Product Overview
The GX1-300B-85-2.0 is a low-power x86 embedded processor from National Semiconductor (later acquired by AMD) Geode GX1 series. Running at 300 MHz with 2.0V core voltage, it delivers full legacy x86 instruction compatibility, integrating on-chip graphics and SDRAM memory controller to simplify board design. Optimized for fanless passive cooling, it operates reliably in dusty, humid and vibration-prone environments. Housed in 37mm×37mm SPGA-320 grid array, it is a stable long-term solution for industrial control, thin client and legacy embedded systems maintenance.
Core Advantages
Native x86 Architecture Compatibility
Supports standard x86 instruction structures seamlessly, allowing developers to execute standard operational operating systems, embedded industrial loops, and legacy application software without complex emulation layers.
Fanless Thermal and Power Efficiency
Operates cleanly within an aggressive power budget at 2.0V core limits, enabling compact, sealed, fanless system enclosures that minimize mechanical point failures.
Integrated Graphic and Memory Controllers
Natively features an on-chip display acceleration pipeline and integrated memory control bus, significantly lowering motherboard complexity and discrete peripheral component count.
Exceptional Long-Term Reliability
Built using highly resilient silicon fabrication rules that ensure long continuous runtimes under extended industrial environments, shielding systems from premature thermal decay.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is your currently available stock of the GX1-300B-85-2.0 100% genuine and original?
A: Yes, we guarantee that all GX1-300B-85-2.0 microprocessors in our inventory are 100% brand-new, factory-original products. Every single item lot passes strict internal Entry Quality Control and is dispatched in secure factory-approved anti-static protective packaging to ensure absolute safety during transport.
Q2: Can this microprocessor run standard Linux distributions or Windows embedded operating systems natively?
A: Yes. Because the Geode GX1 architecture provides true native x86 compatibility, it supports classic operating systems such as Windows Embedded, Windows CE, legacy MS-DOS environments, and tailored Linux kernels directly without software compilation translation layers.
Q3: What does the “2.0” suffix denote in this specific Geode microprocessor part number?
A: The “2.0” designation explicitly references the chip’s core operational power supply requirements 2.0V. This version is specifically tuned to maximize high clock frequencies up to 300 MHz while strictly adhering to a highly restrictive thermal dissipation envelope.
Q4: How can our engineering division acquire older hardware reference documentation or request a large volume price breakdown?
A: Please input your design parameters and required quantities into our Quick Inquiry form found directly on this web page. Our specialized industrial computing support team will evaluate your parameters and follow up with complete technical assets and customized commercial quotes within 24 hours.
