EEPD Launches AMD Ryzen Embedded NUC Boards & Mini PCs

Interest in SBCs is growing and even though their capabilities have improved over the years, there is a yearning for more, from processing power to IOs. To add to their already impressive line of SBC offerings, EEPD (Electronic Equipment Production and Distribution) recently announced the release of two SBCs; the Profive NUCV and the Profive NUCR which are based on the AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 and R1000 respectively.

The boards were both designed for industrial applications with EEPD mentioning that the boards were targetted at applications across various sectors including; aerospace and defense, industrial control and automation, IoT, Networking and thin clients, Medical Imaging, digital casino gaming, along with digital signage and retail to mention a few.

In line with the NUC standard, the boards utilize the AMD Ryzen Embedded platform with a Radeon Vega Graphics card integrated into the system. While the boards have a lot of similarity in face value, quite a number of differences exist within them. For instance, the NUCV comes with 4 different variants offering 4 different Ryzen Embedded V1000 series CPU and Vega 3, 8 and 11 AMD Radeon Graphics to choose from, while the NUCR, on the other hand, only has two variants of the R1000 series CPU with just the AMD Radeon Vega 3 graphics option. Both boards support operating systems like Windows 10, the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise and Linux ubuntu among others.  A summary of the features of these two board categories is provided below;
