CPU variants

Beyond the well-studied 2A03G, we know of the following CPU revisions, both made by Ricoh and other manufacturers:

RP2A03	M2 duty cycle is 3/4 instead of 5/8. Lacks tonal noise mode. Has broken and disabled programmable interval timer on-die. Other differences?
RP2A03E	no known differences
RP2A03G	reference model
RP2A03H	no known differences
RP2A04	Not actually a CPU at all, just a jumper in a 40-pin PDIP
RP2A07	input clock divider is 16. Changes to noise, DPCM, frame timer tables. Fixed DPCM RDY address bus glitches. Other differences?
RP2A07A	no known differences relative to 2A07letterless
MG-P-501	Micro Genius-made clone. No specifics known.
UA6527	UMC-made clone of 2A03G. Has swapped pulse channel duty cycles.
UA6527P	UMC-made clone of 2A03G for compatibility with NTSC software in PAL countries. input clock divider is 15. Otherwise believed same as 6527. Two revisions exist: before mid-1990 (which has UMC logo on left) and after-mid-1990 (which has UMC logo on top). It is said that old UMC CPU has broken DMC reader function [1]. At least some of CodeMasters' games behave differently on them.
UM6557	Believed to be a 100% duplicate of UA6527, for use in SECAM regions.
UM6561	NES-on-a-chip. CPU half believed identical to UA6527P.
TA-03N	??-made clone of 2A03G
TA-03NP	??-made clone of 2A03G for NTSC compatibility in PAL countries. Input clock divider is 15.
TA-03NP1	??-made clone of 2A03G for NTSC compatibility in PAL countries. Input clock divider is 15. Fixed DPCM problems?
PM03	Gradiente-made clone of 2A03G. [2]

If you know of other differences or other revisions, please add them!
