Intel® Core™ Processors for Edge and Embedded
Intel® Core™ processors deliver powerful, flexible edge innovations for real-world performance.
Intel® Core™ Processors for Edge and Embedded
Intel® Core™ Series 3 processors
Expand edge AI to mainstream designs with built-in NPU, GPU with Intel® Xe Matrix Extensions (Intel® XMX), and up to 6 CPU cores to deliver enterprise-ready edge compute with strong TCO. Built to meet cost and power constraints, they support lightweight AI, responsive graphics, and real-time control, with up to 40 platform TOPS in a 10–28W envelope.
Mainstream edge AI
With three integrated compute engines: a hybrid CPU, NPU, and GPU with Intel® XMX, Intel Core Series 3 processors can run lightweight AI, responsive graphics, and mainstream compute on a single SoC—without a discrete accelerator.
Compact designs, smooth graphics
With a small power envelope and integrated accelerators, Intel Core Series 3 processors enable compact, fanless systems that simplify cooling and reduce design complexity for space- and power-constrained edge deployments.
Reliable, long-life devices
Intel Core Series 3 processors bring consistent performance and long-term reliability for demanding edge deployments. With up to 10-year availability, long-term OS support, and support for embedded and industrial conditions, they extend system lifecycles and reduce recertification costs.

Customer Testimonials7
“…delivered an average of 1.4x reduction in inference latency across vision inspection models generated by Neurocle’s Auto Deep Learning technology… noticeably more responsive defect detection on manufacturing lines and faster image analysis in clinical workflows…”
Hongsuk Lee
CEO, Neurocle
“…delivers a major step forward in industrial control performance, achieving roughly a 1.67x increase in virtual PLC density over the previous generation. Executing CODESYS Control systems, where each application can drive a full multi axis robotic system, a single processor can now replace up to ten motion controllers—compared to about six on the prior platform. It’s a level of consolidation that fundamentally elevates what’s possible in a modern control architecture.”
Hilmar Panzer
CTO, Codesys
“…shows a clear lift on mixed SKU palletizing. Compute times improved by roughly 1.5x per task…estimate a 5–10% improvement in overall productivity… means more output from the same robots, fewer late waves and faster payback on existing automation...”
Peter Yu
CTO, XYZ Robotics
“…delivers up to 2.3x gain in thread-per-channel efficiency, allowing us to run richer analytics on the same hardware budget… more cameras per server, lowering energy use, and enabling real time intelligence across busy intersections, transit hubs, and public spaces.”
