Why AMD?

AMD Graphics – AMD Radeon® embedded graphics deliver exceptional graphics processing, multi-core computing, and embedded video solutions such as image scaling, transcoding, and decoding for multiple displays. AMD has the basic tools to allow customers to develop heterogeneous computing applications on their CPUs, GPUs, and APUs.

High-performance / Low power – The AMD G-Series Processors, with TDPs between 5-18W for the APU, offer an ideal solution for low-power and small form factor platforms while delivering a significant graphics performance boost in this power range.

Extensive I/O Support – AMD supports the latest in high speed I/O including PCI Express®, USB 2.0 and SATA Gen III, and continues to support interfaces such as PCI, LPC, SPI and SMBus for support of legacy I/O such as fieldbus, serial, networking and discrete I/O interfaces.

Scalability – A single platform can be developed to target both deeply embedded headless designs and those that demand the latest graphics technology for a stunning visual experience.

Accelerated Processors for Embedded Applications

Accelerated Processing Units (APU) combine CPU technologies and AMD Radeon graphics in a single chip. GPUs far exceed CPUs floating point capabilities so AMD combined the CPU and the GPU to create the Accelerated Processing Unit (APU).
