Hardware vendors expected to use Intel's new products include Nortel, Alcatel-Lucent, Advantech, Lanner, iBase, NexCom, Emerson, and others. The SoCs also support multiple operating systems, such as Wind River's real-time operating system and Red Hat Linux.
While the new products use an older Pentium M CPU, future SoCs will be built around Intel's Atom core. Atom is one of Intel's latest 45-nanometer-scale manufactured processors. The low-power chip available with one or two cores is expected to have a clock speed ranging from 800 MHz to 1.87 GHz and is aimed at ultramobile PCs, smartphones, mobile Internet devices, and other portable and low-power applications.
Intel said it has more than 15 SoC projects planned, including the company's first consumer electronics chip, code-named Canmore, which is scheduled for introduction later this year, and the second-generation Sodaville, set to be introduced next year.
Scheduled to hit the market in 2009 or 2010 is the next-generation semiconductors and accompanying chipsets for mobile Internet devices. Code-named Moorestown, the platform will include a 45-nm CPU code-named Lincroft, which will have the core, graphics, and memory controller on a single die.
The new products and road map are not the first time Intel has built SoC technology. In 2006, Intel sold its XScale technology to Marvell Technology
