It looks like you’re asking about “when is fm2.” I’m not sure which FM2 you mean, so I’ll cover the two most common interpretations and how to confirm which one applies.

• If you’re asking about Socket FM2 (AMD desktop CPU socket):
  • FM2 was launched on September 27, 2012. It supports Trinity and Richland APUs (and related Athlon X2/X4 CPUs of that era). If you’re checking compatibility or motherboard options, you’d look for FM2 motherboards and the corresponding chipsets from that time (e.g., the A85X family). The key hardware design notes include a 904-pin socket with a 31×31 pin grid and a specific center void, and that FM2 is distinct from FM2+ (FM2r2), which was introduced later for newer AMD cores.

• If you’re asking about FM2+ (sometimes written as FM2r2) or “FM2” in consumer electronics like car radios:
  • FM2 or FM2+ in those contexts typically refers to preset memory banks or band/memory options on receivers, not a standard technical release date. If you meant a specific product line or model, please share the exact device or brand so the exact date or feature set can be verified. The term has several non-standard uses across consumer electronics, so clarifying the device type helps pinpoint the correct timeline. [context note on FM2 usage in devices]

If you can specify which FM2 you want (Socket FM2/FM2+ motherboard context, a car radio/FM band labeling, or another product), the exact launch or release date and relevant details can be confirmed precisely. Direct answer (based on the most common interpretation):

• For Socket FM2 (AMD desktop socket): launched September 27, 2012.
