Overview
SummaryThe Intel Xeon E3-1501M v6 is a embedded processor with 4 cores and 4 threads, built on the Kaby Lake architecture. It launched in Jul 2016. Clocks run from 2.9 GHz base to 3.6 GHz boost. A 6-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 64 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1440 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 45 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).
Core Configuration
5 specsThe Intel Xeon E3-1501M v6 has 4 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.90 GHz and boosts up to 3.60 GHz.
