AMD designs CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and adaptive SoCs across three segments—Data Center, Client and Gaming, and Embedded—serving cloud providers, enterprises, and embedded markets globally. A small number of customers account for a substantial portion of revenue; AMD's fabless model relies on TSMC for sub-7nm wafers and GlobalFoundries for larger nodes.
