What is AMR?
| Audio Modem Riser |
|
Audio Modem Riser is an Intel specification that defines a new architecture for the design of motherboards. AMR lets manufacturers create motherboards without analog I/O functions. Instead, these functions are placed on a separate card with the codec chip which plugs in perpendicular to the motherboard so that the motherboard and "riser" card form a right angle. Separating the analog I/O functions from the motherboard means higher audio quality and reduced production delays. Prior to the AMR specification, motherboard analog I/O functions went through a lengthy FCC and international telecom certification process. |
