AMD Embedded G-Series SoC Powers New Line of Samsung All-In-One Thin Client Solutions

Singapore — June 18, 2015 — AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced that Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. selected
the AMD Embedded G-Series
SoC (system on chip) for a new line of all-in-one cloud monitors featuring
integrated thin  client technology.  The Samsung 21.5-inch TC222W and 23.6-inch
TC242W are powered by AMD Embedded G-Series SoCs that couple high-performance compute
and graphics capability in a highly integrated, low power design. The AMD SoC improves
data transfer rates and saves space on the motherboard, which makes it a
perfect fit for the compact form factors required by thin clients.

“Thin client is a key market for
AMD Embedded Solutions and we’re thrilled that Samsung has chosen to partner
with us for their newest line of products,” said Scott Aylor, vice president
and general manager, Embedded Solutions, AMD. “The collaboration with Samsung
builds on the number one position AMD holds in a market that continues to grow,
becoming more and more prevalent in commercial installations that serve a broad
range of markets.”  

Planned availability starting in Q3
2015, the Windows®-supported Samsung cloud monitors will provide
customers with expanded choice, capability and configuration flexibility.
Complete with Samsung’s professional-grade display panel, the cloud monitors
will create a superior user experience through easy connectivity and high-quality
reliability. As a superior option for effective desktop virtualization,
Samsung’s thin-client monitors will also enable improved productivity and
optimized end-to-end performance.

“Samsung’s powerful Windows Thin Client
Cloud displays combine
professional, ergonomic design with advanced thin-client technology to drive better manageability, security
and business efficiency through a dedicated Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
(VDI),” said Seog-Gi
Kim, senior vice president, Visual Display Business, Samsung Electronics. “Strengthened
by our partnership with AMD, our all-in-one TC222W and TC242W cloud
monitors reinforce our leadership in the thin-client industry. We’re proud to
announce the launch of these innovative thin client solutions, enhancing our
ability to respond to the IT equipment needs of our customers worldwide.”

AMD thin client solutions continue
to gain market adoption because of the move to cloud-based computing.
Increasingly, thin clients are also being used for more complex and high performance
tasks. This is especially true for devices incorporating x86 CPUs and
sophisticated graphics. The surge of innovation in the desktop virtualization
market has created new opportunities for powerful thin clients that are now
capable of executing demanding tasks including computer-aided design and 3D
modeling.

The Embedded AMD G-Series SoC combines graphics
computing circuitry with x86-based central processing cores in the same
accelerated processing unit (APU) design. 
They are built to handle a range of embedded applications and are
designed to provide the highest levels of power efficient graphics and compute
capabilities in the market.
