Lead-free, four-layer technology
The AMD Geode GX SBC RDK is designed and produced to
meet the latest international standards for lead-free
components, which enables you to create new products with
assurance. New four-layer device technology leads to lower
production and development costs, which drive toward low
overall total cost of ownership for end products that feature
AMD x86 technology.
AMD is committed to low-power x86
The AMD Geode GX SBC reference design kit and other advanced
development tools represent the AMD commitment to low-power,
