Since the launch of the Zen microarchitecture, Ryzen and Athlon APU's have released to the global market as Raven Ridge on the DDR4 platform, after Bristol Ridge a year prior.ĪMD also supplied semi-custom APU's for consoles starting with the release of Sony PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Xbox One eighth generation video game consoles.

The third generation Kaveri for high performance devices were launched in January 2014, while Kabini and Temash for low-power devices were announced in the summer of 2013. The second generation Trinity for high-performance and Brazos-2 for low-power devices were announced in June 2012. APUs are general purpose processors that feature integrated graphics processors (IGPs).ĪMD announced the first generation APUs, Llano for high-performance and Brazos for low-power devices in January 2011. The AMD Accelerated Processing Unit ( APU), formerly known as Fusion, is the marketing term for a series of 64-bit microprocessors from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), designed to act as a central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) on a single die.
