Abstract

In this paper, we provide an overview of the second-generation Intel® Centrino® mobile technology platform. This represents a major revision of several new I/O and memory interfaces: Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Express* (PCIe), Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA), Intel® High Definition Audio (Intel® HD Audio), and Double Data Rate (DDR2), which all enable a range of computing and media capabilities. The second-generation Pentium® M processor, the i915 Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH), the 82801FM I/O Controller Hub (ICH) and the Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915 Network Interface Controller (NIC) with higher performance, new capabilities and interfaces enable exciting new usages: Mobile Digital Office, Mobile On-the-Go, and Mobile Entertainment. Intel has demonstrated these usages through innovative concepts based on the Intel® Centrino® mobile technology platform and is actively enabling our Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) to bring these to market. Intel has driven power reductions on both the platform and its silicon while still delivering new features and capabilities.
