Re: Legerity spinoff

First two links on Google search of "legerity spinoff":

bizjournals.com
"Legerity produces analog and mixed-signal chips for voice and data networks." ... "Legerity, formed as a spinoff of Santa Clara, Calif.-based Advanced Micro Devices Inc. [NYSE: AMD], was purchased in 2000 by San Francisco-based Francisco Partners LP for about $375 million."

bizjournals.com
"Legerity was formed in July 2000 as a spinoff of Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Advanced Micro Devices Inc."

EDIT:

AMD Q3 2000 results:
amd.com
"The company's third-quarter results included a one-time gain of $336,899,000 resulting from the sale of the company's voice communications business (Legerity) during the quarter"

Regards,

JJ

P.S. Coincidentally 2000 Q3 is the last quarter that earnings data is included on AMD's website.

I think the PLD portion went to Lattice Semi, or possibly Actel.
