  • Abstract
    The 32 nm implementation of an AMD x86-64 core occupying 9.69 mm2 and containing more than 35 million transistors (excluding L2 cache), operates at frequencies >3 GHz. The core incorporates numerous design and power improvements to enable an operating range of 2.5 to 25 W and a zero-power gated state that make the core well-suited to a broad range of mobile and desktop products.
