The sale plan includes chips used to run software on cell phones and chips for network devices, according to the report, which cited unidentified people familiar with the matter. The chip maker said in late April that it would conduct a top to bottom review of the company with an aim to cutting costs in face of intense competition from rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc.
