After Nvidia's failed acquisition of Arm, amD's successful acquisition of Xilinx seemed to be another blow to Nvidia. After all, after the success of this acquisition, AMD has more strength to fight against Nvidia, and will also have more strength to fight against Intel, after all, CPU + GPU + FPGA may be the future of chips, AMD is also currently a company that has gathered these three "suits" at the same time.
Most people know CPUs, GPUs, so what is an FPGA? FPGA is a chip that can be programmed to change the internal structure, the full English name is Field Programmable Gate Array, that is, field programmable gate array, simply speaking, FPGA is a hardware reconfigurable architecture, which can allow users to get the logic they want in a short period of time and at low cost, which is why FPGAs have been used as a small batch replacement for dedicated chips (ASICs) for many years. The programmable FPGA technology is the United States Xilinx company invented in the early 1980s, Xilinx (Xilinx) is also the inventor of programmable SoC and ACAP, xilinx is already the FPGA industry leader and the world's leading provider of programmable logic complete solutions.
As far as the current market is concerned, AMD can compete with Intel in terms of CPU and NVIDIA in terms of graphics cards, but Intel has the advantage of X86 architecture, NVIDIA has the advantage of GPU software and hardware, and it is not realistic to completely surpass Intel and NVIDIA. AmD's acquisition of Xilinx (Xilinx) in addition to improving product performance to fight NVIDIA and Intel, but also through Xilinx's existing product line and leading FPGAs, adaptive SoCs, artificial intelligence engines, software expertise, etc. to further expand their field of territory, thereby bringing more super high-performance and adaptive computing solutions, and then in the cloud computing, edge computing and intelligent device market to seize a larger share, then AMD to become the industry's first is not impossible. That's the real AMD YES.
