AMD Geode™ LX Processor Family and AMD Geode™ LX DB800 Development Board

AMD Geode™ LX Processor Family and AMD Geode™ LX DB800 Development Board
Design Without Compromise


The AMD Geode™ LX 700@0.8W processor,* the AMD Geode LX800@0.9W processor,** and the new AMD Geode LX 900@1.5W processor*** bring x86 power and versatility to applications for entertainment, business, education, and embedded markets.

The AMD Geode LX 900@1.5W processor is the most advanced Geode LX processor for demanding embedded applications. This level of capability may not be needed for every application, but when premium performance is needed, the AMD Geode LX 900@1.5W processor delivers. The AMD Geode LX processor’s integrated, innovative architecture is one of the most energy-efficient x86 solutions in the industry and can lead to longer battery life and enable small form-factor designs.

Design with greater efficiency

The AMD Geode LX processor family offers new levels of performance and power versatility in an x86-based embedded processor. The AMD Geode LX 900@1.5W processor operates at a maximum power of 5.1W (TDP). The AMD Geode LX 800@0.9W processor operates at a maximum power of 3.6W (TDP) and 1.8W is typical at 500MHz, while the AMD Geode LX 700@0.8W consumes a maximum power of 3.1W (TDP) and 1.3W typically at 433MHz.


Computer-On-Module design tool

The AMD Geode LX DB800 development board is a complete Computer-On-Module (COM), x86-compatible development tool designed to enable developers to quickly create embedded or industrial computing products using the AMD Geode LX 800@0.9W processor.

The complete tool suite includes two separate components:

  • CPU Module Board
  • Base Board

Developers can easily design these components into finished products without modification – simplifying the development process and leading to faster time-to-market cycles. The development board measures 170mm x 170mm and includes a 500 MHz processor.
