Playstation 2 Motherboard Models

Most motherboards have several sub-revisions. For slim motherboards, these are listed separately. Not every slim motherboard subrevision in existence might be listed.

GH-00X

GH-001

  • Year 2000
  • Models SCPH-10000
  • Chassis A
  • Japanese launch revision
  • 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

GH-003

<imgur w=240>FXJNbos.png</imgur> <imgur w=240>RubTLd4.png</imgur>

  • Year 2000
  • Models SCPH-15000, SCPH-18000 (besides GH-008)
  • Chassis A (in SCPH-15000), A+ (in SCPH-18000)
  • In SCPH-15000, DVD player still needs to be installed first (in a newer, partially fixed version, that seemingly can also be used on SCPH-10000), but BIOS disallows use of the buggy version 1.00
  • In SCPH-18000, DVD player is preinstalled
  • Updated MechaCon for speedier tray opening/closing

GH-036

  • 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

  • Year 2004 - 2005
  • Models DESR-5500, DESR-7500, DESR-5700, DESR-7700
  • Chassis X
  • Both PSX motherboards have a total of 72 MB RDRAM, unlike normal PS2s' 32 MB
  • Unlike XPD-001, this board has several daughter boards:
    • 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.
