Recognize Teknology AMD Fusion APU

Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) or accelerated processor unit is a processor which integrates AMD CPU (Central Processing Unit) and the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) into a single chip Radeon. So there are two 'brains' in 1 chip chip.

Accelerated processor or APU is already more than a year was launched by AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) sometime in early 2011. The processor known as the AMD Fusion Family of Accelerated Processing Units (AMD Fusion APU).
AMD Fusion APU combines in a chip, the size is smaller than the coin denomination Rp50, technology multi-core CPU (x86) graphics engine with DirectX 11 capabilities, high-definition video acceleration block, and a high-speed bus that deliver data between variety of cores in a processor.

Transformation of two pieces of chips (CPU and GPU) into a single chip chip provides three benefits to consumers, including:
  • Machines become more durable batteries
  • Design circuit boards can be more efficient which impact on the overall price of the machine
  • With the same price range, engine-powered APU provides multimedia features are quite abundant.


The first series APU Processor from AMD is the AMD Brazos (C and E Series). Shortly thereafter AMD later released APU for mainstream classes, known as Llano CODEC (A Series) that combine up to four x86 CPU cores with support for DirectX 11, which is equivalent discrete-level graphics capabilities and up to 400 Radeon cores along with a special HD video processing on a single chip .

In 2012 already preparing the next generation AMD A Series APU called Trinity which is the continued development of the Llano. AMD Trinity preferred platform for mobile or notebook.
