Micro-PGA2
The Micro-PGA2 CPU is my current favorite mobile processor.
Differences between Micro-PGA1 and Micro-PGA2 are:
| Micro-PGA | ||
|---|---|---|
| Micro-PGA1 | Micro-PGA2 | |
| total pins | 615 | 495 |
| VID-pins | 0 | 5 |
| front side bus | 66MHz
100MHz |
66MHz
100MHz 133MHz |
| Not connected pins | 243 | 24 |
| size | ~36 x 32mm | ~34 x 28mm |
The number of pins is equal to the number of balls with the BGA processors.
