Sunday, 24 December 2006 12:12

Intel just announced its plan on its Core 2 Solo single-core processors in Q3 2007. Instead of normal edition, the upcoming Core 2 Solo has ULV (Ultra Low-Voltage) edition only, targeting for the Sub-Note market. Regarding with the rumor concerning Merom based Celeron M is a dual core, Intel has also announced it should be a single core. The rumor is busted.

In the previous plan, since dual core has been put into a common place, there never exists single core Core 2 Solo but Celeron M 500 for entry-level market. However, since single core has a better power consumption than dual core, Intel decided to make Core 2 Solo ULV for the need Sub-Note market.

The new Core 2 Solo ULV includes two models: U2200 (1.2 GHz/1MB L2/533MHz) and U2100 (1.06 GHz/1MB L2/533MHz). They are set to replace U1500 and U1400. These two models have very good power consumption at 5W only, and are support for Intel VT, EIST, XD Bit and 64.

It should be noted that Core 2 Solo ULV would be released in Socket M interface instead of Socket P for Santa Rosa. The reason is as simple as that 945GM chipset has half power consumption (7W TDP) than 965GM (14W TDP); limited battery capacity is a limitation to Sub-Note so that devices have to use as less power as possible. Therefore, Core 2 Solo ULV is released for Napa Refresh platform only.

Regarding with the rumor concerning Merom based Celeron M is a dual core, Intel has also announced the specification of Celeron M 500 family; it is a single core. Besides Celeron M 520 and 530, Intel has a Celeron M 523 ULV (933MHz/1MB L2/533MHz) edition planned to release in Q3 2007. This model also has very good power consumption at 5W only, but Intel VT, EIST, XD Bit and 64 are all disabled.
