Datasheet

In addition to supporting the existing Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2), there are 

13 new instructions which extend the capabilities of Intel processor technology further. 

These new instructions are called Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3). 3D graphics 

and other entertainment applications, such as gaming, will have the opportunity to take 

advantage of these new instructions as platforms with the processor and SSE3 become 

available in the market place.

The processor’s FSB utilizes a split-transaction, deferred reply protocol. The FSB uses 

Source-Synchronous Transfer (SST) of address and data to improve performance by 

transferring data four times per bus clock. The 4X data bus can deliver data four times 

per bus clock and is referred as “quad-pumped” or 4X data bus, the address bus can 

deliver addresses two times per bus clock and is referred to as a “double-clocked” or 2X 

address bus. Working together, the 4X data bus and the 2X address bus provide a data 

bus bandwidth of up to 5.33 GB/second. The FSB uses Advanced Gunning Transceiver 

Logic (AGTL+) signaling technology, a variant of GTL+ signaling technology with low 

power enhancements. 

The processor features Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology, which enables real-time 

dynamic switching between multiple voltage and frequency points. The processor 

features the Auto Halt, Stop Grant, Deep Sleep, and Deeper Sleep low power C-states.

The processor utilizes socketable Micro Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (Micro-FCPGA) and 

surface mount Micro Flip-Chip Ball Grid Array (Micro-FCBGA) package technology. The 

Micro-FCPGA package plugs into a 479-hole, surface-mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) 

socket, which is referred to as the mPGA479M socket.

The processor supports the Execute Disable Bit capability. This feature, combined with 

a support operating system, allows memory to be marked as executable or non 

executable. If code attempts to run in non-executable memory the processor raises an 

error to the operating system. This feature can prevent some classes of viruses or 

worms that exploit buffer overrun vulnerabilities and can thus help improve the overall 

security of the system. See the Intel® Architecture Software Developer's Manual for 

more detailed information. 

Intel Virtualization Technology is a set of hardware enhancements to Intel server and 

client systems that combined with the appropriate software, will enable enhanced 

virtualization robustness and performance for both enterprise and consumer uses. Intel 

Virtualization Technology forms the foundation of Intel technologies focused on 

improved virtualization, safer computing, and system stability. For client systems, Intel 

Virtualization Technology’s hardware-based isolation helps provide the foundation for 

highly available and more secure client virtualization partitions.
