What was the result with running dual Tillamooks? I recall reading somewhere that Intel removed SMP on the Tillamooks entirely, not just disabled it. Probably to reduce the transistor count. I tried dual Tillamooks on a socket 5 system using Evergreen and Kingston adapters, but it will only ever see one CPU. If I use the regular P233MMX chips, the system detects both.

At least the corresponding pins are N/C or otherwise used according to the datasheet.
It explicitly mentions the missing SMP.

Differences from Desktop Processors
The following features have been eliminated in the low-power embedded Pentium processor with
MMX technology: Upgrade, Dual Processing (DP), and Master/Checker functional redundancy.
Table 1 lists the corresponding pins that exist on the Pentium processor with MMX technology but
have been removed on the low-power embedded Pentium processor with MMX technology.
Table 1. Signals Removed from the Low-Power Embedded Pentium® Processor
with MMX™ Technology
Signal Function
ADSC#
Additional Address Status. This signal is mainly used for large or standalone L2
cache memory subsystem support required for high-performance desktop or

server models.
BRDYC#
Additional Burst Ready. This signal is mainly used for large or standalone L2
cache memory subsystem support required for high-performance desktop or

server models.
CPUTYP CPU Type. This signal is used for dual processing systems.
D/P# Dual/Primary processor identification. This signal is only used for an upgrade
processor.
FRCMC# Functional Redundancy Checking. This signal is only used for error detection via
processor redundancy and requires two Pentium processors (master/checker).
PBGNT# Private Bus Grant. This signal is only used for dual processing systems.

PBREQ# Private Bus Request. This signal is used only for dual processing systems.

PHIT# Private Hit. This signal is only used for dual processing systems.

PHITM# Private Modified Hit. This signal is only used for dual processing systems.

you can never be sure, but why should the datasheet lie in case of the pinout?

I don’t have dual tillamooks but once tried one and a regular 233 one in master and vice versa it only ever detected one so yeah, I believe no bueno on dual unfortunately

But…..

There exist rumors of some really old socket 5 boards that used non intel smp tech before intel came out with it being able to run dual k6 with adapters.

That may work with tillamooks

I decided to try the tillamook in my iWill p55xb2 motherboard and it didn’t go well until I did ALL of the jumper mods shown in the linked pic. (Except the extended 4x mod, not shown)
I even found a jumper setting that enabled 300mhz without having to do the extended 4x mod.

Enabled 300MHz? Are you just doing 4x75, or did you find a way to get 4.5X?

4x75 mobo won’t go higher

It doesn't matter what multipliers the motherboard supports. You can get around that with a little soldering.
I was just wondering if the Tillamook 266 supports 4.5x (documented or not). There is a Tillamook 300 that does, though not in this package.

How do you mean not in this package? I do have a 300mhz example on a socket7 adapter and if I am correct did post some pictures of it earlier.

You have a golden tiger?

I could not find any tillamook 266MHz in socket 7 format?

Cheers,

Is that a question or a statement?

they pop up on ebay from time to time

Yes, that a question, I ended that sentence with a "?".

Cheers,

Now that you mention it, they don't seem to be as readily available as they used to...

Maybe because of this thread 🤣

SL2Z4 is the 266 MHz mobile Tillamook. https://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/SL/SL2Z4.html
They used to be a consistent $17 on eBay, then $20, then $24, then *poof*

Maybe us collector got them all 😁

Did any non tillamook intel cpus ever get the 4x multi?

I’m trying to figure out if maybe a pre tillamook mobile may have had it??

I’m trying to figure out how to do better than dual 233 on my dual board that is stuck at 66fsb
I can of course do k63+ but not in dual, so it’s not the same 🙁

It is because of this that a Pentium MMX-166 can outperform its 200MHz Classic brother.

🤣 what bullshit, imagine thinking a MMX could compare to the God tier Pentium Pro

That quote is about the 166MHz Pentium MMX outperforming the 200MHz Pentium non-MMX though.
