Available in 866, 800EB, 733B, 667B,
600EB, and 533EB MHz speeds to support a
133MHz system bus ("E" denotes support
for Advanced Transfer Cache and Advanced
System Buffering; "B" denotes support for a
133 MHz system bus
See Table 1 for a summary of features for
each line item.)
Available in 850, 800, 750, 700, 650, 600E,
550E, and 500E MHz speeds for support of a
100 MHz system bus frequency (‘E’ denotes
support for Advanced Transfer Cache and
Advanced System Buffering)
Available in versions that incorporate
256 KB Advanced Transfer Cache (on-die,
full speed Level 2 (L2) cache with Error
Correcting Code (ECC))
Dual Independent Bus (DIB) architecture:
Separate dedicated external System Bus and
dedicated internal high-speed cache bus
Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions for
enhanced video, sound and 3D performance

Power Management capabilities
— System Management mode
— Multiple low-power states
Optimized for 32-bit applications running on
advanced 32-bit operating systems
Flip Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA) packaging
technology; FC-PGA processors deliver high
performance with improved handling protection
and socketability
Integrated high performance 16 KB instruction
and 16 KB data, nonblocking, level one cache
256 KB Integrated Full Speed level two cache
allows for low latency on read/store operations
Double Quad Word Wide(256bit) cache data
bus provides extremely high throughput on
read/store operations.
8-way cache associativity provides improved
cache hit rate on reads/store operations.
Error-correcting code for System Bus data
Enables systems which are scaleable for up to
two processors
The Pentium
®
III
processor is designed for high-performance desktops and for workstations and servers.
It is binary compatible with previous Intel Architecture processors. The Pentium
III
processor provides
great performance for applications running on advanced operating systems such as Windows* 98,
Windows NT and UNIX*. This is achieved by integrating the best attributes of Intel processors—the
dynamic execution, Dual Independent Bus architecture plus Intel MMX™ technology and Internet
Streaming SIMD Extentions—bringing a new level of performance for systems buyers. The Pentium
III
processor is scaleable to two processors in a multiprocessor system and extends the power of the
Pentium II processor with performance headroom for business media, communication and internet
capabilities. Systems based on Pentium
III
processors also include the latest features to simplify system
management and lower the cost of ownership for large and small business environments. The Pentium
III
processor offers great performance for today’s and tomorrow’s applications
