 Product Overview
The AMD Geode™ LX EPIC Reference Design Kit (RDK) gives you a complete system design so you can get to
market quickly with high-performance, low-power systems for x86 embedded applications. This RDK helps you respond quickly to high-growth markets and develop/design highly efficient products that leverage PC/104 standards.
EPIC stands for Embedded Platform for Industrial Computing – which provides a complete computer built on
a single circuit board that has multiple I/O options and plug-and-play adaptability for hundreds of PC/104, PC/104-Plus,
and PCI/104 cards.
Small Form Factor with Rich Features
The EPIC is a small but feature-rich form factor, and is a
widely accepted standard that delivers design flexibility, compatibility with all PC/104 modules, and multiple I/O options.
Board complexity is reduced by the high integration of the Geode LX and CS5536 I/O Companion along with optimized
memory design. This allows for a full-feature 6-layer EPIC design on a single card with dimensions measuring
115mm x 165mm.
The AMD Geode LX EPIC RDK is powered by an AMD Geode™ LX processor that provides full compatibility with available x86 instruction sets and multiple operating systems. The Single Board Computer is complemented by the AMD Geode CS5536 companion device, which provides general I/O support including USB 2.0, audio, and ATA 100.
Complete Lead-Free Design, Six-Layer Technology
The AMD Geode LX EPIC RDK is designed and produced to meet the latest international standards for lead-free components, so you can leverage the design with confidence that it is future proof.
