What the E1 Micro-6200T is

The E1 Micro-6200T is the dual core Mullins tablet APU on Socket FT3 for Windows tablets and hybrids. It runs 2 Puma+ cores and 2 threads at 1.0 GHz base with bursts to 1.4 GHz. One megabyte of L2 cache covers tablet apps. Power is 3.95 W with a 2.8 W SDP rating on 28 nm from April 2014.

The SDP rating describes expected power in normal tablet use rather than worst case stress. Two cores handle reading with background sync. Bursts to 1.4 GHz cover UI animation. The soldered BGA package means buyers choose the whole tablet.

Radeon R2 with 128 shaders at 300 MHz drives tablet panels for video. DDR3L-1066 over one channel feeds cores and graphics. The E1 Micro-6200T covers tablets where the lowest Mullins power must still run Windows.

Socket and motherboard compatibility

The E1 Micro-6200T solders to the board on Socket FT3 and cannot be replaced. Tablet storage and memory lock at purchase. Boards wire eMMC with small batteries around the SoC.

FT3 tablets use SoC I/O throughout. Socketed desktops cannot take this BGA chip. The LGA, PGA and BGA: CPU package types explained guide explains soldered tablets.

Memory, PCIe and cooling

DDR3L-1066 over a single channel suits tablets with eMMC storage. Low clocked memory saves battery. Single channel is fixed by the SoC.

PCIe 2.0 with up to 8 lanes from the SoC serves eMMC and radios. Tablets use little expansion. Most builds rely on R2 graphics.

Cooling is passive spreading for 3.95 W with no fan. Skin temperature limits decide sustained bursts. Thin bodies throttle first.

Upgrade paths

On the same socket, the AMD A4 Micro-6400T at 1.0 GHz to 1.6 GHz with four cores above doubles threads, while Beema E1 parts cover notebooks. All share FT3 boards.

Newer tablets moved to Carrizo-L and Stoney Ridge. The E1 Micro-6200T holds Mullins dual core duty at 3.95 W.
