Turion 64 X2 is the name on 17 May 2006 officially introduced by AMD new microprocessor family with two processor cores. Like its counterpart with a core Turion 64, he is especially optimized to operate in low-power notebooks.

Technology

Contrary to its predecessor, the Turion 64 X2 is a derivative of the Athlon 64 X2 CPU, so also has two cores ( dual-core ). Because of this relationship, he also has a dual -channel memory controller with support for DDR-2/667-Speicher. Because of these changes now comes the socket S1 instead of the base 754 are used. The HyperTransport link is also clocked at 800 MHz. The first CPUs were manufactured in 90 nm, newer based on 65 nm technology.

Designations

The designation scheme used has been maintained and is based as far primarily on maximum power consumption and the processing power. In order to distinguish the Turion 64 X2 from Turion 64, the new abbreviation TL has been introduced. Also the Turion 64 is available again with different L2 cache sizes. TL represents the power dissipation. The higher the letter in the alphabet, the less it is. Common names are TK and TL, where TL for mobile use is more appropriate.

Marketing

AMD officially positioned as the Turion 64 X2 Mobile Technology designated marketing concept to that of the Centrino Duo from Intel. Unlike Intel, AMD does not bind the use of the brand name but to the use of certain, mainly in-house chipsets, but leaving manufacturers the choice of components.

Future

As a successor to the Turion 64 X2 processors, AMD has introduced the new processors under the name Turion X2 and Turion X2 Ultra, which come on the new AMD notebook platform "Puma". The new processors have been developed under the code name " Griffin " and make a hybrid between the K9 and K10 - generation dar.

Model data base S1

All processors for socket S1 have a memory controller with two channels (128-bit, dual- channel operation) for DDR2 SDRAM.
