AMD Athlon™ Processor Overview
The AMD Athlon™ processor is among the world's most powerful engines
for PC computing, and represents the industry's first seventh-generation
x86 microarchitecture. The AMD Athlon processor family is designed to
power the next generation in x86 computing platforms. It meets the
computation-intensive requirements of cutting-edge software applications
running on high-end desktop systems, workstations, and servers. All AMD
Athlon processors are now produced using 0.18-micron process technology.
Business users who work with image processing, digital
content creation, CAD/CAE, scientific applications and other
computationally-demanding software will benefit from the tremendous
processing power of AMD Athlon processor-based systems. Computing
enthusiasts who want the performance and clock speeds required to run
the latest 3D gaming, entertainment, Internet, and personal productivity
software will demand desktop systems powered by the AMD Athlon processor
Improved Performance for Cutting-Edge Applications
The AMD Athlon processor's seventh-generation microarchitecture,
including a high-bandwidth system bus and recently incorporated on-die
L2 cache* , enable it to attain outstanding levels of performance. Plus,
the AMD Athlon processor delivers industry-leading integer, floating
point, and 3D multimedia performance for x86 platforms.
*While all AMD Athlon processors currently being
manufactured by AMD feature 256K of full-speed, on-die L2 cache memory,
previous versions, without on-die L2 cache, may still be commercially
available in some computer systems. Ask your computer manufacturer for
details and refer to processor
benchmarks for information regarding the performance of the original
AMD Athlon processor.
The AMD Athlon processor provides exceptional
processing power on real-world, mainstream Microsoft® Windows®
compatible software, as well as computation-intensive applications for
high-end desktops and workstations. These high-end workstation
applications include digital photo editing, digital video, commercial 3D
modeling, image compression, soft DVD, CAD, and speech recognition .
The Most Powerful Multimedia Experience in an x86
Platform
The AMD Athlon processor's ultimate performance and next-generation
features combine to give end users an outstanding computing experience,
whether running standard productivity software or the latest
leading-edge consumer and commercial applications.
Computing enthusiasts get exceptional performance for
Internet applications, digital imaging, 3D gaming, and personal
creativity software. The AMD Athlon processor's advanced multimedia
architecture and 3D technology deliver rich images, fast frame rates,
and accurate theater-quality sound. The revolutionary 200MHz system bus
allows users to quickly and easily process Internet content from DSL/cable
modems and digital video imaging devices.
Business users get remarkable performance from AMD
Athlon processor-based systems. Popular programs for desktop publishing,
database, accounting, and other demanding business applications execute
at fast speeds, resulting in exceptional levels of productivity. The
enormous power of the AMD Athlon processor's visual computing
capabilities allows users to unleash their creativity and deliver high
impact Web designs and other dynamic communications to effectively reach
and influence customers.
Tomorrow's Technology Today
The seventh-generation AMD Athlon processor is based on the industry's
most advanced x86 microarchitecture. The following features and
capabilities combine to give users of AMD Athlon processor-based systems
an extraordinary computing experience, as well as the confidence that
their systems are designed to meet their computing needs for years to
come.
- Microarchitecture: The AMD Athlon processor
features a superpipelined, nine-issue superscalar microarchitecture
optimized for high clock frequencies. The AMD Athlon processor
contains a total of nine execution pipelines: three for address
calculations, three for integer calculations, and three for
executing x87 (floating point), 3DNow!™ and MMX™ instructions.
- System Bus:The AMD Athlon processor's system
bus is the first 200MHz system bus for x86 platforms, as well as the
fastest x86 processor bus available, delivering up 50 percent more
peak bandwidth than any other x86 system bus. The AMD Athlon system
bus is designed for scalable multiprocessing and leverages
high-performance Alpha™ EV6 bus technology to enable exceptional
system performance.
- Floating Point Engine: The AMD Athlon
processor includes the first fully pipelined, superscalar floating
point engine for x86 platforms. The resulting floating point
capability is the most powerful ever delivered in an x86 processor.
- Enhanced 3DNow!™ Technology: The AMD
Athlon processor's enhanced 3DNow! technology takes 3D multimedia
performance to incredible heights and builds on the 21 instructions
of AMD's original 3DNow! technology-the first x86 instruction set to
use superscalar SIMD floating point techniques. Enhanced 3DNow!
technology adds 24 new instructions-19 to improve MMX integer math
calculations and enhance data movement for Internet streaming
applications and 5 DSP extensions for soft modem, soft ADSL, Dolby
Digital, and MP3 applications.
- Cache Architecture: The AMD Athlon processor
boasts a 384K total full-speed on-chip system cache including 128K
L1 cache--four times that of Intel's Pentium® III processor--and
256K on-chip full-speed L2 cache. This performance-enhancing cache
design boosts overall system performance.
Processor
Architecture/Technology Competitive Comparison
Powering the Next Generation in Computing Platforms
The combination of exceptional performance, high clock frequencies,
performance-enhancing cache memory, impressive bus bandwidth, and a
reliable design makes the AMD Athlon processor family a powerful choice
for high-end desktop systems, workstations, and servers.
The AMD Athlon processor offers the peace-of-mind
reliability required by enterprise users and IT managers. The AMD Athlon
processor's system bus is also designed for scalable multiprocessing,
with the number of AMD Athlon processors in a multiprocessor system
determined by chipset implementation.
High-performance AMD Athlon processor-based platforms
provide an exceptional level of performance and data-movement bandwidth
for computation-intensive software used in such challenging applications
as digital imaging, Internet content development, enterprise computing,
CAD/CAE, scientific/technical calculations, and 3D gaming

point engine for x86 platforms. The resulting floating point
capability is the most powerful ever delivered in an x86 processor.
- Enhanced 3DNow!™ Technology: The AMD
Athlon processor's enhanced 3DNow! technology takes 3D multimedia
performance to incredible heights and builds on the 21 instructions
of AMD's original 3DNow! technology-the first x86 instruction set to
use superscalar SIMD floating point techniques. Enhanced 3DNow!
technology adds 24 new instructions-19 to improve MMX integer math
calculations and enhance data movement for Internet streaming
applications and 5 DSP extensions for soft modem, soft ADSL, Dolby
Digital, and MP3 applications.
- Cache Architecture: The AMD Athlon processor
boasts a 384K total full-speed on-chip system cache including 128K
L1 cache--four times that of Intel's Pentium® III processor--and
256K on-chip full-speed L2 cache. This performance-enhancing cache
design boosts overall system performance.
Processor
Architecture/Technology Competitive Comparison
Powering the Next Generation in Computing Platforms
