Platforms

We offer platforms that incorporate various components and technologies. A platform typically includes a microprocessor, chipset, and enabling software, and may include additional hardware, services, and support. In developing our platforms, we may include components made by other companies. A component is one of any number of software or hardware features that may be incorporated into a computer, handheld device, or other computing system, including a microprocessor, chipset, motherboard, memory, wired or wireless connectivity device, or software. Platforms based on our latest generation Intel Core microarchitecture integrate a memory controller into each microprocessor and connect processors and other components with a high-speed interconnect. We refer to certain platform brands within our product offerings as processor technologies.
