AMD is looking to break into the embedded processor market with 2 new processors according to a report from PCPerspective. The new processors are going after the Xeon D-series and Core chips with the Ryzen V1000 APU, and the EPYC 3000 series. The top of the range for the Ryzen V1000 series being the V1807B, a 4 core 8 thread APU with 11 GPU compute cores a 3.35GHz base frequency, and dual 10Gb ethernet ports at 35-54 watts. All the V1000 series will support up to four, 4k displays. The EPYC embedded processors do not have an iGPU, but it's flagship is the EPYC 3451, a 16 core 32 thread 100w chip, with 2.15GHz base 2.45GHz boost (all cores) frequencies, 32MB of L3 cache, 64 PCIE lanes and a TDP of 100w.
For people needing embedded solutions these new processors look fantastic on paper. Only time will tell to see how well they get adopted by the industry.
Both the Epyc 3000 and Ryzen V1000 chips represent the first time AMD has targeted embedded customers with specific features and capabilities at the hardware level. During the design phase of its Zen CPU and Vega graphics architecture, business unit leaders included capabilities like multiple 10-gigabit network integration, support of four 4K display outputs, ECC memory (error correction capability for mission-critical applications), and unique embedded-based interfaces for external connectivity.
