Product Overview

Intel® Pentium® 4 processors with Hyper-Threading Technology

(HT Technology) provide increased system responsiveness in 

multi-tasking environments and are ideal for next-generation 

multi-threaded applications. Platforms based on Intel Pentium 4

processors with HT Technology can help reduce the total cost 

of ownership for a new generation of advanced, highly differen-

tiated embedded products by providing performance headroom, 

robust I/O, scalability, and quality.

Manufactured on 65-nanometer (nm) process technology with 

a reduced thermal design power (TDP) of 65W, the 3.4 GHz Intel

Pentium 4 processor 651

Δ

with HT Technology offers 2 MB of 

L2 cache. In addition, based on 90-nm process technology, the 

Intel Pentium 4 processors 551

Δ

and 531

Δ

with HT Technology

simplify the transition to 64-bit computing for embedded 

customers developing with Intel® 64 architecture

1

(Intel® 64). 

With an 800 MHz front-side bus and a choice of 1 MB and 2 MB 

of Level 2 Advanced Transfer Cache, Intel Pentium 4 processors

with HT Technology enable highly differentiated and scalable 

embedded solutions within the growing communications, 

interactive client, and industrial automation market segments.

Intel Pentium 4 processors 651, 551 and 531, available in LGA-775

package with integrated heat spreader, are all validated with the

Intel® 915GV and Intel® 945G Express chipsets. In addition, processor

651 extends the selection of Intel Pentium 4 processor-based 

platforms to include the Intel® Q965 Express chipset, while proces-

sors 551 and 531 provide support for the Intel® 865G chipset. 

The 3.0 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor with HT Technology, 

available in 

µ

PGA-478 package, is validated with Intel 865G 

and Intel® 875P chipsets. 

Rapid platform development is supported by the latest operating

systems and Intel® architecture development tools. In addition, Intel

offers validated design schematics, based on the Intel Pentium 4

processor with HT Technology, to rapidly meet unique product 

application requirements. Board solutions are also available from

third-party providers.
