RoHS Compatible Single Board Computer (SBC) from WIN Enterprises Features Energy Efficient CPU

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 14, 2006--
Low Power Consumption of AMD Geode(TM) Processor Allows Smaller Embedded DevicesWIN Enterprises, Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of embedded controllers and platforms for OEMs, announces the IP-06060, a RoHS-compatible SBC which utilizes the AMD Geode(TM) LX 800@0.9W processor. The 500 MHz processor is a low power consumer (0.9 watts) and has built-in encryption and 2-D graphics. The WIN SBC is only 5.7" x 4", and is designed to complement the AMD Geode processor with a SATA interface, VGA/LCD capability, two 10/100 LAN ports, audio and SSD.

The AMD Geode LX 800@0.9W processor is energy-efficient and designed for use in small computers, set-top boxes, TVs, handhelds, and consumer electronics devices. As an x86-based processor, the AMD Geode LX 800@0.9W processor will run the vast available library of conventional software. The AMD Geode(TM) LX 800@0.9W processor operates at 500 MHz. The processor model number reflects performance as described on the AMD website: http://www.amd.com/connectivitysolutions/geodelxbenchmark.

"Power consumption is increasingly an area of concern for OEMs, particularly in small form factor designs," said Erik Salo, director of marketing for AMD's Embedded Computing Solutions Division. "More power-intensive CPUs produce more heat, requiring bulky heat sinks and fans that add to the volume of the ultimate OEM device. The WIN MB-06060 is consistent with today's embedded market needs, offering good performance and a small footprint with low power requirements."
