New AMD processor family for demanding performance requirements

The Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series is designed for a diverse range of embedded applications, including industrial automation, machine vision, robotics, and Edge servers, thanks to its expanded features and integration capabilities.

The processor is the to employ next-generation 5nm technology, backed by a commitment to a 7-year manufacturing availability. It integrates AMD Radeon RDNA 2 graphics, eliminating the need for a separate GPU in industrial applications. Additionally, recognising the diverse requirements of embedded applications, the Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors support a range of operating systems, including Windows Server and Linux Ubuntu, in addition to Windows 10 and Windows 11. These processors also feature up to 12 high-performance CPU cores, which, combined with its comprehensive integrated features and broad operating system support, significantly eases system integration for designers.

Rajneesh Gaur, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Embedded Processors Group at AMD, stated: “Industrial application use cases are continuing to grow in complexity and sophistication and are driving the need for increased processing capabilities. With the integration of key performance features and a scalable design, Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series processors are ideal for a broad range of applications from advanced robotics and instrumentation design to power control, video surveillance and more.”

Kevin Krewell, Principal Analyst at TIRIAS Research, highlighted the significance of the new series: “For embedded industrial applications, it is critical to provide differentiated and scalable offerings while still meeting power, performance, and budget requirements. The new AMD Ryzen Embedded 7000 Series is purpose-built for a wide spectrum of use-cases, making it an ideal choice for industrial applications in a market that will continue to see growth and diversity.”
