AMD opens second facility in Hyderabad

HYDERABAD, INDIA: AMD today launched its second R&D center in Hyderabad.

The new center will house the company’s R&D team focusing on next generation AMD graphics and computing solutions.

AMD’s president and chief operating officer Dirk Meyer inaugurated the 30,000 sq. ft center in the presence of Dasaradha Gude, vice president and managing director of AMD’s Hyderabad R&D center.

The Hyderabad R&D team works on VLSI and embedded system design for consumer electronics. The center includes AMD’s Center of Excellence for Audio Technology and has designed multimedia products for leading companies in consumer electronics, including mobile phones, game consoles, LCD panels and TV tuner cards.

It also contributes to AMD’s latest graphics and computing processors. AMD will continue R&D operations in the original Hyderabad facility as well.

“AMD’s inauguration of our fourth R&D facility in India and second in Hyderabad is recognition of the caliber of talent and design expertise that resides within the country,” said Meyer. “The sheer creativity and energy of the teams in India gives me confidence that we have our resources in the right place globally.”

“The original Hyderabad center has been working on leading edge technology over the last four years. Those designs are in many of the most popular consumer electronic devices today,” said Gude. “We are very proud of our achievements in very high-end, intensive design work. The new office showcases how we have grown and will continue to contribute to AMD in the future.”
