Microprocessors
As the foundation for Intel's processor-technology, Intel® microarchitecture employs next-generation, 45nm multi-core technology. Optimized to deliver state-of-the-art features that raise the bar on energy-efficient performance, Intel microarchitecture continues to be the catalyst for innovative new designs.


Multi-Core Technology
Permanently altering the course of computing as we know it, Intel® multi-core technology provides new levels of energy efficient performance, enabled by advanced parallel processing and hafnium-based 45nm technology. Incorporating multiple processor execution cores in a single package delivering full parallel execution of multiple software threads, Intel multi-core technology enables higher levels of performance while each core runs at a lower frequency, dividing the power typically required by a higher frequency single core processor with equivalent performance. This provides a breakthrough experience in notebook and desktop PCs, workstations, and servers.

Central to our technology roadmap, Intel® multi-core processors based on 45nm are paving the way to the next revolution in processor technology—32nm multi-core processors. By innovating future architectures that can hold dozens or even hundreds of processors on a single die, we're ensuring that Intel® technologies will continue to keep pace with demands well into the future.

Energy Efficiency
This research is concentrated on improving the power profile of Intel components, taking a systems approach to designing power efficient platforms, and collaborating with industry partners and customers to develop broader energy–efficient system solutions.
