1.2.2 CPU
The MIC-3392 supports the latest Intel Core Duo/Solo and Intel Core 2 Duo proces-
sor family with clock frequencies up to 2.16 GHz and a Front-Side Bus (FSB) up to
667 MHz.
Intel Core Duo processors are validated with the Mobile Intel 945GM/945GME
Express chipset. This chipset provides greater flexibility for developers of embedded
applications by offering improved graphics and increased I/O bandwidth over previ-
ous Intel chipsets, as well as remote asset management capabilities, and improved
storage speed and reliability.
Currently supported processors are listed in the table below. The Intel Core Duo con-
sists of two cores and up to 2 MB L2 cache shared by both cores. The Intel Core 2
Duo consists of two cores, up to 4 MB L2 cache shared by both cores.
1.2.3 Processor
1.2.4 BIOS
An 8 Mbit Firmware Hub (FWH) contains a board-specific BIOS that is designed to
meet industrial and embedded system requirements.
1.2.5 Chipset
The Mobile Intel 945GM Express / 945GME chipset provides excellent flexibility for
developers of embedded applications by offering improved graphics and increased I/
O bandwidth over previous Intel chipsets, as well as remote asset management
capabilities and improved storage speed and reliability. Features include an inte-
grated 32-bit 3D graphics engine based on Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
(Intel GMA 950) architecture.
The Mobile Intel 945GM Express/945GME chipset consists of the Intel 82945GM
Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and Intel I/O Controller Hub 7-M (ICH7-
M). It delivers outstanding system performance through high bandwidth interfaces
such as PCI Express, Serial ATA and Hi-Speed USB 2.0.
