Advanced Micro Devices

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is an American semiconductor company that designs CPUs, GPUs, and adaptive-computing products, including processors built on its Zen and RDNA architectures.

Ryzen: AMD’s brand of consumer CPUs for desktop and laptop computers. Ryzen is AMD’s best-known processor line for personal computers.
Jerry Sanders: An American engineer and entrepreneur who co-founded AMD and served as its chief executive for decades. Sanders led AMD through its early growth and its shift toward designing its own products.
Intel: An American semiconductor company that designs CPUs, GPUs, and other computing products. Intel is AMD’s longstanding rival in x86 processors for PCs and servers.
x86-64: A 64-bit extension of the x86 instruction-set architecture, developed by AMD and adopted widely across computing. AMD’s design became the dominant path for extending x86 beyond 32-bit computing.
EPYC: AMD’s brand of server CPUs for data centers and enterprise computing. EPYC applies AMD’s CPU designs to cloud, enterprise, and high-performance computing workloads.
Fairchild Semiconductor: An American semiconductor company whose engineers and executives founded many later technology firms. AMD was founded in 1969 by former employees of Fairchild Semiconductor.
Nvidia: An American technology company known for GPUs, AI accelerators, and related software. Nvidia competes with AMD in graphics cards and data-center accelerators.
Zen (microarchitecture): A family of AMD CPU microarchitectures used in Ryzen and EPYC processors. Zen’s launch in 2017 restored AMD as a strong competitor in desktop and server CPUs.
Radeon: AMD’s brand of graphics processors and graphics cards for consumer and professional markets. Radeon is the principal product family for AMD’s discrete graphics business.
AMD K5: AMD’s first internally designed x86-compatible processor, introduced in 1996. The K5 marked AMD’s move from supplying components toward original CPU design.
