Architecture Intel Silvermont

Silvermont platform uses 22-nanometer technology. This will be produced by the method of Tri-Gate, which consists in the transition from planar to three-dimensional structures of transistors. It enables to create chips that operate at a lower voltage and lower leakage currents.



Intel claims that, compared with current Atom-processor based products, Silvermont provide three times higher peak performance, or five times less energy consumption at comparable speed. And this will help in advanced power management.


"System on a chip" generation Silvermont will find use in a wide range of devices: smartphones, tablets, networking equipment, laptops and entry-level automotive media centers.


For desktops and laptops Intel will release Silvermont-chip Atom Valley View. They will get one or two or four processing cores and their speed range from 1.2 to 2.4 GHz.

In the network and communications equipment will be used product, code-named Rangeley, with up to eight cores and memory controller, DDR3-1600. Clock speed - up to 2.4 GHz, the maximum heat dissipation (TDP) - from 7 to 20 watts.

For tablets with Intel chips will offer four cores Bay Trail.
