FOR OPEN SOURCE FIRMWARE
DEVELOPMENT SOLUTIONS FOR
AMD PROCESSOR SYSTEMS.
GREATER CUSTOMIZATION
• Extremely fast boot times — Sage
has sub-second boot times in
advance of loading operating
systems.
• Power efficiency — SageBIOS
BSP helps you achieve the
extremes of performance
• Real-time performance
— we disable extraneous
code to eliminate any drag
on performance, ensuring
processors operate in lock step
with bandwidth and reduce
latency to memory
• Small final binary size — we
optimize code for hardware
savings and increased security
• Unique feature sets
REDUCE YOUR TIME TO MARKET
• SageBIOS BSPs are rigorously
tested and designed for your
specification.

In the time it takes to open a laptop, your computer should
be ready to go. That’s the thinking behind firmware solutions
at Sage Electronic Engineering. Sage provides customized
Board Support Packages marrying open source (including
coreboot®) solutions with proprietary software, creating
streamlined boot solutions that also create flexibility in
application.
As an AMD Embedded Software, Solution and Tool Partners
Sage works with emerging AGESA source code and binaries
for new processors, APUs and SoCs to enable open source
development for AMD product families. Sage supports
AGESA development to make sure that your solution is as
close to the silicon as possible.
