1998 research cohort / CPU
AMD · model variant
Candidate · no owner discrepancy decisionAMD-K6 processor 300 MHz for mobile applications is recorded in the 1998 CPU research cohort under AMD. The current display name and classification are normalization proposals.
AMD addresses higher mobile processor speed, mobile applications, and matching the market's highest-speed mobile processor
Intended users: OEMs and mobile PC users
Engineering response: 300 MHz AMD-K6 mobile processor
AMD press release dated October 6 1998 filed as Form 8-K exhibit · lines 68-75
AMD states the mobile application and speed-positioning rationale directly.
Filing does not provide detailed engineering response or independent test configuration.
Comparable benchmark evidence has not been established for this record. Missing results do not imply poor performance.
The year above is a research-cohort label. Announcement, production, shipment and retail availability are distinct events.
Quarter-level introduction supports a candidate proposal but lacks shipment/channel evidence and exact date.
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. · lines 68-75; quarter ended 1998-09-27 in filing table
Filed AMD release states during the quarter it introduced a 300 MHz AMD-K6 processor for mobile applications.
Exact date, first shipment, package/orderable identity.
No owner discrepancy decision is recorded. This does not mean there are no unresolved issues.
The mobile 300 MHz AMD-K6 record is not documented as an AMD-K6-2 speed variant. Its mobile AMD-K6 wording must remain separate from the AMD-K6-2 family and speed-grade hierarchy.
Audit source · lines 68-75
AMD states that it introduced a 300 MHz AMD-K6 processor for mobile applications during Q3 without calling it AMD-K6-2.
Follow-up: Do not assign AMD-K6-2 parentage or May family timing to the mobile AMD-K6 record; retain a separate family/category label pending product-identity evidence.
These notes preserve the state at intake. Later verification is shown under Release evidence above; an original note saying verification had not occurred is not the current assessment.

Typed events: AMD's 1998-10-06 press release filed 1998-10-23 says during the quarter it introduced a 300MHz AMD-K6 processor for mobile applications. Precision is quarter (Q3 1998); first shipment and component/system availability are not stated. Preserve AMD-K6/300 wording and mobile segment.
