BEE-012
Jetzt fehlt nur noch der andere Joy-Con, die Konsole und die Retail Box, dann haben wir alles gesehen.
Der Nachfolgende Switch 2 Leak ist NSFM – Not Safe for Manufactoring (explicit nudity)
Samsung hatte wohl den heißesten Deal, den Nintendo nicht ablehnen konnte. Das komplette all in one package…
“re: Chip markings
S – Vendor ID (SPIL)
TW – Country of origin (Taiwan)
24… – Manu year & week (2024 ???)
SNW8VF.M0P – Fab code (S) + lot code (NW8VF) + ??? (M0P)Here are all the chips I can identify. Some may have already been covered by earlier posts. I’m not reading most of the current discussion.
Nvidia GMXL30-R-A1
The SoC. Not sure why they thought this part code needed to be censored, but that’s what it is.
SKhynix H58GE6AK8B X107 425A
The 6GB LPDDR5X RAM. As I mentioned, Nintendo is multi-sourcing RAM from Micron, Samsung, and Hynix. We already had Micron’s part number, MT62F768M64D4EK-026, and now we have the one for Hynix. Hynix’s spotty parts catalog doesn’t have this exact part number, but has several similar ones (H58GE6AK8QX107N, H58GE6AK8VX107N, H58GE6AK8PX107N), although those are x16 and not x64 like the Switch 2 will use. Micron’s part was 7500 MT/s, while Hynix doesn’t seem to make any of those, so it’s likely that Nintendo is taking the 8533 MT/s parts they have available and clocking them for 7500 MT/s.
GL852G KLA0160 4227800
This is GL852G-OHY60 from Genesys Logic, a USB 2.0 hub controller which we recently discovered is not used in the dock (which is using the same USB 3.0 hub as previous Switch models). Since it’s in the console, it’s most likely used for the Joy-Cons.
B2349 GCBRG HAC STD T2010423
The Lotus game card ASIC (“GC bridge”) from MegaChips. Evidently this is similar enough to the previous models’ that it has the same kind of part number, and still includes HAC, the product code for the Switch, rather than being a new chip with a BEE designation. That said, it’s possible that this is for game card backwards compatibility only, and new game cards will be read by a different chip. There is another IC nearby in the photo, but its markings aren’t visible.
PI2SSD 3212NCE 2344EG
This is PI2SSD3212NCEX from Diodes Incorporated. This was first seen in May (March data), but I didn’t post about it because it seemed like a fairly generic IC. Looking into it further, it’s actually specifically for memory controlling applications. Based on its placement, it seems to be related to the game card slot. I don’t think the current Switch models have a similar chip, though I don’t know for sure, so this might indicate what direction Nintendo went in for the card interface (though not the storage type) for new Switch 2 game cards. If so, that would also support the inclusion of GCBRG HAC STD being for BC only. I’ll let someone else who knows more about memory reader interfaces delve into this.
[Realtek logo] ALC5658 [illegible] [illegible]
This is ALC5658-CG from Realtek, the audio codec chip.
IG2200 [illegible] [illegible] [illegible]
This is another chip from the March batch I didn’t post about, because I couldn’t (and still can’t) find any information about it. Whatever it is, it seems to be from a vendor that isn’t providing any other chips for either the current Switch models or Switch 2, and it seems to be at least a non-trivial part (i.e. not a capacitor or voltage switch or something). Learning that it’s inside the console dismisses some possibilities I’d considered, like the Joy-Con IMU for gyro, or an IR emitter or similar part. I don’t know whether its placement near the audio codec chip means anything.
[T] [illegible]
The chip in the far corner is the THGJFGT1E45BAILHW0 256 GB UFS 3.1 storage from Kioxia. This is identifiable because of the Toshiba/Kioxia “T” chip maker mark, but the part number is illegible. Nintendo is multi-sourcing storage from Kioxia, Samsung, and Hynix.
[illegible]
The large, blank-looking chip in the middle is going to be MT3681AEN, the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo chip from MediaTek.
Some other notable chips that are probably on the board, but I can’t identify, are the CYPD6228-96BZXI USB-C controller from Cypress/Infineon and PN7160B1HN/C100 NFC reader from NXP. Obviously there are also going to be other things like a battery IC, power management ICs, etc. The SD Express card reader is probably on a daughterboard.
Edit: The two identical chips in between the codec/IG200 and the back of the SoC/RAM shield could be one CYPD6228-96BZXI for each of the two USB-C ports. The large circle mark on them definitely looks like it could be Cypress.
Edit 2: Not sure why I said the SD Express reader is “probably” on a daughterboard, since we already know that a BEE-SD-01 daughterboard exists for it. The microphone is also on a separate board, BEE-MIC-01.
Edit 3: I forgot that every single part in Hynix’s catalog seems to be listed as x16, so that’s probably just an error.”
