New Processors From Intel Complete Transition of Its Entire Mobile Product Line to 0.13-Micron Process Technology
Industry's Most Advanced Technology Boosts Performance and Lowers Power Consumption
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 21, 2002--
Intel Corporation today announced seven new mobile processors
built on Intel's industry leading 0.13-micron fabrication process.
Intel has now driven its entire mobile processor product line to the
industry's most advanced process technology. Smaller chip geometries,
enabled by this advanced chip making process, result in lower power
consumption and smaller size while enabling higher levels of
performance.
The three new Low Voltage and Ultra Low Voltage Intel®
Pentium® III processors - M and an Ultra Low Voltage mobile Intel®
Celeron® processor, at speeds up to 866 MHz, offer increased
performance and the world's lowest power consumption(1) for the
ultra-portable mobile PC market segment. For value notebooks, Intel
launched three mobile Celeron processors at speeds up to 1.20 GHz.
Systems based on the new mobile processors will be available from
leading computer makers worldwide including Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett
Packard, IBM, MEI, NEC, Sharp Electronics and Toshiba.
"Intel's mobile processor family is leading the industry in the
next generation process technology conversion by being the first
product line using 0.13-micron in all market segments," said Anand
Chandrasekher, vice president and general manager of Intel's Mobile
Platforms Group. "The mobile Pentium III processor-M family offers
higher performing and lower-power processors for every mobile PC form
factor from the sleekest, mini-notebooks to the most powerful new
notebook designs."
Increased Capabilities for Mobile Processors
Intel's 0.13-micron fabrication process is the industry's most
advanced, high-volume manufacturing technology. Intel's mobile
processors built on 0.13-micron consume up to 40 percent less power,
are 30 percent smaller and 20 percent faster than mobile processors
built on Intel's 0.18-micron process.
The mobile Pentium III processor-M family feature architectural
enhancements including support of Enhanced Intel SpeedStep(TM)
technology that can automatically switch between Maximum Performance
Mode and Battery Optimized Mode, providing the best balance of
performance and low power consumption. The Deeper Sleep mode provides
a power reduction from previous low power sleep states to help extend
battery life -- reaching power levels as low as two tenths of a watt
or less.
