AMD general at chip of 22nm of formal 2012 put into production

October 12, 2008

Will AMD catch up with Intel 45nm craft to force continuously 22nm? According to relevant report, yes. AMD and cloth of A of A couplet chief of a tribe plunge into compared ATIC to establish The Foundry Company to building the product line of circle of producible 22nm brilliant jointly, brilliant round factory predicts the Fab 4x of new York city in construction to be able to produce 22nm chip formally 2012.

Artful is, intel also will produce 22nm chip 2012, look the competition between AMD and Intel will grow in intensity.

The major move of AMD near future eventually can it competes in intense CPU industry in pant a little, in awaiting 22nm chip to control the process of Cheng, the factory still may meet the brilliant circle that is located in German Dresden produce 32nm chip for its.

According to the agreement, intel accredit AMD uses part of instruction of its X86 chip, and pay fixed patent fee to Intel as redound AMD. So are AMD and cloth of A of A couplet chief of a tribe plunged into whether to establish The Foundry Company to you can cause tort jointly than ATIC company? AMD spokesman Phil Hughes expresses in a mail: “Traded this to had considered (with Intel between) agreement of alternate patent accredit. Be at ease please, we can continue to value the intellectual property of Intel, also hope they can respect us likewise. Also hope they can respect us likewise..

Intel spokesman Chuck Mulloy says, intel is met the patent that ground of do one’s best protects him does not suffer any encroachment, and can continue to evaluate all sorts of possibility. He returns complement to say, intel hope AMD is announced thoroughly from 20 centuries seventies the whole accredit agreement since metaphase (have summary version) only at present.

Nevertheless Phil Hughes response says: “(accredit agreement) it is commercial file, we won’t make public a circumstance again or discuss this matter to media, this should be the lawyer’s job. This should be the lawyer’s job..
