    (操作員說明)我們今天的第一個問題來自美銀美林的 Vivek Arya。

  • Vivek Arya - Director

    Vivek Arya - Director

  • Congratulations on the strong results, especially on getting to the double-digit top margins in your Computing and Graphics segment, it's been a while since we saw that.

    祝賀您取得了驕人的成績,尤其是在您的計算和圖形領域獲得兩位數的最高利潤率,我們已經有一段時間沒有看到這一點了。

  • For my first question, Lisa, on EPYC server sales, you mentioned they doubled sequentially.

    對於我的第一個問題,麗莎,關於 EPYC(霄龍)服務器銷售,您提到它們連續翻了一番。

  • If you could give us some sense of what the magnitude is, so we at least have some ballpark sense on where you are right now?

    如果你能給我們一些關於震級的感覺,那麼我們至少對你現在的位置有一些大致的了解?

  • But importantly, what are the remaining pushbacks from customers in terms of what they would like to see before they adopt EPYC in a more meaningful way?

    但重要的是,客戶在以更有意義的方式採用 EPYC 之前希望看到什麼,還有哪些反對意見?

  • Is it just a matter of time?

    這只是時間問題嗎?

  • Is it a performance or a pricing gap?

    是性能差距還是價格差距?

  • Or what else do you need to deliver on to get EPYC to a more meaningful level?

    或者您還需要提供什麼才能讓 EPYC 達到更有意義的水平?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes, absolutely, Vivek.

    是的,絕對是,維維克。

  • Thanks for the questions.

    感謝您的提問。

  • So look, on EPYC, we did make a very nice progress in the quarter.

    所以看,在 EPYC 上,我們在本季度確實取得了非常好的進展。

  • I think when you look at it from a revenue standpoint, it's a strong double-digit percentage.

    我認為,從收入的角度來看,這是一個強勁的兩位數百分比。

  • There is -- we certainly view that the units increasing is also very positive thing.

    有——我們當然認為單位增加也是非常積極的事情。

  • The traction actually is across all areas.

    牽引力實際上遍及所有領域。

  • So we saw traction in Enterprise sort of end-user deployments.

    因此,我們看到了企業級最終用戶部署的吸引力。

  • We saw some channel and system integrator deployments as well as hyperscale deployments.

    我們看到了一些渠道和系統集成商部署以及超大規模部署。

  • And our goal is to get to mid-single-digit share by the end of this year.

    我們的目標是到今年年底達到中個位數的份額。

  • I think we are making good progress towards that.

    我認為我們在這方面取得了很好的進展。

  • What we're working with customers now is just going through their various stages of qualifications.

    我們現在與客戶合作的只是通過他們各個階段的資格認證。

  • So they go from proof of concept to initial deployment then to large volume deployment.

    因此,他們從概念驗證到初始部署,然後再到大規模部署。

  • And we're in that initial deployment phase.

    我們正處於初始部署階段。

  • And so I think we're making good progress, and it is -- there are no real pushbacks other than just time going through the classification process and working with them in their environments to make sure that we get fully qualified.

    所以我認為我們正在取得良好的進展,而且它是 - 除了時間來完成分類過程並在他們的環境中與他們合作以確保我們完全合格之外,沒有真正的阻力。

  • Vivek Arya - Director

    Vivek Arya - Director

  • Got it.

    知道了。

  • And as a follow-up, if I look at your server ASPs in the past, they were sort of in the $300 to $400 range, well below what your competitor had.

    作為後續,如果我查看您過去的服務器 ASP,它們在 300 到 400 美元之間,遠低於您的競爭對手。

  • As you look a lot of these engagements that you are participating in now, how should we think about pricing trends that you're seeing in that market?

    當您看到您現在參與的許多此類活動時,我們應該如何考慮您在該市場中看到的定價趨勢?

  • Are you able to sell in a higher-value segment than you were able to do in the past?

    您是否能夠在比過去更高價值的細分市場中銷售?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • So Vivek, I think the very strong part of our roadmap right now is we're really playing across the entire portfolio.

    所以 Vivek,我認為我們現在的路線圖非常強大的部分是我們真的在整個投資組合中發揮作用。

  • So from, let's call it, the low end of the server market, the entry level, all the way through the high-end 2-piece SKUs.

    因此,我們稱之為服務器市場的低端、入門級,一直到高端的 2 件套 SKU。

  • So the pricing on -- that we're seeing in the market is very reasonable.

    因此,我們在市場上看到的定價非常合理。

  • From our standpoint, they are -- we're providing value to the customer, but they're also very accretive to the margins of our own overall business.

    從我們的角度來看,它們是——我們正在為客戶提供價值,但它們也非常增加我們自身整體業務的利潤。

  • So yes, the pricing environment is good.

    所以是的,定價環境很好。

  • First question on the rise in notebook effort.

    關於筆記本努力上升的第一個問題。

  • It sounds like's it's really starting to hit its stride.

    聽起來它真的開始大踏步前進了。

  • I was hoping you could give us a little bit more color, which segments does it seem to resonate with?

