唔知係咪叫好事

點會係壞事?

interface, cell lib 同 analong 轉晒做用 synopsys IP 喎。話得 interface，估計所有同 serdes 有關係既 (pcie/ht/sata/usb) 都會轉晒過檔。另外同製程相關果堆 cell lib/analog 都轉鬼晒去 synopsys，專心做架構/high-level IP/SOC 設計咁既款。

雖然話 synopsys 都係 leading-edge，「自家野」有時聽落總係覺得好 D。

佢話可以交換, 唔一定用喎
同埋睇落係幫AMD做automation, 而唔係outsource automation

AMD的SATA同USB都唔係特別好

不過佢話"complementary standard IP components", 講真真係唔知包括咩

what AMD licensed it seems. cell libs and analog IP. the press release has touched a bit on this.

我睇完佢portfolio之後, AMD似係想要mobile storage controller, ethernet controller同埋FinFET library

the most important among all are logic libraries and analog IP. every soc needs them. if AMD get rid of ("transfer") the R&D of these two, it means AMD would have even less engineers working directly close to the gates of mgft processes. maybe just the process-specific custom marcos. :/

sorry for using Eng as I'm typing on phone

呢類core logic, 其實AMD唔會用最新的process做
你望下Hudson / Bolton都只係65nm就知

咁睇法, 可能AMD唔太滿意Jaguar的I/O

唔單只係 I/O，講緊全粒 chip 用既 standard cell library 呀 SRAM 呀 PLL... 佢話 license 埋 logic lib/memory compiler on 14/10nm FinFET 嘛，仲要轉移埋自己果份俾 synopsys 兼成 team R&D 轉過去。

當然亦我可能係我諗多左。但份 press 似係咁既意思
