Intel to launch new CPUs for ultra-thin notebooks
Intel plans to launch two new ultra low voltage (ULV) CPUs by the end of March this year mainly targeting the company’s consumer ultra low voltage (CULV) platform for ultra-thin notebook products, according to sources at notebook makers. The two CPUs are the Core 2 Duo SU9600 with a core frequency of 1.6GHz and priced at US$289 in thousand-unit tray quantities, and Core 2 Solo SU3500 at 1.4GHz and US$262.
The two CPUs join the previously launched SU9400, SU9300, SU3300 and Celeron 723 under the CULV product line. All can be pared with the GS45 IGP chipset. In addition the sources detailed that Intel plans to separate the CULV platform into three levels single-core entry-level which consists of Intel’s ULV Celeron processor; single-core performance consisting of ULV Core 2 Solo processors; and dual-core performance with ULV Core 2 Duo processors.
