Why it issues: AMD has introduced a brand new line of Epyc processors for embedded purposes. The aptly-named AMD Epyc Embedded 9004 Sequence consists of 10 fashions with core counts starting from 16 to 96, and thermal design energy (TDP) profiles between 200 watts and 400 watts. Base clock speeds vary from 2.4GHz to three.25GHz with a max frequency of as much as 4.15GHz on choose fashions, and all are constructed utilizing the Zen 4 5nm course of.
AMD’s new embedded options help non-volatile twin in-line reminiscence modules (NVDIMMs), which is a hybrid kind of reminiscence that mixes unstable DRAM and non-volatile flash reminiscence, in addition to non-transparent bridging (NTB) to spice up system reliability by enabling the trade of information between two redundant CPUs.
| Mannequin | Cores | TDP (W) | Base Clock | Max Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9654 | 96 | 360W | 2.4 GHz | 3.7 GHz |
| 9554 | 64 | 360W | 3.1 GHz | 3.75 GHz |
| 9454 | 48 | 290W | 2.75 GHz | 3.8 GHz |
| 9354 | 32 | 280W | 3.25 GHz | 3.8 GHz |
| 9254 | 24 | 200W | 2.9 GHz | 4.15 GHz |
| 9124 | 16 | 200W | 3.0 GHz | 3.7 GHz |
| 9654P | 96 | 360W | 2.4 GHz | 3.7 GHz |
| 9554P | 64 | 360W | 3.1 GHz | 3.75 GHz |
| 9454P | 48 | 290W | 2.75 GHz | 3.8 GHz |
| 9354P | 32 | 280W | 3.25 GHz | 3.8 GHz |
Epyc Embedded 9004 moreover helps twin serial peripheral interface ports, so off-chip ROMs can be utilized for safe boot.
AMD mentioned it plans to make its new processors accessible for as much as seven years to make sure a protracted help cycle.
Two of the corporate’s largest shoppers are already engaged on merchandise that includes AMD’s new {hardware}. Siemens’ new SIMATIC IPC RS-828A server will run Epyc Embedded 9004 Sequence processors, and Advantech’s ASMB-831 server board additionally helps the Socket SP5 resolution. AMD mentioned Advantech’s board is right for picture evaluation throughout quite a lot of fields together with sensible metropolis purposes and safety surveillance.
AMD’s Epyc Embedded 9004 Series chips are actually sampling to OEM and ODM prospects, and manufacturing shipments are anticipated to get below approach in April. Analysis kits with a reference board, improvement device kits and full documentation are additionally accessible to certified prospects, AMD added.
