ROCHESTER, N.Y., March 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Performance
Technologies (Nasdaq: PTIX), a leading developer of communication platforms
and systems, today announced the immediate availability of the AMC590, the
company's newest family member of AdvancedMC(TM) products. The single,
mid-size module features AMD's latest, high-performance graphics processor
for the embedded market, the ATI Radeon(TM) E2400, and can be configured
with either a SATA or SAS-based hard drive.
Using the AMC590, with its highly compact form factor and
standards-based, hot-swappable, and NEBS-compliant capabilities, product
engineers can build graphics and/or storage subsystems into their product
applications. The ATI Radeon E2400 delivers exceptional 2D, 3D, and
multimedia graphics with 128 MB of internal GDDR3 memory and comes equipped
with dual-display support, integrated audio, and PCI Express(R) interface.
Full product specifications for the AMC590 and product photo can be found
at http://www.pt.com/amc590. The company's full line of industry leading, embedded
hardware and Linux(R) software (NexusWare(R)) solutions are ideal for
product development environments such as telecommunications, aerospace and
defense, and commercial.
"The AMC590 makes an excellent choice for MicroTCA(TM) or ATCA
applications where graphic-intensive or storage-intensive capabilities are
required," said Tony Romero, product manager for Performance Technologies.
"Product options include video and storage, storage-only, or video-only."
"We're pleased to have the ATI Radeon E2400 incorporated into
Performance Technologies' new AMC offering," said Richard Jaenicke,
director of embedded graphics for AMD. "The on-chip graphics memory and low
power of the ATI Radeon E2400 enables high-performance graphics solutions
in a small form factor, such as the AMC590 from Performance Technologies."
Electronic system architects and design engineers needing advanced,
compute-intensive embedded solutions can meet with Performance Technologies
representatives at the upcoming Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley
in San Jose, CA (April 15-17, 2008, booth 1510).
