The next-generation of AMD’s laptop processors
named Brazos 2.0 hav been designed as low voltage chips for thin and
light laptops which use 9 to 18 watts of power, in a similar vein to the
curret Brazos 1.0 chips. However the new Brazos 2.0 will support AMD’s
TurboCore technology, and sport a number of new features.
AMD
went on to explain that next year it will be launching a new series of
28nm chips, with the 3W “Tamesh” processor line replacing Hondo, and
“Kabini” replacing Brazos 2.0. The lower power Kabini processors chips
will be launched with optins for either dual or quad-core versions.
