AMD Announces The EPYC Embedded 9005 Series

([AMD] 109 Minutes Ago AMD EPYC Embedded 9005 Series)


Since last year we have continued to be impressed by the AMD [1]EPYC 9005 "Turin" server processors while today they are announcing the EPYC Embedded 9005 line-up. The AMD EPYC Embedded 9005 Series processors are much like the EPYC 9005 series processors but with a few differences.

With the embedded focus of the EPYC Embedded 9005 Series, AMD is committing a 7-year product support span for these Embedded SKUs. In addition, these SKUs are rated for extended temperature operation given the often harsh environments of embedded systems. The AMD EPYC Embedded 9005 Series is also certified for non-transparent bridging (NTB), data retention during power loss with DRAM flash, platform authentication at boot via dual SPI, and is also certified for Yocto Linux and DPDK/SPDK use-cases.

In effect it's the AMD EPYC 9005 line-up but with added certifications and extra validation of use by embedded AMD customers. With the AMD EPYC Embedded 9005 line-up you still get up to 192 cores as with the conventional EPYC 9005 processors and the CPU specifications otherwise are unchanged. Over the EPYC Embedded 9004 line-up, it's a great deal of performance and power efficiency uplift as I have shown in the many EPYC 9004 vs. EPYC 9005 benchmarking on Phoronix over the past several months.

AMD says the EPYC Embedded 9005 processors are sampling now and going into production next quarter (Q2-2025).

[5]

The SKU table is much the same as the EPYC 9005 series but with different OPNs for the EPYC Embedded 9005 line-up and the extra embedded features.

[6]

AMD has been working on Linux enhancements around their NTB support and more.

[7]

These extra embedded features will be of interest to some, especially the DRAM flush support and dual SPI. The official Yocto support is also delightful to some in crafting their embedded Linux environments.

That's about it for the information to share today on the AMD EPYC Embedded 9005 line-up announcement.

To code the impossible code, This is my quest --
To bring up a virgin machine, To debug that code,
To pop out of endless recursion, No matter how hopeless,
To grok what appears on the screen, No matter the load,
To write those routines
To right the unrightable bug, Without question or pause,
To endlessly twiddle and thrash, To be willing to hack FORTRAN IV
To mount the unmountable magtape, For a heavenly cause.
To stop the unstoppable crash! And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest,
And the queue will be better for this, That my code will run CUSPy and calm,
That one man, scorned and When it's put to the test.
destined to lose,
Still strove with his last allocation
To scrap the unscrappable kludge!
