Intel Corp. expanded its Intel Pentium M processor and Intel Celeron M processor families with parts aimed at the mini-notebook, sub-notebook and tablet PC segments that represent small mobile PCs typically weighing around 3 pounds.
The Santa Clara, Calif., semiconductor supplier announced its latest parts a day after rival AMD bolstered its mobile processor offerings with several new parts in its Athlon line.
Intel's new offerings include the Intel Pentium M processor Low Voltage 738, the Intel Pentium M processor Ultra-Low Voltage 733 and 723, and the Intel Celeron M processor Ultra Low Voltage 353. All four processors are based on Intel's mobile micro-architecture and built using Intel's high-volume 90-nanometer process technology.
The new Pentium M processors feature a 2MB Level 2 cache, a power-optimized 400 MHz system bus, and enhanced data pre-fetcher and enhanced register access manager for fast execution of instructions at low power. The processors also include Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology, which helps optimize application performance and power consumption to enable extended battery life, said the company.
The Intel Celeron M Ultra Low Voltage 353 processor is compatible with the Intel 855 chipset family as well as the Intel 852GM chipset to enable cost-effective, scalable platforms for system manufacturers, the company said.
List prices for the new Pentium M processors range from $241 to $284 each in 1,000-piece quantities, while the Celeron M Ultra Low Voltage 353 processor lists for $161 each in similar quantities.
