  AMD Buys Nat Semi Geode Chip
Time: 14:29 EST/19:29 GMT | News Source: The Register | Posted By: Steven Chalfont

AMD is buying National Semiconductor's Geode x86-compatible microprocessor and system-on-a-chip platform.

Nat Semi began hawking Geode back in February, primarily as a cost-cutting measure, though in part, we suspect, because the company's grand dreams of a future where we all use information appliances rather than PCs failed to materialise.

On that back of that plan, the company shut down its PC processor subsidiary Cyrix in 1999.

Today, the Geode family is lead by the GX2 chip, a 32-bit x86 CPU with MMX and 3DNow! support, an integrated 1600 x 1200 LCD controller, 64-bit DDR SDRAM controller, a maximum clock speed of 366MHz and a power draw of under 1W.
