For some OEMs (including Dell and Acer), the M690 series chipset was going to replace the Radeon Xpress 1150 (codenamed "RS485M") on the mobile platform. Starting in late 2006, mobile versions of the 690 chipset ("RS690M") were being rolled out in mass by major notebook computer manufacturers, including HP, Asus, Dell, Toshiba, Acer, and others.
The 690 chipsets began production in late 2006 and were announced in February 2007. Abit signed on prior to the AMD acquisition and AsRock was given the remaining inventory of RS600 chips for the Chinese market. AMD released the chipsets to only two vendors, Abit and AsRock. Īfter ATI was acquired by AMD in July 2006, plans for the Radeon Xpress 1250 chipset for the Intel platform were canceled while the 690G/M690 chipsets for the AMD platform became the main production target. The last-generation RD580 chipset will still be the principal product for the enthusiast segment.], the ASIC part number for RD690 presents but being labelled as "deleted"]. The planned "RD690" enthusiast chipset was canceled in the official roadmap without explanation and no release date was given for the "RX690" chipset which has no IGP and only one PCI-E x16 slot cquote2|The next generation 690 family will not feature the CrossFire ready RD690 version. The 690 chipset series consists of three members: 690G, 690V and M690T. The 690G and Radeon Xpress 1250 chipsets are direct successors to Xpress 1600 integrated graphics chipsets (codenamed "RS480" and "RS400"). Mobile versions have reduced power consumption Fact|date=August 2007 with adaptive power management features ( PowerPlay). Both the 690G and Radeon Xpress 1200 chipsets include an integrated graphics processing unit (IGP) based on the ATI Radeon X700 series GPUs with ATI AVIVO technology included for hardware video acceleration. The marketing name for this chipset on the Intel platform is the "Radeon Xpress 1200 series" (Radeon Xpress 1200 to Radeon Xpress 1270) while the name for the chipset on the AMD platform is "690G". Mobile versions of both chipsets have codenames "RS690M" and "RS600M". The corresponding chipset for the Intel platform has the codename "RS600" and shares a similar internal chip design. It's focused on both desktop and mobile computing markets. The AMD 690 chipset series is a chipset family developed and manufactured by AMD subsidiary ATI for the AMD platform. Predecessor = AMD 580 chipset series (chronologically)
Table name = AMD 690 chipset series/Radeon Xpress 1250
