|description=AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) is a prominent semiconductor company founded on May 1, 1969, by Jerry Sanders and seven colleagues from Fairchild Semiconductor. The company designs and manufactures a wide range of computing and graphics products, including processors, graphics cards, and related technologies for various markets such as personal computers, gaming consoles, and data centers.

Some key events in AMD's history include the introduction of the AMD K5 processor in 1996, marking its entry into the x86 processor market, and the release of the Athlon processor in 1999, which was the first seventh-generation x86 processor. In 2006, AMD acquired ATI Technologies, a major graphics chip manufacturer, expanding its product lineup to include the Radeon series of graphics cards.

In recent years, under the leadership of CEO Lisa Su, who took the helm in 2014, AMD has made significant strides with its Ryzen and EPYC processors, known for their high performance and efficiency. The company's Ryzen processors have gained a strong foothold in the consumer market, while EPYC processors have become popular in the data center market. AMD is headquartered in Santa Clara, California, and has a significant global presence, with offices and facilities around the world.
