Intel Atom


You can certainly tick off its tech specs (47 million transistors, front side bus of up to 533MHz), you can count its superlatives (our smallest, lowest-power chip ever)—or you can gaze at the Intel Atom processor beside a single grain of uncooked white rice.

As the Intel Atom processor makes its way into low-power devices worldwide—netbooks, nettops, mobile Internet devices—Intel this week began shipping a dual-core version of the Atom.

We've designed this product for nettops—affordable desktop machines.
The dual-core Intel® Atom™ Processor 330 features a 1.6GHz processing core, 1MB of level 2 cache, an 8W TDP and support for DDR2 667.

Paul Otellini has said that the Atom may be Intel's most important new product in a decade. What other company can you think of that creates something so complex, so powerful, in such staggering quantities, able to touch so many humans around the planet—all on the tiniest sliver of silicon no bigger than…well, now you know.
