+title: Product Codenames
+...
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This document lists product codenames for some hardware.
+Please note that just because a certain device is listed here does NOT mean
+that it is supported in Libreboot. For supported devices refer to the
+installation documentation.
+
+### A note on GPUs
+
+Some laptops come with and without a discrete GPU (dGPU). Whether the
+motherboard includes one or not can be determined by (in descending order
+of reliability):
+
+- often thorough disassembly and searching for the actual chip
+- looking at white PCB markings near RAM slots
+ and comparing with some known IDs listed below.
+- sometimes by looking at heatsink grills: on
+ discrete GPU laptops these will look orange and on intergrated ones
+ they will appear silver.
+
+List of models and codenames
+============================
+
+### Codenames
+
+- Asus Chromebook C201PA: speedy\_rk3288, veyron-speedy
+
+- Thinkpad X200: Mocha-1
+- Thinkpad X200s (slim): Pecan-1
+- Thinkpad X200 Tablet: Caramel-1
+
+- Thinkpad T400: Malibu-3
+ - with discrete GPU (dGPU), at board(?) revision 7: "MLB3D-7
+ - with only integrated GPU (iGPU), at board(?) revision 7: "MLB3I-7"
+
+- Thinkpad T400s (slim): Shinai-MV
+- Thinkpad R500: Waikiki-3
+
+- Thinkpad T500/W500: Coronado-5
+ - with dGPU (radeon): "COR5D-9"
+ - with only iGPU: "COR5I-9"
+
+- T6x (whole family): Davinci
+- T60
+ - with dGPU (radeon): Magi
+ - with iGPU: Lisa
+
+- With ThinkPads on Intel platforms newer than Montevina (Except T410),
+ the codenames become more consistent. All boards have the following
+ appended based on the type of graphics they have:
+ - with dGPU: SWG (SWitchable Graphics)
+ - with only iGPU: UMA (Unified Memory Access)
+
+ These are the known model codenames:
+ - Thinkpad T410: NOZOMI-1 # EXT/INT
+ - Thinkpad T410s: SHINAI-2 # SWG/UMA
+ - Thinkpad T420: NOZOMI-3 # SWG/UMA
+ - Thinkpad T420s: SHINAI-3 # SWG/UMA
+ - Thinkpad T430: NOZOMI-4 # SWG/UMA
+ - Thinkpad T430s: SHINAI-4 # SWG/UMA
+ - Thinkpad T520: KENDO-1
+ - Thinkpad W520: KENDO-1 WS
+ - Thinkpad T520: KENDO-3
+ - Thinkpad W520: KENDO-3 WS
+ - Thinkpad T530: KENDO-4
+ - Thinkpad W530: KENDO-4 WS
+
+
+### Miscellaneous
+- Calistoga: 945GM chipset family name
+- Napa: calistoga based platform
+- Cantiga: GM45/GS45/PM45 chipset family name.
+ This is the chipset used in T400,X200 and similar.
+- Montevina: cantiga based platform.
+- PMH: the Power Management Hub is a gate array for managing the power
+ up/down sequence. It is additionally tasked with extending EC's I/O.
+ Its? last version was called "Thinker-1".
+- Kozak, Tsurumai, Rinkan: These are power management ICs for Notebook PCs.
+ Tsurumai is marked as "TB62501F" and its datasheet has a description of
+ its operation.
+
