Becomes a CEO of Lattice Semiconductor

The man who played a key role in Ryzen and Threadripper 1 and 2 comeback, Jim Anderson a general manager at AMD, has left to become the CEO of Lattice Semiconductor, a FPGA maker.

Anderson served as a senior vice president and general manager of the Computing and Graphics Business Group and came from the network industry working for LSI, AVAGO and then made it to Intel as general manager of the AXXIA business that Intel acquired from LSI in 2014.

Three years agom Lisa gave him a SVP and GPU role for the CPU and GPU business groups and he was running all things CPu and GPU. This is part of the reason why Raja Koduri left, as Anderson was running the business side of things for both CPU and GPU.

Of course, being a second in command at AMD was great, but chaps like Anderson always dream of the CEO position. Lattice will give him several million dollars in stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs) and Performance restricted stock units.
