Intel® Processor Technology
Intel® Processor Experience
X-ES prides itself on remaining at the forefront of leading-edge technologies. X-ES has developed numerous designs based on Intel® Pentium®, Core™ Duo, Core™2 Duo, and Atom™ processors. Continuing in this tradition, X-ES has embraced the next generation of embedded Intel® Core™ i7 processors and had design experience with the first generation (formerly codenamed Arrandale) and the 2nd generation Intel Core i7 processor (formerly codenamed Sandy Bridge).
Intel® Core™ Processor Family
X-ES is committed to supporting the Intel® Core™ embedded processor across our entire line of form factors. Because of customers' performance requirements, X-ES primarily supports the Intel Core i7 processors but also support the Intel Core i5 processor andIntel Core i3 processor based on specific application requirements. X-ES designs include the Intel Core i7-610E, i7-620LE, and i7-620UE processors and the 2nd generation Intel Core i7-2610UE, i7-2666LE, i7-2715QE, and the Intel Core i5-2525E processors. All products from X-ES based on the Intel Core i7 embedded processor are available in commercial, air-cooled to rugged, conduction-cooled versions suitable for a wide variety of commercial, industrial, and military applications.
The Intel Core i7 processor represents the next step in faster, multi-core technology that dynamically maximizes performance to meet workload demands. Intel's fundamental architectural change implemented in the Intel Core i7 processor represents a significant leap forward in computational performance. The 2nd generation Intel Core i7 processor incorporates the Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) that can provide profound performance increases for digital signal processing (DSP) applications.
By leveraging a 32-nm manufacturing process, an impressive performance-per-watt ratio is achieved. In addition, integrated DDR3 ECC dual-channel memory, high-performance graphics controllers, and PCI Express controllers allow the processor to break the bandwidth limitations of past system architectures.
X-ES has coupled this revolutionary processor technology with the Intel® QM57 Express and QM67 Express chipsets, low-power interface controllers. These power-efficient devices offer integrated PCI Express, USB, SATA 3.0 Gb/s, and graphics interfaces. The Intel Corei7 processor coupled with the Intel QM57/QM67 Express chipset provides high performance within an embedded power budget.