    我希望你能給我們更多的色彩,它似乎與哪些部分產生了共鳴?

  • To what extent is it a commercial versus a consumer product?

    它在多大程度上是商業產品與消費產品?

  • And do you think that the Ryzen notebook opportunity, is it bigger than the desktop opportunity ultimately in your minds?

    你認為銳龍筆記本的機會,最終在你心目中是否比台式機機會更大?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes, Mark.

    是的,馬克。

  • So look, we -- we're making very good progress on Ryzen.

    所以看,我們 - 我們在 Ryzen 上取得了非常好的進展。

  • I think we're very pleased with the Q1 results and then what we see going into Q2 in the second half.

    我認為我們對第一季度的結果以及我們在下半年看到的第二季度的結果感到非常滿意。

  • It is true that up until this quarter, much of our progress has been in the channel and in the desktop portion of the business.

    確實,直到本季度,我們的大部分進展都在渠道和業務的桌面部分。

  • We saw a nice increase this quarter in notebooks and what it is, is many of the OEMs are actually launching systems in Q2.

    我們在本季度看到筆記本電腦的大幅增長,事實上,許多原始設備製造商實際上在第二季度推出了系統。

  • And with that, we had -- they're basically building up their production for the second quarter launches.

    有了這個,我們有 - 他們基本上是在為第二季度的發佈建立他們的生產。

  • What you're going to see in the second quarter is a number of impressive premium consumer designs, thin and light designs that, I think, are representative of the strength of the product.

    您將在第二季度看到一些令人印象深刻的高端消費設計,我認為輕薄設計代表了產品的實力。

  • And we will also see the first launch of the commercial systems from the top OEMs.

    我們還將看到頂級 OEM 首次推出商業系統。

  • And the expectation is that the commercial notebooks will kick in, in the second half of the year.

    預計商業筆記本電腦將在下半年開始。

  • Q2 is more of a consumer cycle.

    第二季度更像是一個消費周期。

  • But overall, I think we're seeing that the notebook OEM opportunity is a good one.

    但總的來說,我認為我們看到筆記本 OEM 機會是一個很好的機會。

  • We have strong design wins.

    我們擁有強大的設計優勢。

  • The customers are working closely with us.

    客戶正在與我們密切合作。

  • We're doing a lot of work with retailers and the overall go-to-market to ensure that the notebook opportunity is important.

    我們正在與零售商和整體上市做大量工作,以確保筆記本電腦的機會很重要。

  • And notebook is larger than desktop overall.

    而且筆記本總體上比台式機大。

  • Mark John Lipacis - Senior Equity Research Analyst

    Mark John Lipacis - Senior Equity Research Analyst

  • Okay, great.

    好,太棒了。

  • That's helpful.

    這很有幫助。

  • And a follow-up, if I may.

    如果可以的話,還有後續行動。

  • On EPYC, the product has been in the market for a while.

    在 EPYC 上,該產品已經上市一段時間了。

  • I understand that you have to go through the testing phase and then pilot programs and initial deployments and then, hopefully, larger scale deployments.

    我知道您必須經歷測試階段,然後是試點計劃和初始部署,然後希望進行更大規模的部署。

  • What -- how do you think -- or how should we think about the cadence of updates on this product?

    什麼——你怎麼看——或者我們應該如何看待這個產品的更新節奏?

  • Is this a similar cadence that you would see on the desktop or a notebook side?

    這是您在台式機或筆記本電腦端看到的類似節奏嗎?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Sure, Mark.

    當然,馬克。

  • So on the service side, the cadence of deployments does tend to be longer.

    所以在服務方面,部署的節奏確實會更長。

  • I think we're well into the cadence, and so I think the EPYC work with the OEMs, you saw the culmination of that with HPE announcing in December, and then Dell announcing in the first quarter.

    我認為我們的節奏很好,所以我認為 EPYC 與 OEM 合作,你看到了 HPE 在 12 月宣布,然後戴爾在第一季度宣布的高潮。

  • That will now move over into Enterprise customers, who are then taking their systems into their labs and doing their initial deployments.

    現在,這將轉移到企業客戶身上,然後他們將他們的系統帶入他們的實驗室並進行初始部署。

  • So I think the cadence is over a number of quarters.

    所以我認為節奏超過了幾個季度。

  • I will say, for the first-generation EPYC, we're seeing really nice customer interest, and it's quite broad.

    我會說,對於第一代 EPYC,我們看到了非常好的客戶興趣,而且非常廣泛。

  • And so it is across Enterprise as well as the hyperscale customers.

    因此,它適用於企業以及超大規模客戶。

  • And we view this as a multigenerational play, so we're very excited about what EPYC can do over the next couple of quarters.

    我們將其視為多代人的遊戲,因此我們對 EPYC(霄龍)在接下來的幾個季度能做些什麼感到非常興奮。

  • But we also believe that this is the right investment to make with the customer set as we bring out the second generation of EPYC and the third generation of EPYC, obviously, it would go a little bit faster because the customer set is familiar with our system.

