Pine Trail is the code name for Intel’s next generation Atom platform. Pine Trail’s CPU, the single-core Atom N450 “Pineview” processor (confusing, I know), is a more highly integrated version of Atom that puts the memory controller and GPU on the same die as the CPU. As the diagram above shows, this move will shrink the number of chips in the Atom platform from three to just two.
Cindy Ng, Intel Netbook Marketing Team, demonstrates the Intel Atom Processor N450 for netbooks and the Intel Atom Processor D410 and D510 for entry-level desktops in the following video:
What To Expect From Pine Trail Netbooks?
The new processors will consume 20% less power and also feature a lower thermal design. What this means is that a Pine Trail netbook will get longer battery life compared to the previous generation netbook. Also, it will be easier for PC makers to design smaller, thinner, and occasionally fanless netbooks. According to Intel, there will be 80 over netbooks with the new processor showing up at CES 2010, which includes most major PC makers such as Acer, Asus, Dell, Fujitsu, Lenovo, MSI, Samsung, and Toshiba.
