Atom P-Series

The P-series SKU supposedly launched a year ago, but there are still no products. The C-series supposedly launched in 2017, and my recollection is that you couldn't really get products until 2019. Does anyone have any intelligence or insight regarding P-series server boards, e.g. from Supermicro?

They're not consumer or enterprise SKUs. Embedded only and generally meant for 5G wireless base stations. I wouldn't count on anything beyond an Atom version of this: E403-9D-16C-IPD2 | SuperServers | SuperServers | Products | Super Micro Computer, Inc.

Yeah, I see that now. I wonder what the market is for 24 core 5G base stations, LOL.

Is there a successor to the C-series for servers?

Latest would be the C3000 refresh (eg C3758R) that was released in Q2 2020. I don't think anything newer has been announced.

So they have not refreshed the 16-core part. Nice.

Thanks for the info!