    但我們也相信這是對客戶組的正確投資,因為我們推出了第二代 EPYC 和第三代 EPYC,顯然,它會更快一點,因為客戶組熟悉我們的系統.

  • Devinder, impressive year-over-year gross margin growth in the March quarter of 400 basis points.

    Devinder,令人印象深刻的 3 月季度毛利率同比增長 400 個基點。

  • I'm just kind of curious, clearly, Ryzen has had a positive impact.

    我只是有點好奇,很明顯,銳龍產生了積極的影響。

  • Can help break down the 400 basis points year-on-year growth between kind of new products and the fact that Semi-Custom sort of declined as a percent of the mix pretty significantly from '17 to '18?

    能否幫助打破新產品種類之間的 400 個基點的同比增長以及從 17 年到 18 年半定制類產品的百分比顯著下降的事實?

  • And then how do we think about the incremental margin leverage as EPYC comes in and perhaps Ryzen, too?

    那麼我們如何看待隨著 EPYC(霄龍)以及 Ryzen 的出現而增加的保證金槓桿?

  • Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

    Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

  • Yes, a good question, John.

    是的,一個很好的問題,約翰。

  • Actually, if you look at it from a margin standpoint year-over-year, the Semi-Custom revenue was actually down, so that was helpful.

    實際上,如果從利潤率的角度來看,半定制收入實際上是下降的,所以這很有幫助。

  • But beyond that, if you look at the new products, fundamentally, the new products is what's driving the margin.

    但除此之外,如果你看一下新產品,從根本上說,新產品是推動利潤率的因素。

  • Ryzen, EPYC, GPU compute retail all higher than corporate average, those are driving the increase in the margin.

    銳龍、EPYC(霄龍)、GPU 計算零售均高於企業平均水平,這些都推動了利潤率的增長。

  • As we get to the rest of the year, as you observed, the momentum and the products are there for the new products.

    正如您所觀察到的,隨著我們進入今年剩餘時間,新產品的勢頭和產品都在那裡。

  • They're going to go ahead and contribute to the margin increase and that's why from prior guidance, we just updated our margin to say maybe greater than 36% the last time, we updated it to say greater than 37% this time for the year, and that's fundamentally all with the momentum that we have for the new products.

    他們將繼續前進並為提高利潤率做出貢獻,這就是為什麼根據之前的指導,我們剛剛更新了我們的利潤率,說上次可能超過 36%,我們更新它說今年這個時候超過 37% ,這基本上都是我們對新產品的動力。

  • That's helpful, Devinder.

    這很有幫助,德溫德。

  • And Lisa, for my follow-up.

    還有麗莎,我的後續行動。

  • I appreciate kind of quantifying blockchain for both the first quarter and for last year, and also, your commentary about it being -- it looks like down sequentially, at least embedded in your June guidance.

    我很欣賞第一季度和去年的一種量化區塊鏈,還有你對它的評論——它看起來是按順序下降的,至少嵌入在你 6 月的指導中。

  • I'm just kind of curious, just given how hard it is the track where these GPUs are really going, how do you get a sense of what's a blockchain application versus something else, one?

    我只是有點好奇,考慮到這些 GPU 真正走向的軌道有多難,你如何理解區塊鏈應用程序與其他應用程序的區別,一個?

  • And two, do you see this as a viable long-term market, or do you believe that as this market develops, it's going to have to move from proof of work to proof of stake, which might just negate mining altogether and if that scenario were to play out, how worried are you about sort of secondary cards coming back to the market and kind of hurting pricing either the second half of this year or into 2019?

    第二,你認為這是一個可行的長期市場,還是你認為隨著這個市場的發展,它必須從工作證明轉向股權證明,這可能完全否定挖礦,如果這種情況如果要上場,您對今年下半年或 2019 年下半年或 2019 年會出現某種次要卡重返市場以及價格下跌的擔憂有多大?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Sure, John.

    當然,約翰。

  • So look, on the blockchain, there is a lot of discussion about this.

    所以看,在區塊鏈上,有很多關於這個的討論。

  • From our standpoint, we stay very, very close to the customer set with -- in the graphic space.

    從我們的角度來看,我們在圖形空間中與客戶保持非常非常接近。

  • And so we spend time with the commercial miners as well as spending time with our partners.

    因此,我們花時間與商業礦工以及與我們的合作夥伴共度時光。

  • And the way we look at this, our first priority when we look at allocation of graphics cards is to gamers.

    而我們看待這一點的方式,當我們查看顯卡分配時,我們的首要任務是遊戲玩家。

  • And so that's through OEMs, that's through system integrators that's also working with key e-tailers to make sure that they are prioritizing the gamers segment, and we're going to continue to do that.

    所以這是通過原始設備製造商,通過系統集成商,他們也與主要的電子零售商合作,以確保他們優先考慮遊戲玩家細分市場,我們將繼續這樣做。

  • And so that's one piece that we know well.

