DeviceGuru writes “On the eve of the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, AMD unveiled what it calls an ambidextrous embedded roadmap, based on a series of new system-on-chip (SoC) and accelerated processing unit (APU) products built from both ARM and x86 CPU cores. Planned for launch in 2014 are an ARM Cortex A57-based ‘Hierofalcon’ SoC, a ‘Bald Eagle’ APU using a new ‘Streamroller’ x86 CPU, a multi-core x86 ‘Steppe Eagle’ APU, and an ‘Adelaar’ discrete Embedded Radion GPU. ‘There are different customer needs in different segments of this market, from low-power to high-performance, Linux to Windows, and x86 to ARM,’ commented Arun Iyengar, VP and general manager, of the AMD Embedded Solutions division.”… DeviceGuru writes “On the eve of the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, AMD unveiled what it calls an ambidextrous embedded roadmap, based on a series of new system-on-chip (SoC) and accelerated processing unit (APU) products built from both ARM and x86 CPU cores.
