The AMD Jaguar Family 16h is a low-power microarchitecture designed by AMD. It is used in APUs succeeding the Bobcat Family microarchitecture in 2013 and being succeeded by AMD's Puma architecture in 2014. It is two-way superscalar and capable of out-of-order execution. It is used in AMD's Semi-Custom Business Unit as a design for custom processors and is used by AMD in four product families: Kabini aimed at notebooks and mini PCs, Temash aimed at tablets, Kyoto aimed at micro-servers, and the G-Series aimed at embedded applications. Both the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One use SoCs based on the Jaguar microarchitecture, with more powerful GPUs than AMD sells in its own commercially available Jaguar APUs.
Design
32 KiB instruction + 32 KiB data L1 cache per core, L1 cache includes parity error detection 16-way, 1–2 MiB unified L2 cache shared by two or four cores, L2 cache is protected from errors by the use of error correcting code Out-of-order execution and speculative execution Integrated memory controller Two-way integer execution Two-way 128-bit wide floating-point and packed integer execution Integer hardware divider Consumer processors support two DDR3L DIMMs in one channel at frequencies up to 1600 MHz Server processors support two DDR3 DIMMs in one channel at frequencies up to 1600 MHz with ECC As a SoC (not just an APU) it integrates Fusion controller hub Jaguar does not feature clustered multi-thread (CMT), meaning that execution resources are not shared between cores
Instruction-set support The Jaguar core has support for the following instruction sets and instructions: MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4a, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX, F16C, CLMUL, AES, BMI1, MOVBE (Move Big-Endian instruction), XSAVE/XSAVEOPT, ABM (POPCNT/LZCNT), and AMD-V.
Improvements over Bobcat
Over 10% increase in clock frequency Over 15% improvement in instructions per clock (IPC) Added support for SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, CLMUL, MOVBE, AVX, F16C, BMI1 Up to four CPU cores L2 cache is shared between cores FPU datapath width increased to 128-bit Added hardware integer divider Enhanced cache prefetchers Doubled bandwidth of load–store units C6 and CC6 low power states with lower entry and exit latency Smaller, 3.1 mm2 area per core Integrated Fusion controller hub (FCH) Video Coding Engine

Jaguar derivative and successor In 2017, a derivative of the Jaguar microarchitecture was announced in the APU of Microsoft's Xbox One X (Project Scorpio) revision to the Xbox One. The Project Scorpio APU is described as a 'customized' derivative of the Jaguar microarchitecture, utilizing eight cores clocked at 2.3 GHz.
The Puma successor to Jaguar was released in 2014 and targeting entry level notebooks and tablets.
