Intersil Wins More than Half of AMD Athlon Motherboard Designs; 7/24/0 10:33 (New York) re:close to 80 does that mean that 40% of new designs are athlon-based? re:soon be introducing does that mean commercial sector? re:require the high current capabilities<i/> just for Paul so he can make fun of athlon Power Management Chip Set Ensures Power to Advanced Microprocessor Designs IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 24, 2000--Intersil (Nasdaq:ISIL), a leader in Power Management solutions for desktop PCs, file servers and portable information appliances, has revealed that its multiphase family of products are the Power Management devices of choice among Advanced Micro Device (AMD) motherboard manufacturers. According to its shipment records, Intersil's flexible, modular chipsets can be found accompanying more than half of the AMD microprocessor-based central processing units (CPUs) currently manufactured. At present, AMD Athlon(TM) CPUs are the only processors that require the high current capabilities of Intersil's multiphase family. Intersil's multiphase Power Management device shipments to AMD motherboard manufacturers during the previous two quarters are equivalent to more than half of the total Athlon CPUs shipped by AMD during the same period. Intersil multiphase controllers have also recently been included in AMD's reference designs, establishing Intersil's multiphase solution as a power solution of choice for Athlon processors. "AMD Athlon processors continue to power next-generation computing platforms," said Rick Furtney, vice president and general manager of Intersil's Power Management business. "Major computer manufacturers will soon be introducing Athlon processor-systems that deliver performance for next-generation applications. The fact that more than half of all AMD Athlon-based computer designs incorporate Intersil multiphase Power Management devices is a testament to the performance value of these products." Surveys conducted by Intersil and a distributor at a recent Computex tradeshow in Taipei showed that close to 80 percent of new motherboards displayed included Intersil multiphase devices.
