Turion 64 Mobile technology is a new brand name for mobile high-performance single-core microprocessors based on K8 architecture. Besides the new name, these processors use model numbers that are different from all other K8-based CPUs. Turion 64 model numbers consist of two letters and a two digit number. The second letter in the model number tells how much power the processor requires - the closer this letter to Z the more energy efficient the CPU is. Two digits in the model number specify performance relative to other Turion 64 microprocessors - faster processors have higher two-digit number.

Microarchitecture of Turion 64 microprocessors is similar to Mobile Athlon 64 CPUs. Turion 64 processors have single-channel integrated memory controller, one hyper-transport link, 128 KB of level 1 and 512 KB or 1 MB of level 2 cache memory. All Turion 64 processors support SSE3 instructions. The only notable new feature in Turion 64 is a Deeper Sleep power saving mode. This mode was not present in Mobile Athlon 64 and earlier mobile AMD microprocessors.

All ML and MT models of Turion CPUs are compatible with socket 754. MK models are compatible with socket S1.

Production parts

AMD Turion 64 Mobile technology MK-36 - TMDMK36HAX4CM
2000 MHz
512 KB L2 cache
638-pin lidless micro-PGA
All AMD Turion processors with MK-xx model numbers require socket S1. The main advantage of that socket over socket 754 is the type of supported on-chip memory controller. The socket S1 supports dual-channel DDR2 SDRAM controller, which can provide more than 3 times of bandwidth of single-channel DDR-SDRAM memory controller supported by socket 754. The frequency of the HyperTransport link for both sockets is the same - 800 MHz.
AMD Turion 64 Mobile technology ML-30 - TMDML30BKX5LD
1600 MHz
1 MB L2 cache
754-pin lidless organic micro-PGA
AMD Turion 64 Mobile technology ML-32 - TMDML32BKX4LD
1800 MHz
512 KB L2 cache
754-pin lidless organic micro-PGA
