AMD Announces New Embedded Processors Athlon X2 Dual-Core 3400e, 3600+ and 4200+

By

AMD announced the addition of three new low power AMD Athlon X2 Dual-Core processors to its embedded product roadmap. The new AMD Athlon X2 Dual-Core processor Models 3400e, 3600+ and 4200+ deliver greater levels of performance in the same low-power envelopes of 22, 35, and 35W maximum thermal design power, respectively.

Offering continued platform stability, the new additions are AM2 socket-compatible to help embedded system designers easily upgrade from single-core or use their existing AM2 board designs to address new markets with reduced time-to-market and development costs. The new processors are designed to be paired with the AMD M690E chipset, offering embedded customers a ready-to-implement, stable and reliable commercial embedded platform. They can also be combined with other industry-leading chipsets including the Broadcom HT-2100 and HT-1000 chipsets for performance-hungry yet energy-efficient designs. Availability is expected in the second quarter of 2008 with embedded industry-standard component longevity of 5 years.
