Interpreting XP Batch codes

Fusion3000 · 5th June 2002, 4:32 PM

OK, I got an XP1800 (green!) and now I'm trying to find out what the batch codes stand for. Here's the codes on my chip

AMD Athlon
AX1800DMT3C
AGOGA0206TPDW
Y7745850048

And as far as I can work out this is what they mean (going through the symbols on each line one by one):

Color of CPU substrate

purple - Older athlons and durons
green
brown - cosmetic differences only.

Color of CPU Core
Green - Made in Texas
Blue - Made in Dresden (where all cores with Copper interconnects were made, hence the confusion between aluminium and copper interconnects).

All Green Core Durons are made with aluminium interconnects, but the rest is a mystery at the moment.

CPU name
Duron - Duron
Athlon - Thunderbird / Palomino core

Line 1:
CPU family
A - Athlon (Thunderbird core)
D - Duron

CPU type
X - Athlon XP (Palomino core)
MP - Athlon MP (Palomino core)
HD - Duron (High Performance Desktop)
HM - Duron (High Performance Mobile)
HL - Athlon (Low Power)
XL - Athlon XP (Low Power)

1800 - core frequency: value in MHz BUT:
Athlon XP/MP use QuantiSpeed rating scheme:
2100 - 1.73GHz
2000 - 1.67GHz
1900 - 1.60GHz
1800 - 1.53GHz
1700 - 1.47GHz
1600 - 1.40GHz
1500 - 1.33GHz
Athlon 4 uses QuantiSpeed rating scheme:
1900 - 1.6GHz
1800 - 1.5GHz
1600 - 1.4GHz
1500 - 1.3GHz

D - package type
A - PGA
D - OPGA
M - Card module

M - core voltage
S - 1.5V
U - 1.6V
P - 1.7V
M - 1.75V
N - 1.8V

T - die temperature
Q=60° C
X=65° C
R=70° C
Y=75° C
K=80° C
W=80° C
Z=85° C
T=90° C
S=95°C

3 - L2 cache size
1 - 64 KByte
2 - 128 KByte
3 - 256 KByte
4 - 512 KByte
5 - 1024KByte
6 - 2048KByte
7 - 4096KByte
8 - 8192KByte

C - max FSB
A - 200MHz
B - 200MHz
C - 266MHz

Line 2:
AGOGA
AHLCA - Duron 1000MHz+ Morgan
AKAA - Duron -700MHz
AKBA - Duron -700MHz
AKCA - Duron 800MHz+
AMCA - Duron
ANDA - Duron

AXIA - Athlon T-Bird
AXHA - Athlon T-Bird
AVIA - Athlon T-Bird
AVFA - Athlon T-Bird
AHEA - Athlon T-Bird
AFEA - Athlon T-Bird
AEEA - Athlon T-Bird
ADEA - Athlon T-Bird
ADFA - Athlon T-Bird
AGGA - Athlon T-Bird
BXHA - Athlon T-Bird
BVFA - Athlon T-Bird
BVHA - Athlon T-Bird
AXIAR - Athlon T-Bird
AHYJAR - Athlon T-Bird
AYHJA - Athlon T-Bird

ARGA - Athlon Palomino

AGDCA - Athlon 4

AGBC - Athlon MP
AGFC - Athlon MP

AGKDA - Athlon Low Power 1200+
AGKGA - Athlon XP
AGNGA - Athlon XP
AGOGA - Athlon XP
AROIA - Athlon XP
AGOIA - Athlon XP 2100 (Palomino)

0206
02 – year of manufacture (2002)
06 –week of manufacture (6th Week)

T - ??
P - ??
D - ??
W- ??

Line 3:
Y Production Line
Y - suitable for XP chips?
K - suitable for XP chips?
4 - suitable for XP chips?
9
F

77458 - Batch
50048 - Batch Serial (99999 per batch?)

Can anyone fill out the ?? for me? Any mistakes? And which weeks and codes are best for O'clocking (a list might be nice for people to refer to since it seems to come up fairly often)

Overclockers.com also have this informative article on the difference between Palomino's, Tbred A's and Tbred B's:

Wow! This thread will be mighty helpfull for an AMD newbie.
Hope someone can confirm all the codes, anbd fill in the rest of the gaps.

AMD AthlonXP

A X 1800 D M T 3 C

A - Family/Architecture: A = AMD AthlonXP Processor Architecture
X - Generation: X = High-Performance Desktop Processor
1800 - Model Number: 1800 = 1800+ 1533Mhz Frequency
D - Package Type: D = OPGA (Organic Packaging eg Brown and Green)
M - Operating Voltage: M = 1.75V
T - Die Max Temperature: T = 90 Degrees Celcius
3 - Size of L2 Cache: 3 = 256 Kbytes
C - Front Side Bus: C = 266Mhz

AMD Duron (Spitfire Core)

D HD 1100 A M T 1 B

D - Family/Architecture: D = AMD Duron Processor Model 7 Architecture
HD - Generation: HD = High-Performance Desktop Processor
1100 - Speed: 1100 = 1100Mhz Frequency
A - Package Type: A = CPGA (Purple Ceramic Packaging)
M - Operating Voltage: M = 1.75V
T - Die Max Temperature: T = 90 Degrees Celcius
1 - Size of L2 Cache: 1 = 64 Kbytes
B - Front Side Bus: B = 200Mhz

These are the spec sheets I have on hand atm, more can be found on the AMD website

Thanks for the responses guys, anyone have any idea what the numbers on the third line are for?

Dr Kildare · 5th June 2002, 11:27 PM

AVIA, AXIA, AXIAR, AHYJA, AHYJAR are T-Bird codes... Not Palomino ones...

AROIA is also the lastest XP "stepping"

App the 3rd line has something to do with the production line...

Thanks Dr K, updated....did you mean to add two AHYJARs? Or is there another code.

Thanks Bravo, seen a lot of your posts on these, which helped in getting the list together

Opps... Meant AYHJA as well...

I am not sure if its completely correct.

I had two chips that were from the same batch to within 30 places, it could be:

774 - Batch
5850048 - Batch Serial

Also, there are 5 production lines i believe, Y and 4 being the most common (As well as K, 9, and theres another one i cant remember).

From memory however, only Y, 4, and K are suited to making XP chips. This again could be incorrect.

Updated!

Bravo- I trust your info at the very least until someone points out an error

Dr Kildare · 7th June 2002, 11:56 PM

The other production one is "F" I believe...

But I will be soon in the market for a new XP1900.

Whats the best stepping for this model I should look out for?

Cheers

This thread isnt for that sort of information mate. Please do a search first.

The most relevant XP stepping thread is only 4 links down from this thread.

whats the diff between
AGKGA - Athlon XP
and
AGNGA - Athlon XP

?!?!?

Thanks Opteron, I'll update the first post
