Computex 2011: Intel Ultrabooks show

May 31 message, Computex 2011 Computex Taipei Intel executive vice president and general manager of Intel Architecture Business Group Sean Maloney told the media the latest Intel low power technologies progress.

Sean Maloney did not disclose the specific new products, TDP power, but he said Intel's latest low-power products will be released in 2012. Sean Maloney said, according to a new Intel exec (upgrade) will bring a new computer products Ultrabooks, such products will be the end of 2012 exceeded 40% market share. Ultrabooks will use the new 22nm Ivy Bridge Intel processors, will reduce the average thickness of 0.8 inches, the price will be less than 1000 dollars.

Sean Maloney said the Atom 32nm Cedar Trail will be to bring about a new Moore's Law and 10 hours of ultra-long standby time, and Intel in the 14nm and 22nm technology has also been a breakthrough.

What's on Ivy Bridge 22nm

The source said that Intel's next generation processor chips Ivy Bridge release time will be postponed.

Sandy Bridge Intel processors in 2011 were applied to the MacBook Pro and the iMac and other Apple computers. However, the industry has started to pay some of the next generation of IvyBridge processor situation. Intel originally planned to launch at the end of 2011, the first IvyBridge processors, and plans to be the beginning of the first quarter of 2012 production. However, this plan has been postponed.

According to a leaked Intel roadmap, Ivy Bridge processor will be March 2012 or April release. As Intel will give priority to meet Apple's needs, so with the iMac and the MacBook IvyBridge processors need to offer 10 months, or even a year's time will be available.

IvyBridge processors will use Intel's 22 nanometer manufacturing process, and for the first time using the latest Intel "tri-gate transistor" technology. Intel said earlier that the tri-gate transistors will increase the processor speed of 37%, while lower voltage requirements. For example, compared to 32-nanometer process using 2D planar transistors, tri-gate transistor performance in the same energy consumption is only half of the cases. In everyday use, IvyBridge system performance than the current system to Sandy Bridge is 20% faster.
