<<Has anyone sat down and calculated how many 162 sq mm K6s you can get from an 8" wafer (app. theo. 190 chips) . AMD's capacity is 6300 wafers/week. >>

Since no K6 wafers exist yet, I am guessing 8 inche wafer holds from 100-120 K6 dies depending on a few variables. Assuming 40% yield (very good yield), and AMD only make K6 chips, you have 6300*0.4*100= 25200 k6 chips/week.

Where did you get the number of 6300 wafers/week?
