===============================================
Intel Processors

Intel® Pentium® M Processor
The Intel Pentium M Processor is the first-ever to be designed from the ground up for mobile computing, allowing systems to be thin, light, and have long battery life. The Pentium® M processor incorporates innovative power-management features that enable extended battery time while still delivering the power to run robust applications delivering the excellent balance of mobility and performance. Combine this processor with the Intel 855/915 Chipset Families and the Intel PRO Wireless technology to get the Intel Pentium M processor with Centrino technology (see below). This processor is great for people on the go who are running applications like word processing, spreadsheets, databases, etc., as well as running productivity applications, doing presentations, and working wirelessly on a regular basis.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intel® CentrinoTM Mobile Technology
Intel Centrino mobile technology is a great set of technologies including the Pentium M processor, Intel 855/915 Chipset Families, and Intel PRO Wireless Mini-PCI card. Centrino mobile technology is not a processor alone, but rather is a brand umbrella for these 3 parts. The Intel PRO Wireless mini-PCI card allows you to connect to 802.11 wireless networks and the Pentium M processor enables thin, light systems with long battery life. Put this all together and you get a system that is easy to carry, easy to connect, and easy to use for a long time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intel Pentium® 4 Processor
The Intel Pentium 4 processor for the desktop provides solid performance on today's high-end applications. The Pentium 4 processor also offers excellent performance for emerging web-based activities and multitasking-oriented users. This desktop processor also offers a great value when used in notebooks1. It can deliver significant power and performance at a great price. This is good for customers looking for desktop power in a notebook and who are not as concerned with size and weight. Ideal for people who will be running mainstream applications like internet surfing, digital picture editing, multimedia presentations, word processing, spreadsheets, and basic gaming.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intel® Celeron® M Processor
Based on an architecture designed specifically for mobile computing, the Intel® Celeron® M Processor processor delivers a balanced level of mobile performance technology and exceptional value for notebook users.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intel Celeron®
The Intel Celeron processor is designed to bring a balanced level of proven technology and value to basic PC desktops. With the Intel Celeron processor you can expect an affordable and reliable PC for your home or home office to meet your basic computing needs, such as e-mailing friends and relatives, tracking home finances, and running interactive or educational software for your kids1.

Glossary

0.09 micron technology
0.09 micron is a manufacturing term that refers to the feature size of the poly-silicon gate in the microprocessor. This feature size has a direct correlation to the speed and power requirements of the microprocessor. As feature sizes are reduced, the process speed (MHz) increases while the power requirements decrease correspondingly. 0.09 micron is currently the smallest feature size available in high volume manufacturing, and is used for the Intel® Pentium® M processor.

Architecture
Basic design of a microprocessor. It may include processor technology and/or other architectural enhancements.

Bus

The bus is a set of conductors that connect all of the functional units in a computer, as well as external memory, peripherals, or networks. Higher System Bus Speed can enhance a computer's performance and speed.

Cache
A temporary storage for frequently accessed or recently accessed data. Having certain data stored in a cache speeds up the operation of the computer. Cache size is measured in megabytes (MB) or kilobytes (KB).

Chipset
The chipset controls the system and its capabilities. All components communicate with the processor through the chipset - it is the hub of all data transfer. The chipset uses the DMA controller and the bus controller to organize the steady flow of data that it controls. The chipset is a series of chips attached directly to the motherboard, and is usually second in size only to the processor. Chipsets are integrated (soldered onto the motherboard) and are not upgradeable without a new motherboard.

Clock Speed
Speed of the processor's internal clock which dictates how fast the processor can process the data. Clock speed is usually measured in GHz (gigahertz, or billions of pulses per second).

Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® technology
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® technology enables real-time dynamic switching of the voltage and frequency between two performance modes based on processor demand. This occurs by switching the system bus ratios, core operating voltage, and core processor speeds without resetting the system.

Front Side Bus
The connecting path between the processor and other key components such as the memory controller hub. FSB speed is measured in GHz or MHz.

Intel® NetBurst micro-architecture
This is the Pentium 4-M internal chip architecture. The NetBurst micro-architecture delivers a number of innovative features including Hyper Pipelined Technology, 400 MHz System Bus, Execution Trace Cache, and Rapid Execution Engine. It also delivers a number of enhanced features, including Advanced Transfer Cache, Advanced Dynamic Execution, Enhanced Floating Point and Multimedia Unit, and Streaming SIMD Extensions 2

Level 1 Cache
A small, fast memory cache that is built in to the main chip and helps speed access to important and frequently-used data.

Level 2 Cache
A collection of built-in memory chips, slower than the Level 1 Cache but faster than the main memory area. Level 2 (L2) Cache can help speed the operation of some applications.

P6 Microarchitecture
This is the Celeron processor's internal chip architecture. It's features include multiple branch prediction, dataflow analysis and speculative execution all of which help to ensure the efficiency of the processor and to boost overall performance.
