What the A10 Micro-6700T is
The A10 Micro-6700T tops Mullins tablets on Socket FT3 for premium hybrids. It runs 4 Puma+ cores and 4 threads at 1.2 GHz base with bursts to 2.2 GHz. Two megabytes of L2 cache cover tablet multitasking. Power is 4.5 W with a 2.8 W SDP rating on 28 nm from April 2014.
The 2.2 GHz burst leads all Mullins parts in single thread response. Four threads handle detachable productivity with background sync. Radeon R6 with 128 shaders at 500 MHz leads Mullins graphics for video. The soldered package means the hybrid choice locks everything.
DDR3L-1333 over one channel feeds cores and graphics. The A10 Micro-6700T covers premium convertibles where top Mullins threads with R6 must fit 4.5 W.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The A10 Micro-6700T solders to the board on Socket FT3 and cannot be replaced. Premium hybrid memory and SSD lock at purchase. Boards wire high resolution eDP panels with small batteries.
FT3 tablets share SoC I/O. The LGA, PGA and BGA: CPU package types explained guide explains soldered limits.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
DDR3L-1333 over a single channel suits premium hybrids. Low speed memory saves battery. Single channel is fixed.
PCIe 2.0 with up to 8 lanes from the SoC serves storage and radios. Hybrids use little wired expansion. R6 graphics cover detachable displays.
Cooling is passive for 4.5 W with skin limits. Bursts to 2.2 GHz trim under sustained load. Thin hybrids throttle first.
Upgrade paths
On the same socket, the AMD A4 Micro-6400T at 1.0 GHz to 1.6 GHz below saves cost with R3 graphics, while the AMD A6 Micro-6500T at 5 W covers notebooks. All share FT3 boards.
Newer tablets moved past Mullins. The A10 Micro-6700T remains the Mullins tablet lead.
