AMD Reveals New Mobile Technologies

Posted by CowboyNeal on Thursday May 17, 2007 @09:11PM from the speedy-names-for-on-the-go dept.

MojoKid writes "AMD disclosed a few details today regarding their upcoming mobile platform technologies, codenamed 'Griffin' and 'Puma'. According to AMD, Griffin will be manufactured at 65nm and it will feature a new mobile optimized on-die Northbridge with a power optimized DDR2 memory controller, HyperTransport 3 connectivity, and larger L2 caches than current designs. The new memory controller should also extend battery life thanks to new power saving features, that allow the controller to operate on a separate power plane and at a lower voltage than the execution cores."

And what about PC-on-a-chip? by Raven737 · 2007-05-17 21:58 · Score: 5, Interesting

I wonder how long before AMD makes a PC-on-a-chip, like VIA did.
Now with ATI they should have all the required components for that (good graphics controller etc).

I am thinking ultra ultra portable =)
