Intel Atom™ Processor N2000 and D2000 Series-Based Platforms
The Intel® Atom™ processor N2000 and D2000 series feature new levels of performance-per-watt, opening the door to always-on, always-connected embedded devices.
Based on 32 nm process technology, they offer significant power-reduction and performance improvements to deliver the best-in-class response time of any embedded Intel® Atom™ processor. The series offer a range of thermal design power1 (TDP) from 3.5 W to 10 W for power-efficient, fanless embedded designs, with stunning video graphics performance and support for up to 4 GB of DDR3 system memory.
Processors include:
- Intel® Atom™ processor N2600
- Intel® Atom™ processor N2800
- Intel® Atom™ processor D2700
These processors are paired with the Intel® NM10 Express chipset, providing rich I/O capabilities and flexibility via highbandwidth interfaces such as PCI Express, Serial ATA, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity and Intel® High Definition Audio.
These platforms offer excellent solutions for embedded market segments such as digital signage, interactive clients (kiosks, point-of-sale terminals), thin clients, medical devices and industrial control. Processors are drop-in compatible, enabling platforms to scale seamlessly with minimal design effort. Additionally, they remain software compatible with previous 32-bit Intel® architecture and complementary silicon.
Atom™ Processor N2000 and D2000 Series-Based Platforms Features
- Intel Atom processor D2700 at 2.13 GHz breaks, for the first time, the 2.0 GHz core speed barrier for embedded Intel Atom processors.
- This series introduces the first embedded Intel Atom processor core based on Intel® 32nm logic technology, incorporating 2nd generation Hi-k metal gate transistors. The ultra-low power core includes lowstandby/always-on circuit applications and high-voltage I/O transistors, enabling embedded computing devices to be more energy efficient, smaller in size, and offer more robust capabilities.
- Intel® Rapid Start Technology provides fast resume; Intel® Smart Connect Technology enables an always-updated experience even during standby.
- Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3600/3650 combined with the integrated memory controller provides enhanced performance and system responsiveness.
- Integrated hardware-accelerated decoder enables smooth full HD (up to 1080p) video playback and streaming at a fraction of the power consumption of previous generations.
- eDP/DP, LVDS, VGA and HDMI provide a wide range of display outputs for design flexibility and display scalability.
- Intel® Deep Power Down Technology significantly reduces power usage during idle periods so that internal transistor power leakage is minimal
- Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (two threads) provides high-performance-perwatt efficiency in an in-order pipeline for increased system esponsiveness in multi-tasking environments. One execution core is seen as two logical processors, and parallel threads are executed on a single core with shared resources.
- Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) 2 and Intel® SSE3 enable software to accelerate data processing in specific areas, such as complex arithmetic and video decoding.
- Execute Disable Bit4 prevents certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks. Along with a strong ecosystem of hardware and software vendors, including members of the Intel® Embedded Alliance (intel.com/go/eca), Intel helps to cost-effectively meet development challenges and speed time-to-market.
- Intel® Boot Loader Development Kit (Intel® BLDK) support helps optimize firmware to reduce boot time, firmware size and cost.
