Intel’s Low-Power Pentium M Processors

Intel today expanded the Intel Pentium M processor and Intel Celeron M processor families with products aimed at the notebook, subnotebook and tablet PC segments that represent small mobile PCs typically weighing around three pounds.

Intel’s new offerings include the Intel Pentium M processor Low Voltage 738, the Intel Pentium M processor Ultra Low Voltage 733 and 723, and the Intel Celeron M processor Ultra Low Voltage 353. All four processors are based on Intel’s mobile micro-architecture and built using Intel’s high-volume 90-nanometer process technology.

The Low Voltage and Ultra Low Voltage Intel Pentium M processors, in conjunction with the Intel 855 chipset family and the Intel PRO/Wireless network connection family, are components of Intel Centrino mobile technology for subnotebooks and tablet PCs.
