How our Premier Embedded Partnership with AMD helps accelerate product development

Since 2009, TOPIC Embedded Systems and AMD have worked closely together to bring advanced embedded solutions to life. Recently, this collaboration was reaffirmed with the extension of our AMD Premier Embedded Partnership. But what makes this partnership so valuable? And how does it help accelerate our customers' product development?

The answer lies in three key elements: our direct collaboration with AMD experts, early access to the latest technologies and the strength of TOPIC’s multidisciplinary design team. Together, these pillars enable us to deliver tailored solutions based on AMD SoC platforms, supporting customers across industries and around the world.

Direct Collaboration with AMD Experts
Our close collaboration with AMD Embedded teams gives us direct access to their engineering, sales, support, and marketing groups at the factory level. This connection allows us to translate the latest AMD technologies into practical solutions for customers.

Backed by the expertise of AMD, and combined with our own development capabilities, we’ve successfully delivered projects across sectors including medical technology, (aero)space & defense, and industrial systems.

Early access to advanced technologies
One of the other advantages of our Premier Embedded Partnership with AMD is the early access we have to the latest AMD SoC and FPGA technologies. This means we can start integrating new features before they hit the broader market. Which is definitely beneficial for our customers as it results in: faster time-to-market, access to the latest capabilities and a competitive edge in their industry.

Multidisciplinary TOPIC design team
Another important aspect is that the embedded SOC devices of AMD are highly versatile and bring various design disciplines together on a single die. Enabling all these features on a single chip requires a multi-disciplinary software/FPGA design team as well as board design skills of the highest quality. Often, customers do not have all these particular expertise or the capacity in-house.

Within TOPIC, we support all these disciplines with a team of specialists enabling these technologies for customers' development at the application level. Resulting in an optimal customized solution.

"The collaboration between AMD and TOPIC Embedded Systems has significantly accelerated product development for our mutual customers. By leveraging AMD Embedded Computing technologies and TOPIC expertise in embedded systems, together we deliver innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of the market. This partnership exemplifies our joint commitment to empowering customers with the technologies and support they need to succeed." – Rhett Whatcott, Director – Global Training & Enablement | AMD
