Computer motherboards often provide a connector to bring microphone and headphone signals to the computer's front panel. Intel provides a general specification for this process, but the signal assignments are different for both AC'97 and HD Audio headers. [11] The pin assignments for the AC'97 and HD Audio connectors are: [11]: 21, 22
In 2004, Intel released Intel High Definition Audio (HD Audio) which is a successor that is not backward compatible with AC'97. [2] HD Audio has the capability to define up to 15 output channels, but in practice most motherboards provide no more than 8 channels ( 7.1 surround sound ).
They introduced innovations such as modularized RAM chips, DVD (MPEG2) acceleration, notebook GPU card sockets, and "PowerPlay" power management technology. AMD recently announced DirectX 11-compatible versions of its mobile processors. [16] ATI CrossFire – This technology was ATI's response to NVIDIA's SLI platform. It allowed, by using a ...
The AMD Radeon HD 7000 series implements HDMI 1.4b. [181] In December 2010, it was announced that several computer vendors and display makers including Intel, AMD, Dell, Lenovo, Samsung, and LG would stop using LVDS (actually, FPD-Link) from 2013 and legacy DVI and VGA connectors from 2015, replacing them with DisplayPort and HDMI.

In November 2009, Intel agreed to pay AMD $1.25 billion as part of a deal to settle all outstanding legal disputes between the two companies. [9] [10] [11]That week, Andrew Cuomo, then the Attorney General of New York, who had access to the 200 million documents in discovery and 2,200 hours of witness depositions from the private lawsuit, filed another antitrust lawsuit under similar ...
High-resolution audio (high-definition audio or HD audio) is a term for audio files with greater than 44.1 kHz sample rate or higher than 16-bit audio bit depth. It commonly refers to 96 or 192 kHz sample rates. However, 44.1 kHz/24-bit, 48 kHz/24-bit and 88.2 kHz/24-bit recordings also exist that are labeled HD audio.
Data source: AMD. YOY = Year-over-year. EPS = earnings per share. AMD also profited from Intel's big blunders.Intel fell far behind TSMC in the process race.
In older Intel/AMD architectures the southbridge is usually linked to the northbridge, which in turn connected to the CPU. Circa 2004 and onward Intel architectures started to link southbridge directly to the CPU (e.g. via Direct Media Interface). Through the use of controller-integrated channel circuitry, the northbridge (or CPU itself) can ...
