New Intel Centrino Atom Processor Technology

Intel Corporation has introduced five new Intel Atom processors and Intel Centrino Atom processor technology for Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs) and embedded computing solutions.

The technology package includes the Intel Atom processor (formerly codenamed ‘Silverthorne’) plus a single-chip with integrated graphics called the Intel System Controller Hub that enables PC-like capabilities.

“Today is a historic day for Intel and the high-tech industry as we deliver our first-ever Intel Atom processor and surround it with a great package of technology,” said Anand Chandrasekher, Intel senior vice president and general manager of the Ultra Mobility Group. “Mix in the incredible innovation coming from our fellow device makers and software vendors, and we will change the way consumers will come to know and access the World Wide Web. These forthcoming MIDs, and some incredible longer-term plans our customers are sharing with us, will show how small devices can deliver a big Internet experience.”
