Intel 'Moorestown' UMPCs to feature single-chip CPU/GPU

| Monday, April 13, 2009

Intel announced that its �Moorestown � platform of system-on-a-piece for UMPCs and Internet marks on shelf behind in April this year, but it kept the details close to its trunk. They the 'VE now ran outside.

Moorestown will comprise two pieces: the Ploughshare, called the �Lincroft �, and a part of input-output called �Langwell �. According to a report/ratio on the PCWatch site of Japanese-language, Lincroft has an integrated controller of memory which is connected to a bank of memory of GDR 3.

When it mentioned the first Moorestown time, Intel indicated that the platform the 'processor of S would contain other components, and in addition to the controller of memory, Lincroft will also fol�trera its own GPU.

How Lincroft is connected to Langwell remains not very clear, but we can say that they gained the 'bond of T to the top above a bus of frontside like A100/A110 running and the next-GEN next one, of central processing unit of treatment of 45nm UMPC �Sliverthorne �, make. Now that we know Intel it looking at a bus of DMI to connect its 45nm �Nahelem � - the mobile processors of architecture to their pieces of input-output, him 's strongly probably that the giant of piece envisages to employ same technology in Moorestown.

Langwell will incorporate controllers for the USB, PCI Express, the peripherals of ATA and other foundations of system.

Intel pawned that Moorestown as a whole will provide enough the execution to run Windows Vista to however consume one twentieth power a central processing unit of treatment of Celeron M makes today, or a fifth it which next year 's Silverthorne-a based �Menlow � platform will require.

At most the recent forum of realizer of Intel, considered September spent, the company reiterated its plan to release Moorestown in the calendar of 2009/2010. The last data of roadmaps suggest that they could have advanced the part 'release of S with mid-2009, in front of the introduction of the processors based on �Westmere � architecture, the 32nm die-narrow of Nahelem.