    這是我們熟知的一件事情。

  • We also work directly with the commercial miners.

    我們還直接與商業礦工合作。

  • And so we see kind of what their forecasts are and they work with us.

    所以我們看到他們的預測是什麼,他們與我們合作。

  • And so that's -- that we have good visibility on.

    所以這就是 - 我們有很好的知名度。

  • There is a piece that go through retail that it's hard to tell whether that's gaming or mining, but we believe we have a good sense of what that is.

    有一件通過零售的作品很難區分是遊戲還是採礦,但我們相信我們對那是什麼有很好的了解。

  • So it is an approximation, but we think it's a good approximation of where we are.

    所以這是一個近似值,但我們認為這是一個很好的近似值。

  • And then to your longer-term question, I do think the blockchain infrastructure is here to stay.

    然後對於您的長期問題,我確實認為區塊鏈基礎設施將繼續存在。

  • I think there are numerous currencies, there are numerous applications that are using the blockchain technology.

    我認為有很多貨幣,有很多應用程序正在使用區塊鏈技術。

  • We don't see a significant risk of GPU -- secondhand GPUs coming into the market.

    我們沒有看到 GPU 的重大風險——二手 GPU 進入市場。

  • I think what you find is that, one, there are number of different currencies; and two, a lot of these users that are buying GPUs these days are actually buying them for multiple use cases, both commercial and consumer.

    我想你會發現,第一,有多種不同的貨幣;第二,現在購買 GPU 的許多用戶實際上是為多個用例購買它們,包括商業和消費者。

  • So they're not necessarily buying just for mining.

    所以他們不一定只是為了採礦而購買。

  • And I think for that reason, we do think this is a different cycle.

    我認為出於這個原因,我們確實認為這是一個不同的周期。

  • That being the case, we do see a bit of volatility in it and that's why we are putting into our forecast for the second quarter and the second half, a little bit lower blockchain demand but that's more than made up for by the other new products and the way the new products are ramping in the business.

    在這種情況下,我們確實看到了它的一些波動,這就是為什麼我們對第二季度和下半年進行預測,區塊鏈需求略低,但其他新產品彌補了這一點以及新產品在業務中的發展方式。

    因此,在我們第二季度的指導中,我們實際上假設 Ryzen 和 EPYC(霄龍)在上漲,而 Semi-Custom 也在季節性上漲,我們預計圖形會根據一些區塊鏈需求適度下降。

  • I think relative to our CPU business, and we are launching additional Ryzen-based products in the second half of the year, we just launched the second-generation Ryzen desktop in 12-nanometer.

    我認為相對於我們的 CPU 業務,我們將在下半年推出更多基於 Ryzen 的產品,我們剛剛推出了 12 納米的第二代 Ryzen 桌面。

  • And that launch has gone really well.

    那次發射非常順利。

  • I mean, we're very happy with the positioning and how customers are reacting to that.

    我的意思是,我們對定位以及客戶對此的反應非常滿意。

  • In the second half, we'll have some commercial systems and some other updates to our Ryzen lineup that we will launch.

    在下半年,我們將推出一些商業系統和我們將推出的 Ryzen 陣容的一些其他更新。

  • We have a 7-nanometer GPU based on Vega that we'll sample later this year.

    我們有一個基於 Vega 的 7 納米 GPU,我們將在今年晚些時候對其進行採樣。

  • We have a 7-nanometer server, a CPU that we'll sample later this year.

    我們有一個 7 納米服務器和一個 CPU,我們將在今年晚些時候對其進行採樣。

  • And then obviously, we have a number of products that are planned for 2019 as well.

    顯然,我們也計劃在 2019 年推出許多產品。

  • So it's a very, very busy product season for us, but we're pleased with the sort of the execution on the product roadmap.

    從根本上說,ASC 606,從收入的角度來看,發生的是季節性和半定制收入變化的概況。

  • Some of the revenue that we used to get in the second half moved to the first half, so I would say, it's a little bit more balanced between the first half and the second half, as opposed to the peak revenue we used to see in Q3.

    我們過去在下半年獲得的一些收入轉移到了上半年,所以我想說,與我們過去看到的峰值收入相比,上半年和下半年之間更加平衡了一些Q3。

  • So that is the primary effect on the profile of the revenue, not necessarily the annual revenue.

    所以這是對收入概況的主要影響,不一定是年收入。

  • ASC 606 has started earning a significant impact on our annual revenue, it's more of the profile of the revenue within the quarters.

    ASC 606 已開始對我們的年收入產生重大影響,它更多地反映了季度內的收入情況。

  • As far as impact is concerned, if you're comparing year-over-year, for example, in Q1 of 2018, Semi-Custom was down because we had more revenue in Q1 of 2017.

    就影響而言,如果您按年進行比較,例如,在 2018 年第一季度,Semi-Custom 下降了,因為我們在 2017 年第一季度有更多的收入。

  • And then Q2, it is slightly up but very balanced from where we see it from an overall standpoint.

