The Xenon motherboard is the first final motherboard and is used in the Original Xbox 360 series. The motherboard has a unique board layout compared to the later boards, especially noticeable with the capacitors around the CPU heatsink, and use of the ANA chip.
Notes
- At some point in 2006, at least one of the manufacturers of the Xenon started applying glue around the CPU and GPU during manufacturing, likely as an attempt to reduce the failure rate
- Some consoles use small yellow 820uF capacitors, while other consoles use silver 820uF solid capacitors
- Some capacitors used for voltage regulation positioned around the CPU heatsink are defective and prone to failure (see Capacitor Plague for details)
