Desktop Performance, Embedded Design The VIA C7® processor is the smallest, lowest power, most efficient and most secure native x86 processor in the world, packing unbeatable performance per watt onto the tiny die of just 30mm2. Built on the advanced VIA CoolStream™ architecture, the VIA C7® processor is designed to extend the digital lifestyle by combining robust performance, with ultra low power consumption and highly efficient heat dissipation. Manufactured using state-of-the-art 90 nm process technology, the VIA C7® processor sets new standards in integration and performance — all within an industry-leading thermal profile. The VIA C7® is ideal for a wide range of next generation compact systems, including quiet desktops and mini PCs, green clients, ultra portable notebooks, personal electronics such as PVRs and home media centers, and high density or very small server appliances. The VIA C7® processor also heralds an era of practical pervasive security thanks to the greatly augmented VIA PadLock™ Hardware Security Suite — the world’s most advanced on-die hardware acceleration security featuring key cryptographic operations which can be quickly and easily deployed in connected PC devices. The VIA C7® NanoBGA2 package measures just 21 mm x 21 mm, opening up exciting new possibilities in system design innovation. VIA C7® processor systems offer smooth playback of MPEG-2 and MP3 audio, Voice over IP telephony and video conferencing, and much more. It can be combined with a rich selection of VIA companion chips for a balanced platform for selective system design. Targeted at Key Embedded Markets Validated with the Following Chipsets Compact server appliances High density servers Public information/entertainment kiosks Point-of-Sales systems Intelligent displays Edge networking devices Hospital monitoring systems Municipal control & monitoring systems Processor Brand Clock Speed
