All Intel® Atom™ processors feature:

  • Small Form Factor CPU Package
  • Low TDP
  • Power Optimized Front Side Bus
  • Enhanced Data Prefetcher & Enhanced Register Access Manager
+View netbook specific features & benefits

Intel® Atom™ processor N270 - netbooks

Small form factor CPU package The new lead-free², halogen-free³ Micro-Flip Chip package is 60% smaller in netbooks (22x22 mm) than a notebook CPU (35x35 mm), saving system board real estate in a much thinner and smaller industrial design, enabling small netbook form factors.
Intel® Enhanced Deeper Sleep (C4/C4E) Saves power by flushing cache data to system memory during periods of inactivity to reduce power consumption and enable longer battery life.
Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep Technology Multiple voltage and frequency operating points provide optimal performance at the lowest power. This allows for better matching of performance to application demand.
Low TDP Low Thermal Design Power enables thinner, lighter, portable netbook devices as it reduces the cooling requirements.
Power-optimized front side bus Minimizes power needed to transmit data to the processor, resulting in significant power savings and enabling longer battery life - all without impacting performance.
Enhanced data prefetcher and enhanced register access manager Anticipates data the processor is likely to need and stores the information within the processor's L2 cache, resulting in improved performance since the processor doesn't have to wait as long for data.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache Cache and bus design for efficient data sharing, providing enhanced performance, responsiveness and power savings.

Intel® Atom™ processor 230 - nettop single-core processor

Intel® Atom™ processor 330 - nettop dual-core processor

Intel® Atom™ processors for nettops (both single and dual-core) share the same features and benefits:

Small form factor CPU package The new lead free², halogen free³ Micro-Flip Chip package is 70% smaller (22x22mm) than a desktop CPU (37.5x37.5mm), saving system board real estate in a much thinner and smaller industrial design, enabling small nettop form factors.
Low TDP Low Thermal Design Power enables smaller internet-centric desktop computing devices due to the lower cooling requirements.
Power optimized front side bus Minimizes power needed to transmit data to the processor, resulting in significant power savings and enabling longer battery life - all without impacting performance.
Enhanced data prefetcher & Enhanced Register Access Manager Anticipates data the processor is likely to need and stores the information within the processor's L2 cache, resulting in improved performance since the processor doesn't have to wait as long for data.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache Cache & bus design for efficient data sharing, providing enhanced performance, responsiveness and power savings.
Integrated DX9* graphics core The Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 provides 3D graphics performance for a good visual computing experience.
Intel® High Definition Audio 5.1 Integrated audio support enables quality home theater sound and delivers advanced features such as multiple audio streams and jack re-tasking.
PCI Express* x1 Interface Offers up to 3.5 times the bandwidth over traditional PCI architecture. Supports LPC serial interface, ExpressCard and mini-card, and delivers fast access to peripheral devices and networking.

Powering the newest and most exciting Mobile Internet Devices, Intel® Atom™ processor technology unleashes the best Internet experiences on the go.¹ enabling you to enjoy fast performance, smooth video streaming and playback, and brilliant graphics—all in a powerful and pocketable device.

With devices getting smaller, sleeker, and lighter than ever, you'll be able to choose from a variety of exciting new devices to keep you connected, entertained, informed and productive- and meet the demanding needs of your highly mobile lifestyle.¹

Consumer lifestyles have become more mobile and dependent on needing access to the internet in more places than ever before. Devices are getting smaller and require high performance processors that consume low power. Mobile Internet Devices based on Intel® Atom™ processor technology enable more of everything you love on-the-go:

  • Put great performance in the palm of your hand. Based on the latest 45nm process technology, the Intel® Atom™ processor, the fastest processor among sub-3W processors, uses groundbreaking silicon design that packs big performance in a remarkably small space. With features like Hyper-Threading Technology* and Power Optimized Front Side Bus, end users can get the same internet experience they are used to on their PC with faster responsiveness and web page loads, plus the ability to multitask - all in a smaller, more portable form factor.
  • Video in More Places. Sharing videos on the web has become increasingly mainstream among end users. With support for more video players and codecs, you are able to view the latest videos with ease. You can also view HD content on your Mobile Internet Device, with support for up to 720p and 1080i HD video formats. This is enabled by the single-chip Intel® System Controller Hub, which features Intel® Clear Video Technology for MIDs, allowing for low power, full-frame, and hardware accelerated video playback.
  • Enjoy 3D Graphics Enjoy enhanced user interfaces and visual effects with the high performance, low power graphics engine of the Intel® System Controller Hub featuring support for DX9L and OpenGL which enable a new class of applications for mobile devices, including select PC Games.
  • Long battery life keeps you going. The Intel® Atom™ processor is an ultra low-power processor. Along with power saving features in the Intel® System Controller Hub, like Deep Power Down Technology and Intel® Display Power Saving Technology, you can stay connected longer without having to plug in as often.
  • Find connections when you need them Connect wirelessly where and when you want-at home, in the office, or on the go, hitting up hotspots around town or around the world. Wireless Connectivity on Mobile Internet Devices is supported in a variety of ways: Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G or WiMAX.²
