Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is expected to migrate all of its CPU production to 90nm silicon-on-insulator (SOI) processes in early 2005, according to sources at Taiwan motherboard makers, citing AMD’s latest roadmap.
AMD also plans to release its next-generation Sempron processors based on the Palermo core at a 90nm process in the first half of 2005.
AMD also aims to ramp up output of its Athlon 64 processors to 65% of its total CPU production in the second quarter of 2005, with the proportion of 939-pin chips higher than the 754-pin parts, the sources said, citing the AMD roadmap.
AMD will also unveil its dual-core chips in the second half of 2005 as planned, matching Intel’s roadmap for dual-core CPUs, the sources noted.
