Intel® Atom™ C2738
The Intel Atom C2738 is a embedded processor released on July 1, 2013, built on the Rangeley architecture using a 22 nm process. It has 8 cores and 8 threads, a base clock of 2.40 GHz, 4 MB of L3 cache, a 20 W TDP and the FCBGA1283 socket.
Overview
SummaryThe Intel Atom C2738 is a embedded processor with 8 cores and 8 threads, built on the Rangeley architecture. It launched in Jul 2013. A 4-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.0 MB per core). It addresses DDR3 memory up to 64 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1283 socket and exposes PCIe 2.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 20 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).
Core Configuration
4 specsThe Intel Atom C2738 has 8 physical cores and runs 8 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.40 GHz.
