Namuhla ekuseni bekungekho zimpawu zenkinga. Inkampani ye-AMD ngamafuphi ibike ukuthi ngemva kweminyaka eminingi engekho, u-Rick Bergman ubuyela ezinhlwini zabaphathi, esebone βizikhathi ezingcono kakhuluβ zophiko lwezithombe ze-AMD ngokushesha ngemva kokuthenga izimpahla ze-ATI Technologies. Masikhumbule ukuthi izibopho zikaBergman njengesekela likamongameli omkhulu we-AMD weComputing and Graphics zizofaka phakathi ukuphathwa kwebhizinisi okuphelele kokwenza imikhiqizo yemakethe yabathengi, izixazululo zezithombe kanye nemikhiqizo βeyezifisoβ. Ezokugcina, njengoba sazi, zithandwa ngokungangabazeki phakathi kwabathuthukisi be-game console.
resource uthola isizathu sokusho ukuthi ukumema u-Rick Bergman "embuthanweni wangaphakathi" ka-Lisa Su kuyingxenye yohlelo lwakhe lokulungiselela ozongena esikhundleni. Ngokusho komthombo, i-CEO yamanje ye-AMD ilungiselela "ukukhula komsebenzi" wakhe esakhiweni sokuphatha se-IBM Corporation. Okokuqala, uLisa Su kusolakala ukuthi uzothatha esinye sezikhundla eziseduze nenhloko yamanje ye-IBM, u-Ginni Rometty, bese esikhundleni sakhe njengosihlalo webhodi labaqondisi, umongameli kanye ne-CEO ye-corporation. Laba besifazane bebhizinisi bahlanganiswe ukufana komlando - akekho noyedwa kwabamele ubulili obuhle ngaphambi kwabo obambe izikhundla eziphezulu zokuphatha ezinkampanini zabo. U-Rommety ubehola i-IBM kusukela ngoJanuwari 2012; umsebenzi wakhe ku-blue giant waqala emuva ngo-1981 njengonjiniyela wezinhlelo.
Umthombo awusho ukuthi yiziphi izifiso uLisa Su angaba nazo ekuphishekeleni isikhundla sokuba yinhloko ye-IBM. Lolu lwazi ngokwalo ludinga ukuqinisekiswa okucophelelayo, futhi ngokuqinisekile ukusabela okusheshayo kwenkonzo yabezindaba ye-AMD esemthethweni kuzolandela ukushicilelwa kwalezi zindaba. Ngokusho kwe-WCCFTech, u-Rick Bergman uzonikezwa izinsuku ezingaba ngu-90 ukuthi azivumelanise nesimo sokuba iphini likamongameli omkhulu we-AMD, kanti uLisa Su uzoshiya isikhundla sakhe ekwindla yalo nyaka. Uma ngempela ekwenza lokhu, khona-ke isikhathi sizoba sihle ngokwedumela lebhizinisi - i-AMD izuze impumelelo enkulu ngaphansi kobuholi bayo, ikhipha izigaba ezintathu zemikhiqizo ethuthukisiwe ye-2019-nm ngo-7: amaphrosesa aphakathi kwamakhompyutha namaseva, kanye izixazululo zehluzo zengxenye yemidlalo yesizukulwane se-Navi. Ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu, i-Radeon VII nayo ingabalwa phakathi kwemikhiqizo emisha ye-7nm yalo nyaka, nakuba umjikelezo wokuphila waleli khadi levidiyo elingavamile uthembisa ukuthi uzoba mfushane ngendlela engakaze ibonwe.
Kuleli sonto, ama-processor we-7nm e-Rome azoqala, okuzovumela i-AMD ukuthi iqinise kakhulu isikhundla sayo engxenyeni lapho i-Intel icishe yabusa kakhulu eminyakeni yamuva. "Ukulungiselela" okunjalo kokushintshela ku-IBM nakho kuyisici esivumayo ku-Lisa Su. Kufanele kukhunjulwe ukuthi i-IBM ne-AMD babambisane iminyaka eminingi ekuthuthukisweni kobuchwepheshe obusha be-lithographic, futhi lapho izimpahla zokukhiqiza ze-AMD zidluliselwa ku-GlobalFoundries, umsebenzi othela izithelo waqhubeka. I-IBM yaze yakwazi ukuthengisa amabhizinisi ayo okukhiqiza amaphrosesa ku-GlobalFoundries. Nokho, eminyakeni yamuva, lo mkhiqizi waqala ukulahla izimpahla, kodwa lokhu akuzange kuthinte ubuhlobo phakathi kwe-IBM ne-AMD.
Igunya likaLisa Su emphakathini wemboni likhule kakhulu ezinyangeni ezedlule. Waqashelwa njengomunye wabesifazane bebhizinisi abanethonya kakhulu kulo nyaka, futhi waqokwa njengosihlalo wenhlangano yabakhiqizi be-semiconductor ye-GSA, futhi kunzima ukucabanga imicimbi eminingi yemboni ngaphandle kokuba khona kukaLisa Su. Isibonelo, unikezwe udumo lokuvula i-Computex 2019, futhi emcimbini wale nyanga we-Hot Chips, uzoshiyelana inkundla no-VP we-TSMC Wobunjiniyela ukuze akhulume mayelana nezitayela embonini ye-semiconductor. Isifiso sokuqhubekela phambili nokuthuthukisa singokwemvelo kumholi waleli zinga, ngakho-ke uma izinhloso ezichaziwe zenhloko ye-AMD ziqinisekiswa ekupheleni konyaka, umuntu akufanele amangale.
PS Ekhasini lakho ku U-Lisa Su uwaphikile la mahemuhemu, eqinisekisa ukwethembeka kwakhe ku-AMD. Wathembisa ukuthi izinto ezithakazelisa kakhulu zaziseza.
