Revision as of 06:40, 6 May 2022

Most motherboards have several sub-revisions that are not listed separately. On fat motherboards, the subrevision is denoted by the number after the last hyphen in the item No. On slim motherboards, it is written after the board number (e.g. GH-032-11).

GH-001

<imgur w=240>z85vXfx.jpg</imgur> <imgur w=240>E2TVwAh.jpg</imgur> <imgur w=240>urby5mH.jpg</imgur>

  • Year 2000
  • Models SCPH-10000
  • Chassis A
  • Japanese launch revision
  • Has a green solder mask, which is unique among PS2 consoles
  • Incomplete BIOS (no DVD player); DVD player can be installed onto a memory card using an update disc
  • Buggy DVD player (version 1.00) that allows region free (but 60 Hz only) playback using some trick as well as RGB-output during DVD-playback, which was disabled on later versions
  • Later production models might come with an updated BIOS that blocks installation and startup of DVD player 1.00, as well as an updated MechaCon, just like GH-003 does
  • Known sub-revisions:
    • -12

GH-003

  • In SCPH-18000, it has a different boot-ROM installed on a daughter board on the bottom, while the normal bootrom pads are left unpopulated

  • Year
  • Models
  • Chassis L
  • Introduces new PPC 405 based IOP with external 4MB DDR-SDRAM, which emulates functions of the old MIPS-based IOP as well as SPEED; has some compatibility issues
  • As the functions of SPEED were integrated into the IOP, having an SSBUS-controller became obsolete, thus the combined SSBUS-Controller + SPU2 chip (CXD2955R) that was introduced with GH-026 got "downgraded" to the older SPU2 (+SPU2 RAM) chip (CXD2947R), that was introduced way back with GH-017

    • One large daughter board (XRC-005) with analog video interfaces as well as the Ethernet transceiver
    • One smaller daughter board (XCP-005) with the SPEED chip, an unknown Pioneer chip (PE7003D) and an Altera FPGA (with its ROM and a programming header)
    • A similarily named Pioneer chip (PE7005A) is found in some Pioneer DVR (DVR-920H-S), where it is labelled as an I/O expander in the service manual
    • DESR-7500 and DESR-7700 also have an additional third daugher board on the opposite side of the main board, which contains the iLink-interface controller
    • Some XPD-005 consoles have a small pcb (XDI-002) with few components soldered with two wires directly to the motherboard
  • This board also contains 2 LEDs connected to DVRP which are invisible from the outside but light up when the console is powered on. It is not known what is indicated by these LEDs.
