Intel® 3100 ChipsetFor the Intel® Pentium® M processor and the Intel® Celeron® M processor on 90nm process
The Intel® 3100 Chipset combines server-class memory and I/O controller functions into a single component, creating the first integrated Intel® chipset specifically optimized for embedded, communications, and storage applications. When combined with Intel® Pentium® M or Intel® Celeron® M processors on 90nm process technology, the Intel 3100 Chipset addresses developers’ needs for high-performance, high-reliability, low-power platforms within small form-factors such as PrAMC, CompactPCI* and COM Express*.

Features and benefits
| Supports Intel® Xeon® LV and ULV | Two high-performance cores per platform meet the needs of high-performance, low-power applications with small processors form-factor constraints |
|---|---|
| Supports Intel Celeron processor (1.66 GHz) | Single-core solution offers scalable performance and value |
| 40 mm x 40 mm FC-BGA package | Requires 50% less board space than prior-generation two-chip chipsetsΔ |
| PCI Express* | Direct connection between the Intel® 3100 Chipset and PCI Express component/adapters; bandwidth up to 4 GB/s on the x8 PCI Express interface; higher bandwidth and less I/O bottlenecks than PCI-X* |
| DDR2-400 memory interface |
Maximum memory bandwidth of 3.2 GB/s Decreased power consumption—especially important on dense rack, hot-plug controller and blade configurations |
| Advanced platform RAS |
Memory ECC, SEC/DED, and DIMM scrubbing can improve system reliability 32-bit ECRC on PCI Express Hot swap PCI Express enhances serviceability SMBus port hooks for remote management operation and support for a variety of third-party base management controller and BIOS solutions |
| GPIO | 38 pins (25 dedicated, 13 mux’ed) |
| USB 2.0 |
One USB 2.0 host controller with a total of four ports Supports wakeup from sleeping in S3 and S5 states |
| Two integrated UARTs (serial ports) | Supports full function of a standard 16550 UART including hardware flow control interface |
| 32/33-bit PCI bus interface |
Supports PCI Rev 2.3 specification at 33 MHz Supports two request/grant pairs |
| SMBus x2 | First SMBus dedicated as slave; second configurable as master or slave |
| Integrated serial ATA host controllers |
Six ports provide independent DMA operation in AHCI mode Four ports support in SATA 1.0a mode |
| Watchdog timer | Multiple modes (WDT and free-running) |
| Power management | ACPI 2.0 support |
