Tualatin
This is the well-known "figure Latin" the core, is Intel Socket 370 architecture in the last kind of CPU core, use 0.13 um manufacturing process, packaging mode using FC - PGA2 and PPGA, core voltage also reduce to 1.5 V or so, basic frequency range from 1 to 1.4 GHz GHz, external clock respectively for 100 MHZ (cy young) and 133 MHZ (Pentium III), level 2 cache respectively for 512 KB (Pentium III - S) and 256 KB (Pentium III and cy young), this is the strongest Socket 370 core, its performance and even more than the early low-frequency Pentium 4 series of CPU toshiba satellite a85 series laptop cpu cooling fan.
 
Willamette
This is the early Pentium 4 and P4 cy young using core, the original Socket 423 interface, and then convert Socket 478 interface (cy young only 1.7 GHz and 1.8 GHz two kinds, are Socket 478 interface), use 0.18 um manufacturing process, front-end bus frequency for 400 MHZ, basic frequency range from 1.3 GHz to 2.0 GHz (Socket 423) and 1.6 GHz to 2.0 GHz (Socket 478), level 2 cache respectively for 256 KB toshiba satellite a85 s107 laptop cpu cooling fan(Pentium 4) and 128 KB (cy young), note, and some types of Socket 423 interface Pentium 4 didn't level 2 cache! Core voltage of 1.75 V or so, encapsulation using Socket 423 PPGA INT2, PPGA INT3, OOI 423 - pin, PPGA FC - PGA2 and Socket 478 PPGA FC - PGA2 cy young and the PPGA, etc. Willamette core manufacturing technology is backward, calorific value, the lower performance and has been eliminated, and replaced by Northwood core.
 
Northwood
This is the mainstream of the Pentium 4 and cy young the core, its and Willamette core biggest improvement is made by 0.13 um manufacturing process, and use Socket 478 interface, core voltage of 1.5 V or so, level 2 cache respectively for 128 KB (cy young) and 512 KB (Pentium 4), front end bus frequency were 400/533/800 MHZ (cy young are only 400 MHZ), basic frequency range were 2.0 GHz toshiba satellite a85 s1072 laptop cpu cooling fan to 2.8 GHz (cy young), 1.6 GHz to 2.6 GHz (400 MHZ FSB Pentium 4), 2.26 GHz to 3.06 GHz (533 MHZ FSB Pentium 4) and 2.4 GHz to 3.4 GHz (800 MHZ FSB Pentium 4), and 3.06 GHz Pentium 4 and all 800 MHZ Pentium 4 support hyper-threading Technology (Hyper - Threading Technology), encapsulation using PPGA FC - PGA2 and PPGA. Intel in accordance with the planning, Northwood core will soon be replaced Prescott core.
 
Prescott
This is the high-end Pentium 4 EE, mainstream Pentium 4 and low amdk6 series D the core. Prescott core and Northwood core the biggest difference is that USES 90 nm manufacturing process, L1 data cache from 8 KB increase to 16 KB, pipeline structure also from 20 level increased to 31st level, and began to support SSE3. Prescott core CPU initial use Socket 478 interface, now basically has all turned to Socket 775 interface, core voltage of 1.25-1.525 V. Front end bus frequency, Celeron D all 533 MHZ FSB, and besides Celeron D other than the CPU for 533 MHZ (does not support hyper-threading technology) and 800 MHZ (support hyper-threading technology) and the highest 1066 MHZ toshiba satellite c630 series laptop cpu cooling fan(support hyper-threading technology). Level 2 cache respectively for 256 KB (Celeron D), 1 MB (Socket 478 interface pentium 4 and Socket 775 interface pentium 4 5 xx series) and 2 MB (pentium 4 6 xx series and pentium 4 EE). The encapsulation PPGA (Socket 478) and PLGA (Socket 775). Prescott core since since the launch is also in constant improvement and development, has joined the hardware anti-virus Technology Execute Disable Bit (EDB), energy saving save electricity Technology Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST), Virtualization Technology Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) and 64 Technology EM64T, etc., level 2 cache also from the initial 1 MB increased to 2 MB. Intel in accordance with the planning, Prescott core will be Cedar Mill core replaced.
 
Smithfield
This is the first paragraph Intel company dual core processor core type, basically can think Smithfield core is a simple two Prescott core loose coupling together of the product, which is based on the independence of the cache loose coupling scheme, its advantage is technology is simple, defect is performance is not ideal, at present the Pentium D 8 xx series and Pentium EE 8 xx series adopt the core. About Smithfield detailed information can view Intel dual core type
 
Cedar Mill
This is the Pentium 4 6 x1 series and Celeron D 3 x2/3 x6 series using core, from 2005 began to appear at the end. Its and Prescott core the biggest difference is that USES 65 nm manufacturing technology, and other aspects of the change is not big, basically can be considered a Prescott core 65 nm process version. Cedar Mill core all adopt Socket 775 interface, core voltage of 1.3 V or so toshiba satellite c640 series laptop cpu cooling fan, encapsulation using PLGA. Among them, the Pentium 4 all for 800 MHZ FSB, 2 MB level 2 cache, support hyper-threading technology, hardware anti-virus technology EDB, energy-saving province electric technology EIST and 64 technology EM64T; And Celeron D is 533 MHZ FSB, 512 KB level 2 cache, support hardware anti-virus technology EDB and 64 technology EM64T, does not support hyper-threading technology and energy-saving province electric technology EIST. Cedar Mill Core is Intel processor NetBurst architecture in the last paragraph single Core processor Core type, according to the Intel planning, Cedar Mill Core will gradually be Core framework Conroe replaced the Core.
 
Presler
This is the Pentium D 9 xx and Pentium EE 9 xx using core, also is introduced by the end of 2005. Basically can think Presler core is a simple two Cedar Mill core loose coupling together product, is based on the independence of the cache loose coupling scheme, its advantage is technology is simple, defect is performance is not ideal.
 
Yonah
At present the Yonah Core CPU has double Core Core Duo and single Core Core Solo toshiba satellite m100 laptop cpu cooling fan , another Celeron M also USES this Core, Yonah Intel is launched in early 2006. This is a kind of single/double core processor core type, its application features a very big flexibility, can be used in desktop platform, can also be used to mobile platform; Can be used in dual core, also can be used for single core. Yonah core from the mobile platform big-name processor Pentium M outstanding architecture, with line series less, implement high efficiency, strong function and low power consumption etc advantages. Yonah core adopts 65 nm manufacturing technology, interface type is improved new Socket 478 interface (and desktop before the Socket 478 is not compatible). Yonah core support hardware anti-virus technology EDB and save energy EIST electrical technology, but its biggest regret is not support 64 technology, just 32-bit processor. It is worth noting that the Core Duo Yonah Core is adopted two Core sharing 2 MB level 2 cache. Shared secondary cache with Intel's "Smart cache" Shared buffer technology to realize the true sense of the cache data synchronization, reduced the data delay, and reduced the rate of front end bus take up. Yonah core is Shared buffer close coupling scheme, its advantage is performance ideal, defect is technology is more complex.
