It is frequently referred to as i686. [2] It was planned to be succeeded by the NetBurst microarchitecture used by the Pentium 4 in 2000, but was revived for the Pentium M line of microprocessors. The successor to the Pentium M variant of the P6 microarchitecture is the Core microarchitecture which in turn is also derived from P6.
The Linux kernel includes full PAE-mode support starting with version 2.3.23, [24] in 1999 enabling access of up to 64 GB of memory on 32-bit machines. A PAE-enabled Linux kernel requires that the CPU also support PAE. The Linux kernel supports PAE as a build option and major distributions provide a PAE kernel either as the default or as an option.
Goldmont Plus: successor to Goldmont microarchitecture, still based on the 14 nm process, released on December 11, 2017. Tremont 10 nm Atom microarchitecture iteration after Goldmont Plus. [25] Lakefield: mobile-only, Intel's first hybrid processor, released in June 2020. Tremont is used in efficiency cores (E-cores) of Lakefield processors. [12]
The Pentium Pro is a sixth-generation x86 microprocessor developed and manufactured by Intel and introduced on November 1, 1995. [1]: D-2 It introduced the P6 microarchitecture (sometimes termed i686) and was originally intended to replace the original Pentium in a full range of applications.
Excavator added hardware support for new instructions such as AVX2, BMI2 and RDRAND. [11] Excavator is designed using High Density (aka "Thin") Libraries normally used for GPUs to reduce electric energy consumption and die size, delivering a 30 percent increase in efficient energy use. [12]
Physical Address Extension or PAE was first added in the Intel Pentium Pro, and later by AMD in the Athlon processors, [47] to allow up to 64 GB of RAM to be addressed. Without PAE, physical RAM in 32-bit protected mode is usually limited to 4 GB. PAE defines a different page table structure with wider page table entries and a third level of ...
The 64-bit addressing mode ("long mode") is a superset of Physical Address Extensions (PAE); because of this, page sizes may be 4 KiB (2 12 bytes) or 2 MiB (2 21 bytes). [11]: 120 Long mode also supports page sizes of 1 GiB (2 30 bytes).
The latest standard badge design used by Intel to promote the Celeron brand. The Celeron was a family of microprocessors from Intel targeted at the low-end consumer market. . CPUs in the Celeron brand have used designs from sixth- to eighth-generation CPU microarchitectur
