4. The Next Step Forward for AMD in Embedded: AMD G-Series Platform
We live in an always-on environment
that requires high performance.
There is an ongoing push for
decreased power, smaller size, higher
capability systems at lower prices.
There is a strong visual element and
Today, AMD is delivering the world’s first and
growing need for quality graphics in
only APU for embedded systems,
many embedded markets incorporating the new, very low power x86
“Bobcat” core with a world-class DirectX® 11-
capable GPU on a single piece of silicon.
