Packaging[edit]
Early Athlon microprocessors were packaged with a separate L2$ into a single cartridge. The cartridge connected into AMD's Slot A (similar to Intel's Slot 1). Those processors included Argon, Pluto, and Orion-core based processors. Later microprocessors (starting with Thunderbird core-based) introduced on-die L2$ simplifying the packing complexity, allowing it to use a standard PGA (Socket A).
Members[edit]
Athlon had 4 iterations of cores: Argon, Pluto, Orion, Thunderbird.
Argon core[edit]
The Argon, released in 1999, uses Slot A, has a double data rate front side bus operating at 100 MHz (having an effective bus speed of 200 MHz). Argon microprocessors were manufactured in 250 nm process.
Model | Frequency | L2$ | TDP |
---|---|---|---|
Athlon 500 | 500 MHz | 512 kB | 42 W |
Athlon 550 | 550 MHz | 512 kB | 46 W |
Athlon 600 | 600 MHz | 512 kB | 50 W |
Athlon 650 | 650 MHz | 512 kB | 54 W |
Athlon 700 | 700 MHz | 512 kB | 50 W |
Pluto core[edit]
The Pluto core-based microprocessors were released in late 1999 and early 2000 and use Slot A. They have a double data rate front side bus operating at 100 MHz (having an effective bus speed of 200 MHz). Pluto microprocessors were manufactured in 180 nm process.
Model | Frequency | L2$ | TDP |
---|---|---|---|
Athlon 550 | 550 MHz | 512 kB | 31 W |
Athlon 600 | 600 MHz | 512 kB | 34 W |
Athlon 650 | 650 MHz | 512 kB | 36 W |
Athlon 700 | 700 MHz | 512 kB | 39 W |
Athlon 750 | 750 MHz | 512 kB | 40 W |
Athlon 800 | 800 MHz | 512 kB | 48 W |
Athlon 850 | 850 MHz | 512 kB | 50 W |
Athlon 900 | 900 MHz | 512 kB | 60 W |
Athlon 950 | 950 MHz | 512 kB | 62 W |
Orion core[edit]
Like Pluto core, Orion microprocessors used Slot A.
Model | Frequency | L2$ | TDP |
---|---|---|---|
Athlon 1000 | 1000 MHz | 512 kB | 65 W |
Thunderbird core[edit]
Thunderbird-based microprocessors were manufactured in both cartridge form (Slot A) and as PGA (Socket A).
Model | Frequency | L2$ | TDP | Socket |
---|---|---|---|---|
