Introduction to Intel® Architecture
White Paper Introduction to intel ArchitectureExecutive SummaryThe term intel Architecture encompasses a combination of microprocessors and supporting hardware that creates the building blocks for a variety of computing systems. Although the Architecture is straightforward and remarkably well-supported, the workings of these components may not be obvious to engineers, programmers, or product developers with no previous intel Architecture experience. This paper describes the basic operations and functions of the relevant components, using three example systems. Specifically, the paper will focus on the intel Core i7 processor (high-performance) and the intel Atom processor (low-power) implementations. In each case, the paper will walk the reader through the operation of the microprocessor s communication with memory and peripheral I/O devices, the interaction between different types of components, and related design criteria.
Generally speaking, every Intel architecture hardware platform will include two major components: the microprocessor chip, and a companion chip known as the platform controller hub (PCH). In earlier times, Intel® processors were paired with two companion chips, often called the “north bridge” and *
