AMD, or Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., is an American multinational semiconductor company with headquarters in Santa Clara, California. It creates computer processors and technologies related to them for the business and consumer markets.
Jerry Sanders and a group of other technology professionals established the business in 1969. Memory chips and other computer parts were the primary focus of AMD’s early offerings. The business later entered the microprocessor market, competing with Intel, which was its primary competitor in the sector.
Due in part to its strong position in the PC market and the success of its Athlon and Opteron processors, AMD experienced significant growth and success in the early 2000s. However, the company struggled to keep up with Intel in the race to produce processors that were faster and more powerful in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
Thanks to the success of its Ryzen processors, which were well-received by consumers and reviewers, AMD regained some of its market share at the end of the 2010s. Numerous computing devices, including personal computers, servers, laptops, and gaming consoles, make use of AMD’s processors. After GlobalFoundries was spun off in 2009, the company outsourced its manufacturing, or “went fabless,” even though it initially manufactured its own processors.
For servers, workstations, personal computers, and embedded system applications, AMD’s main products are microprocessors, motherboard chipsets, embedded processors, graphics processors, and FPGAs. Additionally, the company has announced plans to enter the high-performance computing market and has expanded into new markets like the gaming and data center markets.
