The Intel SU3500 SLGFM is an ultra-low voltage (ULV) mobile processor belonging to the Intel Celeron family. The SLGFM sSpec number identifies this particular processor. It's designed for use in thin and light laptops and netbooks, prioritizing energy efficiency and battery life over raw processing power. The single core architecture is suitable for basic computing tasks.

Applications

• Ultraportable Laptops: Designed for use in small and lightweight laptops where long battery life is essential.
• Netbooks: Suitable for netbooks used for web browsing, email, and basic productivity tasks.
• Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs): Used in mobile devices where low power consumption is a key requirement.

Features

• Single-Core Processor: Based on a single processing core.
• Ultra-Low Voltage (ULV): Consumes very little power compared to standard processors.
• Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology: Dynamically adjusts processor frequency to optimize power consumption.
• Execute Disable Bit: Enhances security by preventing certain types of malicious code from running.
• Small Form Factor: Designed for compact devices with limited space.

Benefits

• Extended Battery Life: The primary benefit is significantly longer battery life in portable devices.
• Portability: Enables the creation of thinner and lighter laptops and netbooks.
• Energy Efficiency: Reduces energy consumption and lowers running costs.
• Quiet Operation: Typically requires less cooling, resulting in quieter operation.
• Cost-Effective: Celeron processors offer a good balance of performance and affordability.

Additional Details

The SU3500's clock speed is generally lower than that of standard voltage processors to minimize power consumption. The processor integrates a memory controller, improving memory access speeds and reducing latency. The processor uses a relatively small amount of L2 cache. Its thermal design power (TDP) is very low, and it needs a cooler to maintain optimal working temperatures. It uses either a socketed or BGA packaging type depending on the device manufacturer's design.
