Processor Overview

The A1SAM/A1SRM Series motherboard supports a 2nd-generation 64-bit, Intel®
Atom™ C2000 Tri-Gate SoC (System-on-a- Chip) Series processor based on low-
power 22nm Silvermont microarchitecture in an FCBGA 1283 package. Built upon
the functionality and capability of the C2000 SoC Series processor, the A1SAM/
A1SRM Series motherboard provides unprecedented enhancements to network
routing, internet security, system performance, and power efficiency.
The C2000 SoC Series processor features an Out-of-Order Execution Engine, of-
fering new multi-core and system-fabric-architecture capable of utilizing eight CPU
cores to achieve improved single-thread performance. This new SoC processor
also provides an operating range with wider dynamic power and enhanced power
man agement. In addition, the A1SRM Series motherboard supports the Intel®
QuickAssist Technology, which provides hardware acceleration to help enhance
cryptographic performance, secure internet traffic, and boost network routing,
freeing up processor resources for application processing, while the A1SAM
Series motherboard supports the Intel® Turbo Boost Technology, which offers
turbo-boost capabilities to maximize system performance.
