AMD Am2900. Am2900 is a family of integrated circuits (ICs) created in 1975 by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). They were constructed with bipolar devices, in a bit-slice topology, and were designed to be used as modular components each representing a different aspect of a computer control unit (CCU). By using the bit slicing technique, the Am2900 ...
Am29000. The Am29000 family are 32-bit RISC microprocessors. The Am29000 was a Berkeley RISC, register window design similar to the Sun SPARC. Am29000 32-bit RISC microprocessor, 4-stage Pipeline, 512-byte BTC (branch target cache) Am29005 32-bit RISC microprocessor with neither (functional) MMU nor BTC.
The Athlon 64 X2 is the first native dual-core desktop central processing unit (CPU) designed by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). It was designed from scratch as native dual-core by using an already multi-CPU enabled Athlon 64, joining it with another functional core on one die, and connecting both via a shared dual-channel memory controller/north bridge and additional control logic.
The five-volume set of the x86-64 Architecture Programmer's Manual, as published and distributed by AMD in 2002. x86-64 (also known as x64, x86_64, AMD64, and Intel 64) [note 1] is a 64-bit version of the x86 instruction set, first announced in 1999. It introduced two new modes of operation, 64-bit mode and compatibility mode, along with a new ...
Unified Video Decoder. Unified Video Decoder (UVD, previously called Universal Video Decoder) is the name given to AMD 's dedicated video decoding ASIC. There are multiple versions implementing a multitude of video codecs, such as H.264 and VC-1. UVD was introduced with the Radeon HD 2000 Series and is integrated into some of AMD's GPUs and ...
The Athlon 64 is a ninth-generation, AMD64 -architecture microprocessor produced by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), released on September 23, 2003. [1] It is the third processor to bear the name Athlon, and the immediate successor to the Athlon XP. [2] The Athlon 64 was the second processor to implement the AMD64 architecture (after the Opteron ...
AMD Athlon (early version), a technically different but fully compatible x86 implementation. x86 (also known as 80x86[3] or the 8086 family[4]) is a family of complex instruction set computer (CISC) instruction set architectures [a] initially developed by Intel based on the 8086 microprocessor and its 8-bit-external-bus variant, the 8088.
Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) [3] is a local computer bus for attaching hardware devices in a computer and is part of the PCI Local Bus standard. The PCI bus supports the functions found on a processor bus but in a standardized format that is independent of any given processor 's native bus. Devices connected to the PCI bus appear to ...
