while the IQ-2390 targets industrial automation, machine vision, building management, and energy systems. Specs include an optional SiFive E61 RISC-V real-time core, Adreno 704 GPU, Hexagon NPU (1.1 TOPS), dual-channel LPDDR4x memory, Gigabit Ethernet with TSN, Wi-Fi 5/Bluetooth, optional 4G LTE and GNSS, and support for Android, Yocto Linux, Ubuntu, and Zephyr RTOS. The chips are rated for longevity until 2036, will be shown as SoMs at IFA 2026, with evaluation kits expected in Q1 2027. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What are the specifications of the Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-2390 processor? The Dragonwing Q-2390 is a quad-core SoC with one Arm Cortex-A78 core and three Cortex-A55 cores running up to 1.5 or 1.9 GHz depending on SKU, plus an optional SiFive E61 RISC-V real-time core up to 600MHz. It includes an Adreno 704 GPU, Hexagon NPU rated at 1.1 TOPS, dual-channel LPDDR4x memory, Gigabit Ethernet with TSN, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0/5.1, and optional 4G LTE Cat 4 and GNSS. _Track new AIoT silicon launches like this one as they roll out on daily.dev._ ### What is the difference between the Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-2390 and IQ-2390 processors? The Q-2390 targets consumer and commercial products such as retail devices, smart home gadgets, smart displays, and enterprise edge devices, while the IQ-2390 is built for industrial automation, machine vision, building management, and energy systems. The IQ variant supports a wider temperature range of -30°C to +115°C versus the Q variant's AA models at -30°C to +95°C, and both share the same core silicon otherwise. _Comparing chip variants for a product design gets easier following coverage like this on daily.dev._ ### What operating systems does the Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-2390 support? Qualcomm provides support for Android, Yocto Linux, and Ubuntu on the Cortex-A application cores of the Dragonwing Q-2390 and IQ-2390, and Zephyr RTOS for variants that include the optional RISC-V real-time core. Evaluation kits for these processors are expected to become available in the first quarter of 2027. _Developers picking an OS stack for embedded hardware follow chip announcements like this via daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Thundercomm TurboX C7790 Android and Linux development kit features Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-7790 Edge AI SoC](https://daily.dev/posts/thundercomm-turbox-c7790-android-and-linux-development-kit-features-qualcomm-dragonwing-q-7790-edge--satetoaxs) · CNX Software · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Advantech Introduces Dragonwing IQ9-Based Edge AI Solutions](https://daily.dev/posts/advantech-introduces-dragonwing-iq9-based-edge-ai-solutions-egosobb2h) · Embedded.com · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Firefly AIBOX-9075 Edge AI box features Qualcomm IQ-9075 SoC with 200 TOPS NPU, 36GB LPDDR5](https://daily.dev/posts/firefly-aibox-9075-edge-ai-box-features-qualcomm-iq-9075-soc-with-200-tops-npu-36gb-lpddr5-yakfyddfn) · CNX Software · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#hardware](https://daily.dev/tags/hardware), [#embedded](https://daily.dev/tags/embedded) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/qualcomm-introduces-dragonwing-q-2390-and-iq-2390-for-consumer-and-industrial-aiot-applications-bsbsffhwy) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Qualcomm introduces Dragonwing Q-2390 and IQ-2390 for consumer and industrial AIoT applications","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/qualcomm-introduces-dragonwing-q-2390-and-iq-2390-for-consumer-and-industrial-aiot-applications-bsbsffhwy","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/qualcomm-introduces-dragonwing-q-2390-and-iq-2390-for-consumer-and-industrial-aiot-applications-bsbsffhwy"},"datePublished":"2026-09-01T14:29:13.350Z","dateModified":"2026-09-02T11:00:12.131Z","description":"Qualcomm has announced the Dragonwing Q-2390 and IQ-2390 quad-core Cortex-A78/A55 processors targeting AIoT applications.