    然後是第二季度,從整體角度來看,它略有上升,但非常平衡。

  • So last year in Q2, it was like -- I forget how much, like a $75 million headwind versus what would have been otherwise?

    所以去年第二季度,就像 - 我忘記了多少,比如 7500 萬美元的逆風,否則會是什麼?

  • Is it a similar amount of headwind this time in Q2?

    這次第二季度的逆風是否相似?

  • Or is it less?

    還是更少?

  • Or is it a tailwind?

    還是順風?

  • Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

    Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

  • I wouldn't -- I would say that it was a headwind last year.

    我不會——我會說這是去年的逆風。

  • This year, from an overall standpoint, if I compare year-over-year, it is up slightly from where we were in Q2 of 2018.

    今年,從整體的角度來看,如果我與去年同期相比,它比我們在 2018 年第二季度的水平略有上升。

  • So if you're comparing Q2 '17 to Q2 '18, it's a benefit the revenue in Q2 of 2018 in our guide.

    因此,如果您將 17 年第二季度與 18 年第二季度進行比較,那麼在我們的指南中,2018 年第二季度的收入是有益的。

  • I had 2. I'm curious about your comments just now on blockchain, and I'm a little surprised to hear that you think that there would be limited risk that, that product would come back into the market.

    我有 2。我很好奇你剛才對區塊鏈的評論,聽到你認為該產品重返市場的風險有限,我有點驚訝。

  • Can you, again, go over why you think that is?

    你能再說一遍你為什麼這麼認為嗎?

  • Because you're selling more of a general SKU, right?

    因為您銷售的更多的是一般 SKU,對嗎?

  • And then I guess, also, how you handicap the potential for there to be some ASP effect on that too?

    然後我想,你是如何阻礙 ASP 影響的可能性呢?

  • I know you've captured some of the rising ASPs in the channel, so how do you handicap that looking out throughout the rest of the year?

    我知道你已經在渠道中捕捉到了一些不斷上升的 ASP,那麼你如何在今年剩下的時間裡阻止這種情況呢?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes, absolutely, Tim.

    是的,當然,蒂姆。

  • So look, when you look at -- I think most people are comparing this sort of -- this blockchain time period to the last one, which is a couple of years ago.

    所以看,當你看 - 我想大多數人都在比較這種 - 這個區塊鏈時間段與幾年前的最後一個時間段。

  • And I think there are a couple of important differences.

    我認為有幾個重要的區別。

  • I think the first one is that there are multiple currencies and multiple applications that are being used.

    我認為第一個是正在使用多種貨幣和多種應用程序。

  • And what we've seen is that people who are mining do go from one currency to another depending on what's happening.

    我們所看到的是,挖礦的人確實會根據正在發生的事情從一種貨幣轉換到另一種貨幣。

  • We're also seeing that many users on both the commercial and consumer side are actually buying GPUs for multiple use cases.

    我們還看到,商業和消費者方面的許多用戶實際上都在為多個用例購買 GPU。

  • And from that standpoint, again, we see that there is good demand for, not just blockchain, but for gaming, for the cloud and for those things as well.

    從這個角度來看,我們再次看到,不僅對區塊鏈有很好的需求,對遊戲、雲和這些東西也有很好的需求。

  • And so I think it's a balanced assessment of where we are.

    所以我認為這是對我們所處位置的平衡評估。

  • I think the breadth of the blockchain applications and also the breadth of the customer base give us that belief.

    我認為區塊鏈應用程序的廣度以及客戶群的廣度給了我們這樣的信念。

  • Now as you go forward, there's also a -- when we look at the Graphics business go forward minus blockchain, we actually see a very good environment.

    現在,當您繼續前進時,還有一個--當我們看圖形業務減去區塊鏈時,我們實際上看到了一個非常好的環境。

  • We see a good environment for gaming growing, we see a good environment for GPU compute growing.

    我們看到了遊戲增長的良好環境,我們看到了 GPU 計算增長的良好環境。

  • And frankly, on the gaming side, some of those users have not been able to get access to GPUs and so, again, that's -- those are all positives as we go forward.

    坦率地說,在遊戲方面,其中一些用戶無法訪問 GPU,因此,再一次,這些都是我們前進的積極因素。

  • And then you had a second question, Tim?

    然後你有第二個問題,蒂姆?

  • Timothy Michael Arcuri - MD and Head of Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment

    Timothy Michael Arcuri - MD and Head of Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment

  • I did, yes.

    我做到了,是的。

  • I think you said the 7-nanometer product is in the lab, and it's going to launch later this year?

    我想你說 7 納米產品在實驗室裡,它會在今年晚些時候推出?

  • That's the product at TSMC, correct?

    那是台積電的產品,對嗎?

  • And I guess, I'm just wondering on that front, do you feel comfortable that you can get capacity from that vendor?

    而且我想,我只是想知道在這方面,您是否覺得可以從該供應商那裡獲得容量?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • So our foundry strategy is to use both TSMC and GLOBALFOUNDRIES on the first 7-nanometer product.

