Zen µarch | |
General Info |
Zen is the microarchitecture developed by AMD as a successor to both Excavator and Puma. Zen is an entirely new design, built from the ground up for optimal balance of performance and power capable of covering the entire computing spectrum from fanless notebooks to high-performance desktop computer. Zen is set to be released in early-2017. Zen is set to be eventually replaced by Zen+.
Contents
Etymology
Zen was picked by Michael Clark, AMD's senior fellow and lead architect. Zen was picked to represent the balance needed between the various competing aspects of a microprocessor - transistor allocation/die size, clock/frequency restriction, power limitations, and new instructions to implement.
Codenames
Core | C/T | Family | Target |
---|---|---|---|
Naples | 32/64 | High-end server multiprocessors | |
Snowy Owl | 16/32 | Mid-range server processors | |
Summit Ridge | 8/16 | Ryzen | High-end desktops & enthusiasts market |
Raven Ridge | 4/8 | Mainstream desktop & mobile processors with GPU |
Process Technology
Zen is planned to be manufactured on Global Foundries' 14 nm process. AMD's previous microarchitectures were based on 32 and 28 nanometer processes. The jump to 14 nm is part of AMD attempt to remain competitive against Intel (Both SkyLake and Kaby Lake are also manufactured on 14 nm although by 2017 Intel plans on moving on to Cannonlake and 10 nm process). The move to 14 nm will bring along related benefits of a smaller node such as reduced heat and power consumption for identical designs.
Release Dates
The first set of processors, as part of the Ryzen family is expected to be officially launched before the end of Q1 - likely mid-February 2017 before the Game Developer Conference (GDC).
Architecture
AMD Zen is an entirely new design from the ground up which introduces considerable amount of improvements and design changes over Excavator. Zen-based microprocessors will utilize AMD's Socket AM4 unified platform.
