Acceleron
Acceleron is a type of microprocessor developed by Intel, a multinational corporation and technology company. It is a low-end product line that was first released in 1998. The Acceleron processors are known for their low cost and low power consumption, making them ideal for use in budget-oriented computing devices.
History[edit | edit source]
The first Acceleron processors were based on the P6 microarchitecture. They were introduced in 1998 as a budget line of processors, positioned below the higher-performance processors in Intel's product range. The first Acceleron processors were based on a 250 nanometer process and had a clock speed of 533 MHz.
Over the years, Intel has released several generations of Acceleron processors, each with improvements in performance and power efficiency. The latest generation of Acceleron processors are based on the Atom system on chip architecture and are designed for use in low-power devices such as netbooks and tablets.
Architecture[edit | edit source]
Acceleron processors are based on a variety of microarchitectures, including P6, NetBurst, and Atom. They typically have fewer cores and lower clock speeds than higher-end Intel processors, but they also consume less power and generate less heat.
Acceleron processors support a variety of technologies, including Hyper-Threading, Virtualization Technology, and Execute Disable Bit. However, they do not support some of the advanced features found in higher-end Intel processors, such as Turbo Boost and vPro Technology.
Applications[edit | edit source]
Acceleron processors are used in a wide range of devices, from desktop and laptop computers to tablets and netbooks. They are also used in embedded systems and low-power servers. Despite their low cost and low power consumption, Acceleron processors are capable of running a wide range of software, including operating systems, productivity applications, and multimedia software.
