AMD Ryzen Embedded R1000 processor lineup expanded with R1102G and R1305G Processors
Today, AMD introduced two new low-power processors in the AMD RyzenTM Embedded R1000 family and continues to grow the Mini PC ecosystem based on AMD Ryzen Embedded processors.
The AMD Ryzen Embedded R1102G and R1305G Processors scale from 6 to 10 watts of TDP respectively and give customers looking for efficient power envelopes the ability to create fanless systems. Kontron and Simply NUC each announced their support of the new processor designs with products such as Kontron’s scalable mini-ITX platform and Simply NUC’s new Mini PC unit, Red Oak.
As a part of the growing momentum of AMD Ryzen Embedded Processors and the Mini PC ecosystem, multiple partners shared on their collaboration, including:
- Sapphire’s new 4x4 platforms based on AMD Ryzen Embedded Processors: the BP-FP5 and NP-FP5 embedded boards,
- Simply NUC with the new Post Oak and Red Oak Mini PCs, based on the Ryzen Embedded R1000 and V1000 processors,
- SECO and its AMD Ryzen Embedded Processor based Mini PC KIT, the UDOO BOLT GEAR, that can drive up to 4 screens in 4K resolution at 60fps at the same time.
- As well, OnLogic announced the availability of previously announced Mini PCs based on AMD Ryzen Embedded processors.
SANTA CLARA, Calif., — Feb. 25, 2020 — AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the expansion of the AMD Ryzen™ Embedded ecosystem with two new AMD Ryzen™ Embedded R1000 low-power processors that provide customers with a new TDP range of 6 up to 10 watts. AMD also announced new customers offering Mini PCs based on the AMD Ryzen Embedded processors from Sapphire, SECO, Simply NUC and others.
“AMD is ushering in a new age of high-performance computing for the embedded industry,” said Rajneesh Gaur, corporate vice president and general manager, Embedded Solutions, AMD. “We are doing this with cutting-edge technology to display immersive graphics in 4K resolution with AMD Ryzen Embedded processors, and we are now offering access to high performance in power-efficient solutions with these new low-power Ryzen Embedded R1000 processors.”
New AMD Ryzen Embedded Processors
In April 2019, AMD launched an expansion to the Ryzen Embedded processor lineup with the AMD Ryzen Embedded R1000 SoC. Built on “Zen” CPU and Radeon™ “Vega” graphics cores, the Ryzen Embedded R1000 processor delivers 3X better CPU performance per watt compared to the previous generation AMD R-series Embedded processor, and 4X better CPU and graphics performance per dollar than the competition.
The AMD Ryzen Embedded R1000 family now includes two new processors designed for efficient power envelopes, the Ryzen Embedded R1102G and R1305Gprocessors. The new processors scale from 6 up to 10 watts of TDP respectively, while also giving customers the ability to reduce system costs with less memory DIMMS and lower power requirements. With this low power envelope, these embedded processors give customers the ability to create fanless systems, opening new markets that can leverage the high-performance Ryzen Embedded processors. These two new processors are expected to be available for order at the end of March.
Customers adopting the Ryzen Embedded R1102G and R1305G include Kontron with a scalable mini-ITX platform and Simply NUC with a new mini PC unit called Red Oak, which offers affordable mainstream performance solutions with a cost optimized feature set to its lineup of Ryzen Embedded based Mini PCs.

I think this is the first time we have seen a 6w Zen APU. That would mean that Zen could come to Chromebooks. Currently AMD only has a 6w previous gen A series APU so that would be a big step up.

It's nice seeing that 2c/4t CPUs still have a purpose, in embedded devices. Nowadays, 4 cores is pretty much the lowest you want to go for a modern laptop or desktop PC.
