AMD announces very low power APUs for embedded market

Posted in Daily, Digital Signage Today, Signage on May 24th, 2011 by Banbanli

From Digital Signage today

AMD today announced the immediate availability of two new AMD Embedded G-Series APUs (Accelerated Processing Units) with thermal design power ratings of 5.5 and 6.4 watts, up to a 39 percent power savings compared to earlier versions.

The very low power consumption and small 361-square-millimeter package is suited for compact, fanless embedded systems like digital signage, kiosks, mobile industrial devices and many of the new emerging industry-standard small form factors such as Qseven, according to AMD. The new low-power offering for the embedded market features one or two low-power x86 “Bobcat” CPU cores and a discreet class DirectX 11-capable GPU on a single die.

A fanless solution is crucial for many small embedded systems where the added cost for an active cooling system can be prohibitive or for environments where silent operation is a key requirement. Additionally, many embedded products are deployed in harsh environmental conditions where the presence of a fan represents a potential failure point for the system.

According to AMD, systems based on the new low-power AMD Embedded G-Series platform include an industrial mobile device from Amtek, a Pico-ITX single board computer from Axiomtek, a Qseven form factor computer-on-module from datakamp, and a fanless digital signage platform from iBASE. Additional customers are expected to bring new products to market in the coming quarters.

 

Palm Pre in EU

Posted in Daily, Palm on July 12th, 2009 by Banbanli

pre-europe-o2-movistar這是幾天前在Palminfocenter 的消息,主要是說Palm 已經正式透過媒體,Pre 會在某個節日上市,(我覺得大概就是聖誕結了)初期O2會擁有UK 跟Germany的專賣權,在西班牙就是Movistar取得專賣。

不過看到了其他人的評論,說大概十月應該就會在市面上鋪貨了。這代表GSM版本應該就會開始開賣了,不支到會不會有人帶水貨過來賣,其實我還蠻期待這隻手機的。

新家的Topology

Posted in Daily, Palm on September 2nd, 2008 by Banbanli

新家的網路連線,比較複雜的是,MOD是pulic IP,所以會透過PLC直接接VDSL, PS3 雖然是可以走wireless 連Draytek 2910VG, 不過跑video 比較不穩,所以也是連接PLC,問題來了,PLC都只有一個port ,一個已經接了VDSL,所以現在再接一個switch 1 port 接router 後面,1port 接VDSL ,這樣在客廳就可以同時擁有 private IP and Public IP.

看到Zyxel 有出4 port PLC,也許是取代1 port + switch 的solution