    所以我們的代工策略是在第一個 7 納米產品上同時使用台積電和格芯。

  • We are using TSMC for that product, and we have a very strong relationship with them.

    我們將台積電用於該產品,我們與他們有著非常牢固的關係。

  • And so we do see a good momentum on it from what we see, and I'm not concerned about capacity.

    因此,從我們所看到的情況來看,我們確實看到了它的良好勢頭,我並不擔心容量。

  • Just a follow-up on the Semi-Custom business.

    只是對半定制業務的跟進。

  • On the June quarter guide, you mentioned sequential growth in Semi-Custom.

    在 6 月季度指南中,您提到了半定制的連續增長。

  • But if I look at your ASC 606 reconciliations for last year, it looks like the Semi-Custom business was actually down double-digits percentage point sequentially going from Q1 to Q2?

    但是,如果我查看您去年的 ASC 606 對賬,看起來半定制業務實際上從第一季度到第二季度連續下降了兩位數的百分點?

  • So like-for-like on their 606, why are there different shipment profiles this year, Q1 to Q2?

    他們的 606 如此相似,為什麼今年第一季度到第二季度的出貨情況有所不同?

  • Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

    Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

  • Yes, I can explain that.

    是的,我可以解釋。

  • So in Q1 of '17, there was a strategic buy of wafers that we did in Q1 '17, so it had a bigger impact in Q1 '17 and then the effect caught up in Q2.

    所以在 17 年第一季度,我們在 17 年第一季度對晶圓進行了戰略性購買,因此它在 17 年第一季度產生了更大的影響,然後在第二季度就趕上了。

  • So the impact Q1 to Q2 was significant.

    所以第一季度到第二季度的影響是顯著的。

  • This year, it's more balanced.

    今年,它更加平衡。

  • And from that standpoint, when you compare year-over-year, Q1 to Q1, it's down, but Q2 to Q2, it's up.

    從這個角度來看,當你與去年同期相比時,第一季度到第一季度,它下降了,但第二季度到第二季度,它上升了。

  • So there was a different profile in Q1 '17 just based on the way the wafers were purchased in '17 versus the way in '18, where it's a little bit more balanced.

    因此,17 年第一季度的情況有所不同,僅基於 17 年晶圓的購買方式與 18 年的方式不同,後者更加平衡。

    麗莎的問題。

  • Embedded solutions contributed to the year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter growth in EESC, I think that this is kind of an often overlooked part of the business because Embedded is nice because it gives you guys exposure to kind of a diverse set of their market applications.

    嵌入式解決方案為 EESC 的同比和環比增長做出了貢獻,我認為這是業務中經常被忽視的部分,因為嵌入式很好,因為它讓你們接觸到各種各樣的集合他們的市場應用。

  • Can you just help us understand where the team is seeing good demand traction in Embedded?

    您能否幫助我們了解團隊在嵌入式領域看到良好的需求牽引力的地方?

  • And maybe give us a rough idea on kind of overall revenue contribution to EESC?

    也許給我們一個關於對 EESC 的整體收入貢獻的粗略想法?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes, Harlan.

    是的,哈蘭。

  • So Embedded is a nice segment, you're absolutely right.

    所以嵌入式是一個很好的部分,你是絕對正確的。

  • I think it's a margin-accretive segment to us.

    我認為這對我們來說是一個增加利潤的部分。

  • The end markets that we ship into, there are thin clients, they are places where you need graphics for displays, so there's some Embedded displays that we ship into there.

    我們交付的終端市場有瘦客戶端,它們是您需要顯示圖形的地方,因此我們向那裡交付了一些嵌入式顯示器。

  • It's still a small business for us, but we actually believe, in addition to the goodness around Ryzen and EPYC, when we launch those products, Ryzen and EPYC Embedded, we actually saw very strong interest from customers.

    這對我們來說仍然是一個小生意,但我們實際上相信,除了 Ryzen 和 EPYC 的優點之外,當我們推出這些產品 Ryzen 和 EPYC Embedded 時,我們實際上看到了客戶的強烈興趣。

  • And so we think as the product strength in our PC and our server business increased, they will also help that Embedded solutions business overall.

    因此,我們認為隨著我們 PC 和服務器業務的產品實力的增強,它們也將有助於整個嵌入式解決方案業務。

  • So I would think it's still a small piece of the business, but we believe it will be a nice growing margin accretive portion of the business over the next couple of years.

    所以我認為這仍然是業務的一小部分,但我們相信這將是未來幾年業務中利潤增長的一個不錯的增長部分。

  • Lisa, question on the ASPs.

    麗莎,關於 ASP 的問題。

  • I think you said the ASPs went up because of the Ryzen mix improving.

    我認為你說 ASP 上升是因為 Ryzen 組合的改進。

  • Can you give us some more color as to where Ryzen is, in terms of the mix?

    就混音而言,你能給我們更多關於銳龍在哪裡的信息嗎?

  • And then with Ryzen 2, do you expect that to be accretive to ASPs and margins?

