AMD Champlain core

Champlain is a core name of all mobile microprocessors from Danube platform. The core and the platform were introduced in May 2010, when AMD launched several new mobile families, from single-core V Series, and up to quad-core Phenom II Quad-Core mobile. The Champlain is based on K10 microarchitecture, and, depending on the CPU family, is implemented as two different dies. V Series, Athlon II, Turion II and dual-core Phenom II have smaller die with two CPU cores and 1 MB L2 cache per core. Certain die features, like one CPU core and/or 512 KB L2 cache, are disabled for V Series and Athlon II families. Triple- and quad-core Phenom IIs have about 50% larger die with 4 CPU cores and 512 KB L2 cache per core.

New core features:

• Up to 4 microprocessor cores
• Support for DDR3 memory.

Processors with Champlain core can be identified by:

• CPU ID: CPU identification numbers of Champlain CPUs are 100F53 and 100F63. These CPUID numbers are also used by desktop Athlon II families, and mobile Athlon II Neo and Turion II Neo microprocessors.

A list of all AMD families with Champlain-based CPUs is provided in the table below.
