AMD II Netbook/Tablet

At the opening of CES 2011, AMD will launch the Brazos Fusion Fusion platform, which includes the Zacate/Ontario APU processor and the Hudson chipset. It will focus on portable devices such as netbooks and tablet computers.

Also in the first quarter of 2011, AMD will begin internal testing of the second-generation platform, code-named "Deccan" (Degan River, India), of which two APU processors codenamed Krishna, Wichita, with 2-4 enhanced Bobcat architecture core, DX11 graphics core, production process has also progressed to 28nm, and continue to TSMC OEM, with chipset "Yuba" (Urba, California), but the details are unknown.

AMD plans to provide customers with samples of the Deccan platform at the end of the second quarter of 2011, and it will start mass production at the end of the year, and then officially release it in early 2012.

AMD had expressed no interest in the emergence of netbooks, but it was clearly impossible at the time to come up with the excuses of the corresponding platform products. With the birth of the Fusion APU, AMD is also focusing on the netbook and the popular tablet market, and has received support from many manufacturers. So far, Acer’s tablet, Acer, MSI, and Toshiba’s netbooks have all accepted the Brazos Fusion platform. We believe that more products will be seen at CES 2011.
