Intel pentium n4200, the first apollo lake processor

High-end super-powerful processors are not always necessary or convenient, in many scenarios great energy efficiency is essential to design chips with modest but sufficient performance and most important of all, with very low power consumption. With these premises the new Intel Apollo Lake processors are born and with them its first exponent, the Pentium N4200.

Pentium N4200: features of the first Apollo Lake processor

The Pentium N4200 is the first chip in the new family of Intel Apollo Lake processors that are intended to govern equipment where energy efficiency prevails, such as low-cost and very light laptops, AIO equipment and, above all, convertible 2-in-1 equipment in the that there is no possibility of installing an active cooling system. These new processors arrive manufactured in Intel's advanced 14nm Tri-Gate process that makes them unbeatable in energy efficiency with the permission of the ARM architecture.

The Pentium N4200 is a quad- core processor capable of handling up to four threads of data as it lacks HT. Their cores operate at base and turbo frequencies of 1.10 and 2.50 GHz with a full-performance TDP of just 6W and an average consumption of 4W. Its specifications are completed with 128 Kb of L2 cache and 2 MB of L3 cache. With these characteristics it is capable of improving the performance of the Pentium N3700 (Braswell) by 30% while maintaining the same power consumption.
