Intel® 3100 Chipset
for Intel® Pentium® M and Intel® Celeron® M Processors on 90 nm process
 
Intel® 3100 Chipset 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 chipsets¹
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
