TBM consists of instructions complementary to the instruction set started by BMI1; their complementary nature means they do not necessarily need to be used directly but can be generated by an optimizing compiler when supported. AMD introduced TBM together with BMI1 in its Piledriver line of processors; AMD Jaguar and Zen- based processors do not support TBM.

Used for : AMD APU, AMD Athlon, AMD FX, AMD Sempron