    然後使用 Ryzen 2,您是否認為這會增加 ASP 和利潤率?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • So in terms of the client business, we saw units up overall.

    因此,就客戶業務而言,我們看到了整體上的單位。

  • We saw ASPs up overall, and they were up in both desktop and mobile.

    我們看到 ASP 總體上有所上升,並且它們在桌面和移動設備上都有所上升。

  • And when you look underneath that, I think, what -- the main thing is we're seeing a larger mix of the business become Ryzen.

    當你深入了解這一點時,我想,主要的是我們看到更多的業務組合變成了銳龍。

  • So in the fourth quarter, we had stated that the Ryzen mix of the client business was kind of in the low 40s.

    因此,在第四季度,我們曾表示客戶業務的 Ryzen 組合處於 40 年代的低位。

  • And so we had in notebook a lot of legacy product that we're still shipping, and in desktop, we had some legacy product that we're still shipping.

    因此,我們在筆記本電腦中有很多仍在發貨的遺留產品,在台式機中,我們有一些仍在發貨的遺留產品。

  • As we move over to the first quarter, the notebook mix has mixed nicely into Ryzen, and the desktop is now mixed very nicely into Ryzen as well.

    當我們進入第一季度時,筆記本電腦已經很好地融入了銳龍,台式機現在也很好地融入了銳龍。

  • So overall, that's what led to the ASP increase.

    所以總的來說,這就是導致 ASP 增加的原因。

  • I think the second generation Ryzen is a very, very good product.

    我認為第二代銳龍是一款非常非常好的產品。

  • I think it's -- it actually -- when you look at the first generation Ryzen, we were very good on multithreaded performance, but there were some detractors around single threaded and gaming performance.

    我認為它——實際上——當你看到第一代銳龍時,我們在多線程性能方面非常出色,但在單線程和遊戲性能方面存在一些批評者。

  • I think the second generation Ryzen is actually much more competitive on gaming performance.

    我認為第二代銳龍實際上在遊戲性能上更具競爭力。

  • So we do see an opportunity for that to help us increase share in the desktop business, and certainly, that would be accretive to margin.

    因此,我們確實看到了一個機會,可以幫助我們增加在桌面業務中的份額,當然,這會增加利潤。

  • Srinivas Reddy Pajjuri - Senior Analyst

    Srinivas Reddy Pajjuri - Senior Analyst

  • Great.

    偉大的。

  • And then one question on the server business.

    然後是關於服務器業務的一個問題。

  • I guess, your target is to get to a mid-single-digit share by end of this year, which is a fairly gradual ramp.

    我想,你的目標是到今年年底達到中個位數的份額,這是一個相當緩慢的增長。

  • I'm just curious as to when you expect the 7-nanometer part to be available in the market?

    我只是想知道您預計 7 納米部件何時會在市場上上市?

  • And when that happens, do you see an inflection to your share gains or do you continue you expect gradual share gains?

    當這種情況發生時,您是否看到您的股票收益出現拐點,或者您是否繼續期望股票收益逐漸增長?

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • So all of the sales this year will be around of the current generation of Ryzen, and so that gets us to the mid-single-digit share.

    因此,今年的所有銷售額都將圍繞當前這一代銳龍,這使我們的份額達到中個位數。

  • 7-nanometer Zen 2-based product we'll sample later this year to customers and that will be in production in 2019, and we do believe that the adoption rate of the second generation could potentially be higher than the adoption rate of the first generation, mostly because customers will be more familiar with our systems and our products.

    我們將在今年晚些時候向客戶提供基於 7 納米 Zen 2 的產品樣品,並將於 2019 年投入生產,我們確實相信第二代的採用率可能會高於第一代的採用率,主要是因為客戶會更熟悉我們的系統和產品。

  • And so we'll see how it goes, but we certainly -- our overall goals are ambitious in the server space.

    因此,我們將看到進展如何,但我們當然——我們的總體目標在服務器領域是雄心勃勃的。

  • And so this year, its first generation Ryzen, next year, we'll mix in the 7-nanometer, second-generation -- I'm sorry, first generation EPYC.

    所以今年,它的第一代銳龍,明年,我們將混合 7 納米,第二代——對不起,第一代 EPYC。

  • And next year, we'll mix in the second generation of the EPYC products.

    明年,我們將混入第二代 EPYC 產品。

  • I think on the software side, we have more work to do, and we're making significant investments in some of the machine learning frameworks, such as Tensor Flow and Caffe, and some of these key frameworks, to ensure that we make it easier to adopt our solutions.

    我認為在軟件方面,我們還有更多工作要做,我們正在對一些機器學習框架進行大量投資,例如 Tensor Flow 和 Caffe,以及其中一些關鍵框架,以確保我們讓它變得更容易採用我們的解決方案。

  • But we see this is a multiyear, really, opportunity for us.

    但我們看到這對我們來說是一個多年的,真的,機會。

  • So GPU compute will continue to be a focus area for us.

    因此,GPU 計算將繼續成為我們關注的重點領域。

  • We think we can be very competitive and we're going to continue to invest in this area.

