Message Text: AMD today announced a new low-power Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) in the its G-Series SOC family with the GX-210JA, further reducing x86 power requirements for embedded designs.

The new GX-210JA APU, a full System-on-Chip (SoC) design, uses one-third less energy than the previous low-power Embedded G-Series SOC product while providing increased graphics capabilities. At only 6 watts maximum thermal design power (TDP), and approximately 3 watts expected average power, this new member of the G-Series SOC family will enable additional fanless designs for a variety of applications ranging from industrial controls and automation, digital gaming, communications infrastructure and visual embedded products including thin client, digital signage and medical imaging.

According to Colin Barnden, principal analyst at Semicast Research: "At only 6W TDP, the GX-210JA adds to the scalable offering of the AMD Embedded G-Series family, and provides engineers with greater design choice and flexibility while keeping software overhead costs at a minimum by leveraging the same architecture across the product family."

The GX-210JA is part of the AMD Embedded G-Series SOC processor family, which includes:

- Enterprise-class Error-Correction Code (ECC) memory support;
- Industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and available with dual- or quad-core CPUs;
- Discrete-class AMD Radeon GPU;
- Integrated I/O controller.

The AMD Embedded G-Series SOC platform, including the GX-210JA, is currently shipping.
