3 Functional Description
The following sections describe the cPCI-3615 Series features
and functions.
3.1 Processor
The cPCI-3615 Series supports the
Intel® Atom™
Processor N400,
D400 and D500 Series processors built on 45-nm Hi-K process
technology. The processor is designed for a two-chip platform as
opposed to the traditional three-chip platforms (processor, GMCH,
and ICH). The two-chip platform consists of a processor and the
chipset and enables higher performance, lower cost, easier valida-
tion, and improved x-y footprint.
1. The highest expected sustainable power while running known
power intensive applications. TDP is not the maximum power
that the processor can dissipate.
2. The maximum supported operating temperature.
Intel® Atom™ Processor N455
Included in this family of processors is an integrated memory con-
troller, integrated graphics processing unit and integrated I/O
(such as DMI) on a single silicon die.
The following list outlines the key features of this processor:
X One die, primary 32-kB instructions cache and 24-kB
write-back data cache