    我們認為我們可以很有競爭力,我們將繼續在這個領域進行投資。

  • As it relates to, let's call it, non-GPU solutions, I think there will -- the landscape says there will be some ASIC solutions in the marketplace, but I view that as complementary to the GPU solutions and, from that standpoint, I think we have the CPUs, we have GPUs, and then we have the ability to connect heterogeneously to these other elements.

    因為它涉及到,讓我們稱之為非 GPU 解決方案,我認為會有 - 市場上會出現一些 ASIC 解決方案,但我認為這是對 GPU 解決方案的補充,從這個角度來看,我認為我們有 CPU,我們有 GPU,然後我們有能力將異構連接到這些其他元素。

  • So yes, from our standpoint again, we see this as a market that very much fits our capability, and we will continue to invest in it.

    我認為,在我們向前看的時候,我認為這很重要,我們相信 The Foundry 生態系統的 7 納米能力非常好,從製造的角度來看,這使我們處於良好的競爭地位。

  • And then on the design side, obviously, we have things that we're planning.

    然後在設計方面,顯然,我們有我們正在計劃的事情。

  • And so I see the competitive environment as one that is as good, and we're going to work very hard to make sure that it gets better over time.

    所以我認為競爭環境也很好,我們將非常努力地確保它隨著時間的推移變得更好。

  • Obviously, we take the competition very seriously.

    顯然,我們非常重視比賽。

  • Oh, yes, and the second question -- sorry, about that, Hans -- on Spectre.

    哦,是的,第二個問題——對不起,漢斯——關於幽靈。

  • We have spent a good amount of time with our customer set to make sure that they're fully protected on Spectre.

    我們花了很多時間與我們的客戶一起確保他們在 Spectre 上得到充分保護。

  • We've actually released a number of software mitigations already to our OEM customers and to our partners.

    實際上,我們已經向我們的 OEM 客戶和我們的合作夥伴發布了許多軟件緩解措施。

  • They're in the process of deploying.

    他們正在部署中。

  • So I think it took a lot of energy, certainly, we spent a lot of time on it and our customer set spent time on it.

    所以我認為這花費了很多精力,當然,我們花了很多時間在上面,我們的客戶也花了很多時間。

  • But we don't see any long-term effects.

    但我們沒有看到任何長期影響。

  • It's more that we want to make sure to get the work done quickly, and that's been our focus.

    更重要的是,我們希望確保快速完成工作,這一直是我們的重點。

  • I wanted to ask you, I think you mentioned double-digit sequential growth in the CT business.

    我想問你,我想你提到了 CT 業務的兩位數連續增長。

  • I was just kind of curious what stage you're on in terms of channel fill for Ryzen Mobile business?

    我只是有點好奇你在 Ryzen 移動業務的渠道填充方面處於什麼階段?

  • And then I have one more follow-up.

    然後我還有一個後續行動。

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • So we did, and as I mentioned, have some mobile product shipped ahead of OEM system launches in the second quarter.

    所以我們做到了,正如我所提到的,在第二季度 OEM 系統發布之前,我們已經交付了一些移動產品。

  • But we see this really as the beginning of the Ryzen ramp.

    但我們認為這確實是銳龍斜坡的開始。

  • So my expectation is that the client or the Ryzen portion of our business will be up in the second quarter and it will be up in the second half.

    所以我的預期是客戶或我們業務的 Ryzen 部分將在第二季度上升,並將在下半年上升。

  • And so it's the beginning of the notebook ramp.

    所以這是筆記本電腦坡道的開始。

  • And I wanted to ask just on the OpEx side, Devinder.

    我想問一下運營支出方面的問題,Devinder。

  • Just in terms of licensing gains that have been OpEx offset, do you expect any of those gains this year?

    僅就已被 OpEx 抵消的許可收益而言,您預計今年會有這些收益嗎?

  • Devinder Kumar - Senior VP, CFO & Treasurer

  • I think there could be, but it's hard to tell because it's kind of dependent upon the milestone that come into play.

    我認為可能有,但很難說,因為它有點依賴於發揮作用的里程碑。

  • There was the OpEx offset last year that got reversed, but we'll see it when it happens from a milestone standpoint.

    去年的 OpEx 抵消發生了逆轉,但從里程碑的角度來看,我們會看到它。

  • Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

    Lisa T. Su - President, CEO & Non-Independent Director

  • I think, Blayne, just as a point of clarification on this point.

    我認為,Blayne,只是為了澄清這一點。

  • From an IP standpoint, we're not forecasting IP either here in the second quarter or into the second half.

    從知識產權的角度來看,我們不會在第二季度或下半年預測知識產權。

  • I think as Devinder said, we do have some IP arrangements that we're working on, and depending on when those milestones complete, we will then sort of forecast it into the business.

    我認為正如 Devinder 所說,我們確實有一些我們正在處理的 IP 安排,並且根據這些里程碑何時完成,我們將在某種程度上將其預測到業務中。
