EFIKA

EFIKA

EFIKA is a small single board Power Architecture based computer manufactured by Genesi.

It is based on a 400 MHz Freescale MPC5200B SoC-processor and adds 44-pin 2.5" IDE, USB, serial port, stereo audio in/out, 100 Mbit/s Ethernet, 33/66 MHz PCI port and 128 MB DDR RAM. EFIKA uses an Open Firmware based CHRP compliant firmware with a special x86/BIOS emulator providing support for standard graphics cards on an AGP riser slot. The motherboard has a non-standard form factor, 118 mm x 153 mm x 38 mm small.

Due to its small size, RoHS compliance and energy efficient nature (drawing less than 20 W with a harddrive and a graphics card, typically less than 10 W during most usage scenarios), the EFIKA is considered very environmentally friendly.

An EFIKA computer can run a variety of operating systems among Linux (Gentoo, openSUSE, Debian and CRUX PPC), MorphOS, OpenSolaris and QNX. It is sometimes called "EFIKA 5K2", since it uses the PowerPC e300 core based MPC5200B processor.

On 10 September 2007, Genesi announced that they are developing a new version of the EFIKA based on the Freescale MPC5121e [" [http://www.genesi-usa.com/press.php?date=20070910 Le Roi est Mort. Vive le Roi!] " September 10, 2007. Retrieved on February 2, 2008.] , which will features on-board PowerVR MBX video and an additional 200 MHz fully-programmable RISC core, although it still has the same e300 core running at 400 MHz.

"Efika" is a word in Esperanto meaning "efficient".
