AMD Opteron™ processors provide unprecedented performance-per-watt, flexibility, and reliability. They are ideal for high-end telecom applications, high performance storage, single board computer/blade, edge-of-enterprise systems, and networking appliances. In addition, lower-power 45W AMD Opteron processors are excellent for driving traditional embedded applications such as security and medical imaging, military systems, and single-board computing.
AMD Opteron processors offer unique advantages for high-end embedded systems:
HyperTransport™ technology provides up to 24.0GB/s peak bandwidth per processor
On-die integrated memory controller offers available memory bandwidth up to 10.7GB/s (with DDR2-667) per processor
Hardware assisted AMD Virtualization™ technology in AMD Opteron processors with DDR2 helps streamline the efficiency of multiple servers and provides virtual machine memory isolation for improved security
Quad-Core AMD Opteron processors are designed to be socket compatible with DDR2-based platforms within existing power and thermal envelopes for significantly better performance-per-watt
AMD Opteron processors are NEBS-friendly, supporting telecommunications industry requirements for reliability
AMD Opteron processors provide unique scalability options with glueless multi-processing from one socket to 8 socket systems
AMD PowerNow!™ technology can deliver performance on demand while minimizing power consumption
AMD64 technology provides features like Error Correcting Code (ECC) and JTAG interfaces for effective debug during system development
