AMD Arrows
Designer:  Larry Bender
Typography:  None
Launched:  May 1, 1969

On May 1, 1969, Advanced Micro Devices was founded, adopting an 'arrow' logo, which has been in use since then. Its first product was the Am9300 shift register.

In 1982, rival Intel licensed its 8086 processors to AMD to serve as the former's second-source manufacturer, but later in the 1990s, the latter decided to make its own x86-based chips starting with the Am386 processor.

In 1995, its green variant was used as a main logo until 2013.

1980–1990 (secondary)[]

AMD 1970

Launched:  1980

This is a slimmer variant of its main arrow logo and it is commonly used on AMD chips in that period until it was dropped later in the 1990s in favor of its main AMD arrow logo. This logo was first used on one of its variants of Am8086 processor, based on Intel's 8086 processor.

1995–present[]

AMD
Designer:  Unknown
Typography:  Gill Sans Bold
Launched:  1995

AMD introduced its own wordmark alongside the AMD K5 processor in 1996. The green arrow logo variant was used as their main logo until it was dropped in 2013.
