Hardware Functional Overview 4-5
Features summary of the Mobile Pentium II CPU:
n
233 and 266 MHz clock speeds: Mobile Pentium II processors deliver
higher Intel mobile processor performance - offering a 10-35%
performance improvement over mobile Pentium processors with MMX
technology at equivalent MHz.
n
Compact Form-Factors: To accommodate mobile PCs of various sizes,
weights, and price points, mobile Pentium II processors are available in
Intel Mobile Module or Mini-Cartridge package. This notebook only
supports IMM. Intel's Mobile Module combines the CPU, high-speed L1
and L2 cache, and other supporting components, into a convenient all-
in-one unit.
n
0.25 Micron Technology: mobile Pentium II processors are built using
Intel's breakthrough 0.25 micron manufacturing process. This innovative
process makes it possible for these CPUs to include over 7.5 million
transistors in the core - resulting in more power in less space.
n
Dual Independent Bus: The mobile Pentium II processor's Dual
Independent Bus (DIB) architecture offers up to three times the
bandwidth performance over single-bus processors. By combining two
independent system buses for simultaneous parallel access to data,
mobile Pentium II processors provide an open road for high-demand
applications.
n
Dynamic Execution: Like their desktop counterparts, mobile Pentium II
processors combine three innovative data-processing techniques to
manipulate data more intelligently and efficiently. These techniques
predict and analyze software instructions to optimize processor
workload.
n
Wired for Management Support: Promoting reduced Total Cost of
Ownership, mobile Pentium II processors conform to Intel's Wired for
Management (WfM) specification. These processors benefit from
features such as self-testing circuitry, advanced power management, and
instrumentation for system monitoring.
n
Additional Innovations: While advancing mobile PC performance to
even higher standards, the family of mobile Pentium II processors now
integrate 512K PBSRAM L2 cache, Quick Start and Deep Sleep modes,
thermal sensing, and voltage ID encoding.
n
Processor Core Voltage Regulation: Supports 5V to 20V input voltage.
Both CPU (2.5V) and I/O voltage (3.3V) are supplied by the module.
n
Ready for new technologies such as Windows 98 and NT 5.0.
