JetPack releases for this kit
| JetPack | Jetson Linux (L4T) | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7.2.1 | 39.2.1 | 2026-08 | Current. The ISO now flashes the Orin Nano Developer Kit with the Super Mode configuration by default, which addresses the r39.2 issue where ISO-updated units stayed on their previous power profile. |
| 7.2 | 39.2.0 | 2026-06 | First JetPack 7 release for the Orin family (Ubuntu 24.04, kernel 6.8, CUDA 13.x). Known issue on this release: units updated via the Jetson ISO did not default to Super mode — see Troubleshooting. |
| 6.2.x | 36.x | 2025 | JetPack 6 line for this kit (Ubuntu 22.04). This is where the "Super" power mode was introduced — the same hardware, with higher CPU/GPU/memory clocks and the 25 W mode. |
| 6.0 / 6.1 | 36.x | 2024–2025 | Earlier JetPack 6 releases. |
| 5.1.3 | 35.x | 2023–2024 | Oldest firmware line still referenced today: the JetPack 6.x Update Path uses a 5.1.3 bridge image to bring very old kits up to JetPack 6.x-generation firmware before JetPack 7 can be installed. |
