AMD today officially opened the Shanghai Research and Development Center (SRDC), a multi-million dollar research and development facility driving next-generation AMD processor-powered platform innovation through increased technology partner and customer collaboration, the company announced.

Initially, the SRDC's engineering staff will focus on the development of AMD's next-generation mobile platforms, but will also provide an important role in the validation and testing of AMD's broad range of current and future microprocessors.

The new facility is located in the Zhang Jiang technology complex, and AMD plans to employ hundreds of staff, making it AMD's largest system design hub outside of the US, the chipmaker said.

The opening of SRDC will benefit AMD's key OEM and ODM customers in the region including such as Lenovo, Tongfang, Flocity, Hewlett Packard (HP), IBM, Sun, Acer, Asustek Computer, BenQ, Fujitsu and many others, AMD said.
