The T5800 -- codename Merom -- is part of Intel's T5000 line of dual-core mobile processors. The T5800 is the second most powerful processor of the 13 different models that make up the T5000 line. It is a Socket P processor with two processing cores, two threads and a clock speed of 2.0 gigahertz. The T5800 also has 2 megabytes of Level 2 cache and a front-side bus speed of 800 megahertz. It does not feature front-side bus parity.
Architecture
-
The Intel T5800 has a maximum power consumption of 35 watts and a voltage identification (VID) range of between 1.075 volts and 1.175 volts. The T5800 uses a 64-bit instruction set. Its Level 1 cache is comprised of a combination of two 32-kilobyte instruction caches and two 32-kilobyte write-back data caches. It has a clock multiplier of 10, M0 core stepping, a 0.065-micron manufacturing process and an integrated floating point unit.
