There are several different embedded controller chips that have been
|
||
|
used over the thinkpad range. This file lists the ones that we have
|
||
|
seen and is a place for recording information about them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is not intended to be an exhaustive list, as that would require
|
||
|
schematics, physical inspection or reverse engineering the EC firmware
|
||
|
for a lot of different models.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ThinkPad T4x/p and R5x/p:
|
||
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
Renesas H8S/2161BV
|
||
|
(source: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=20958)

|
ThinkPad x220:
|
||
|
--------------
|
||
|
Renesas H8S R4F2113NFT-1-GP
|
||
|
Looks very similar to the 2161BV

|
|
||
|
ThinkPad xx30 series:
|
||
|
---------------------
|
||
|
SMSC/Microchip MEC1619L-AJZP-GP
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is a 32-bit ARC core CPU, with most of the firmware written using
|
||
|
the ARCompact variant of the instruction set
|
||
|

Thinkpad x250:
|
||
|
--------------
|
||
|
An ARCompact instruction set CPU, so probably a MEC1619
