Is it an OMAP 3630 or 3640?

[AJ_EVO]

On the Motodev site it says 3630 (link). On the TI OMAP Wiki it says the 3630 is 720MHz and the 3640 is 1GHz (link). As we know the Droid X is advertised at 1GHz.

So what is the deal? Is it actually a 3640 or an overclocked 3630?

Motorola is saying there is a 1Ghz version of the 3630 called 3630-1000 and that is what is used in the X. take that for what its worth

It's not overclocked. It's a 3630.

It's not overclocked. It's a 3630.

OMAP3630 - 720 MHz ARM Cortex A8 + PowerVR SGX530 GPU + 430 MHz C64x+ DSP + ISP (Image Signal Processor)

I guess a variation of the 3630, as thenew3 said, is the only info we can go off.

3630...but does it really matter? You won't be able to tell a difference between to two anyways

It isn't the 3640, the Droid X has the OMAP3630 in it. Both chips have the same ARM core in them, but the 3630 handles memory better.

It isn't overclocked either. I saw that someone posted about the manufacturing process and bining parts (he was talking about PC chips). It is the same process for cell phone chips. Basically you test the die on the wafer and use the ones that will run at 1GHz (with margin).
