PentiumŪ Processor Product Overview
The PentiumŪ processor family is a superior solution for high performance embedded applications. The embedded family includes the 100, 133+VRT and 166 MHz Pentium processors. Voltage Reduction Technology (VRT) is included in the 133 MHz version resulting in lower power consumption. In addition, each member of the embedded family includes the performance enhancements of Pentium processor technology, providing superior investment protection to handle tomorrow's demands.

PC Compatibility
While incorporating new features and improvements made possible by advances in semiconductor technology, the Pentium processor is fully software compatible with previous members of the Intel microprocessor family. In particular, its history in desktop computing has resulted in a legacy of development and application software transferable to embedded applications. In conjunction with existing PC hardware and off-the-shelf development packages, Pentium processor technology has become the ultimate embedded PC solution.

A Complete Solution
Intel provides technical and sales support for customers designing with the Pentium processor in high performance embedded applications. This support includes the availability of two Pentium processor compatible PCIsets: Intel 82430MX and the Intel 430HX.

The Intel 82430MX provides a high performance, lower power PCIset solution. Traditionally used in mobile applications, the 82430MX PCIset is ideally suited for applications that require a faster bus (from 25- to 33-MHz) for greater performance.

The Intel 430HX PCIset is the next generation of the Intel 430 PCIset family. Its two-chip solution includes improved performance with better EDO memory timings, better CPU to PCI performance, support USB, additional buffering and arbitration and writeback enhancements and error correcting codes (ECC).

The 430HX PCIset will enable the first USB platformsand Intel expects to support USB top to bottom in PCIsets.
