Mobile CPU Specifications
AMD Mobile Athlon 4 CPUs
AMD Mobile Athlon XP (0.13
microns) - On April 17, 2002, AMD announced the new mobile 1600+
and 1700+ AMD Athlon XP processors, the first AMD processors manufactured
on its state-of-the-art 0.13 micron technology.
On July 15, 2002 AMD announced the 1800+ Athlon XP processor and on
September 25, 2002 AMD announced the 1900+ and 2000+ Mobile Athlon XP
processors and on November 11, 2002 AMD introduced the 2002+ Mobile
Athlon XP.
The mobile AMD Athlon XP processor based on the 0.13
micron technology maintains Socket A and pin compatibility with AMDs
mobile processors manufactured on 0.18 micron technology, while adding
a 266MHz front-side bus option to enable greater data throughput.
The mobile AMD Athlon XP processor also features AMD PowerNow!
technology, the industrys most sophisticated power management
solution, and QuantiSpeed architecture, which delivers extreme
performance for the Microsoft® Windows® XP operating system.
AMD Athlon 4 "+" (0.18
microns). In January, 2002 AMD introduced the new mobile AMD Athlon
4 1500+ (1.3 GHz) processor with QuantiSpeed architecture. On March
13, 2002 the AMD Athlon 4 1600+ was announced.
QuantiSpeed architecture incorporates a nine-issue, fully pipelined
superscalar micro-architecture, a superscalar floating-point unit, hardware
data pre-fetch, and exclusive and speculative Translation Look-aside
Buffers (TLB).
Otherwise the features of this CPU are similar to its
mobile Athlon predesessor.
AMD Mobile Athlon 4 - On
May 13, 2001, AMD announced the mobile Athlon 4 processor, at speeds
of 1GHz, 950MHz, 900MHz and 850MHz.
In August 2001, AMD announced the 1.1 GHz mobile Athlon 4 and in November,
2001 AMD introduced the 1.2 GHz mobile Athlon 4.
The AMD Athlon 4 features a new lower power design for
notebook computing, 384 KB of on-chip, full-speed cache with hardware
data pre-fetch (256KB of on-chip level (L2) cache and 128 Kbytes of
on-chip level (L1) cache), a superscalar floating-point unit, support
for AMD's 3DNow! Professional instructions for enhanced multimedia capabilities,
and AMD PowerNow! technology for extended battery life.
The mobile AMD Athlon 4 processor is compatible with AMD's Socket A
infrastructure, and supports the advanced 200MHz AMD Athlon front-side
bus.
Mobile AMD Athlon 4 processors are manufactured using AMD's 0.18-micron
copper process technology in Fab 30 at Dresden, Germany.
