Intel® Pentium® M Processor (90nm) with
Intel® 3100 Chipset Development Kit
Product Overview
The Intel® Pentium® M Processor (90nm) with Intel® 3100 Chipset
Development Kit is an excellent platform for a variety of embedded
and communications infrastructure applications. The platform
enables outstanding instruction execution/watt while providing
scalability with Intel® Celeron® M and Intel® Pentium® M processors
on 90-nanometer (nm) process. The Intel® 3100 chipset combines
server-class memory and I/O controller functions into a single
component, creating the first integrated Intel® chipset specifically
optimized for embedded, communications and storage applications.
When combined with Intel® processors, the chipset addresses
developers’ needs for high-performance, high-reliability, low-power
designs within small form factors such as PrAMC, CompactPCI*,
and COMExpress* .
The Intel 3100 chipset integrates PCI Express* serial I/O technol-
ogy and DDR2 memory technology to increase I/O bandwidth
and reduce system latency for data-intensive applications. The
400 MHz front-side bus provides support for Intel Pentium M and
Celeron M processors, as well as an upgrade path
with next-generation Intel® dual-core processors. The chipset
includes a four-channel Enhanced Direct Memory Access (EDMA)
controller, providing low-latency, high-throughput data transfer
capability with no CPU intervention for higher overall system
performance. It also integrates I/O controller features such as
Serial ATA, PCI and USB, saving board real estate and power by
removing the need for a separate, legacy I/O bridge chip.
This and other development kits from Intel provide a fully working
system with a range of performance options that can be modified
or used immediately for product development. They also provide a
validated board platform for software vendors to test BIOS and
operating system software.
