Feature: Sustainable Solutions


The performance increase of the AMD processor-based congatec modules enabled continuous improvements of Novatron solutions


example in gaming consoles that offered these days stunning user experiences,” explains Kalle Jussila, vp for production, at Novatron. “Having comprehensive Open GL support was especially crucial for us, as it ensured quick assistance in case of any issues with the cross-language and cross-platform programming interface for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. That is why we chose AMD processor technology at that time, and we are delighted that AMD continues to maintain its leading position in SoC-integrated GPUs today."

Providing the best user experience has always been paramount The initial 2D machine controller Xsite MCC15 utilised an embedded processor from the AMD Embedded G-series. This processor brought numerous enhancements compared to AMD’s prior generation. This single- chip G-Series SOC provided up to a 113 percent increase in CPU performance and advanced GPU support for DirectX 11.1, OpenGL 4.2 and OpenCL 1.29 for high-performance graphics processing


with up to 20 per cent improvement. Even today, AMD continues to set the


standard for powerful embedded x86 processors with integrated graphics. For instance, the latest 3D machine control controller incorporates the AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 SoC, which delivers graphics and multimedia processing performance comparable to discrete GPUs, reaching up to 3.61 TFLOPS—a remarkable 200 per cent improvement over previous AMD SoCs. Even more importantly, industrial-grade processor options are available that can operate
