Capri kernel sources also mention BCM28150/BCM28160 which are codenamed Island and appear to be similar to Capri; however, they do not seem to have been included in any consumer-available hardware. | Capri kernel sources also mention BCM28150/BCM28160 which are codenamed Island and appear to be similar to Capri; however, they do not seem to have been included in any consumer-available hardware. | ||
Similarily, mentions of chips codenamed Hera and Samoa appear in some kernel sources, but with no relevant kernel config options - it is unknown which SoCs, if any, they correspond to. | Similarily, mentions of chips codenamed Athena, Hera and Samoa appear in some kernel sources, but with no relevant kernel config options - it is unknown which SoCs, if any, they correspond to. | ||
These chips all share similar components, with a similar internal register layout. They can be grouped into three "generations": the BCM281x5 is first, the BCM21654 is second, and the BCM2166x/BCM23550 is third. | These chips all share similar components, with a similar internal register layout.
