Release date of AMD cpus

Is there a chart which shows approximately when the different
models of Duron and Athlon processors were released?

I can't find anything like this on the AMD site.

This includes others (Intel, Via, etc) but it should do:

Umm yeah its on the site under the specific CPU.
under Product information, on the left there is "Processor Roadmap"

Very interesting chart, when you look at bus speeds
computers are little faster today than they were 10 years
ago.
I always wondered by my Sinclair Z80 (colour) seems
as good as a modern computer.
I wonder how much a Z80 cpu is these days, last I
heard was a £1 but they may have a rareity value now.

I dug around a bit and came across this useful web site
http://www.sandpile.org/impl/k7.htm
I copied the data listed there to an Excel spreadsheet so I can
sort by date or by processor speed or by processor family. I
reowrked it a l otto make it more readable. Here it is:

http://194.168.54.52/access.public/AMD_cpu.zip (7 KB)

Can anyone spot any inaccuracies or changes which they feel I
should make.

I am not trying to duplicate an AMD spec sheet.
http://tinyurl.com/7a2s (6 MB)

In fact, as a relative newbie to AMD processor families, all I am
trying to do is to understand all these Palominos and Thunderbirds
and all that, especially as the ranges overlapped in speed.

What I would really like to add to that chart is typical or max
power usage for each processor but I have worn myself out!

Any offers?

no...
i am rather a computer newbie...(started with a p1 in late 1999)

the 386-40 is a rather newer addition to my antique software collection.
it has 16 megs of ram and runs win95 quite well.
believe it or not...by pulling a few tricks...i put it on a 40meg harddrive!

btw: most of my machines are AMD based
not knocking Intel at all...simply use AMD because they work quite well
and cost less.

btw: one comment i always get about AMD is that they run hotter than
Intel...
that's true but of course it does not mean there's anything bad about it...

i;ve had a couple of cpu cooling fans go during the past few years...
and though the cpu got too hot too touch...did not fail!

Of course the average gif banner on a web page is considerably larger
than the memory a Z80 can address (without paging hardware).

Z80s are comming back in afor microcontroller use. You can get
practically a whole system for a couple of quid. its a Z80 based CPU
with DACs memory, the whole works on a single chip.

One thing about the Z80 was that is was a doddle to write good code
for it.

YEah but when it comes to microcontrollers, no one can beat the adoption
of the M68HC11 controller boards. Their everywhere and full of
features. The new ones have built-in ethernet.

Honeywell makes good ones too, from what I hear.

It's not necessarily true that AMD CPUs run hotter.

The Athlon XP will idle hotter if the motherboard's BIOS disables the
bus-disconnect (or doesn't enable it, whichever way you like to look at
it) but if that is enabled the idle temp is quite lower, within reasonable
distance of a P4, though perhaps still a little hotter.

However, at full load the high-end P4 chips run hotter than Athlon XP,
including Northwood and even moreso Prescott.

Then if we consider Athlon 64, the P4 is MUCH hotter at full load and
closer, but perhaps a bit hotter at idle.

Keep in mind these are "moving targets" since each 'sink could be retail
or other and that top speed per core could be compared or equivalent
performance overall or any combination of factors. I only meant to
provide a rough estimate.
