Available in 1B GHz, 933, 866, 800EB, 733,
667, 600EB, and 533EB MHz for a
133 MHz system bus
Available in 900, 850, 800, 750, 700, 650,
600E, 550E, and 500E MHz for a 100 MHz
system bus
System bus frequency at 100 MHz and
133 MHz ("E" denotes support for Advanced
Transfer Cache and Advanced system
buffering; "B" denotes support for a
133MHz system bus where both bus
frequencies are available for order per each
given core frequency; See Table 1 for a
summary of features for each line item.)
Available in versions that incorporate
256 KB Advanced Transfer Cache (on-die,
full speed Level 2 (L2) cache with Error
Correcting Code (ECC))
Dual Independent Bus (DIB) architecture:
Separate dedicated external System Bus and
dedicated internal high-speed cache bus
Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions for
enhanced video, sound and 3D performance

System Management mode
Multiple low-power states
Optimized for 32-bit applications running on
advanced 32-bit operating systems
Flip Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA) packaging
technology; FC-PGA processors deliver high
performance with improved handling protection
and socketability
Integrated high performance 16 KB instruction
and 16 KB data, nonblocking, level one cache
256 KB Integrated Full Speed level two cache
allows for low latency on read/store operations
Double Quad Word Wide(256bit) cache data
bus provides extremely high throughput on
read/store operations.
8-way cache associativity provides improved
cache hit rate on reads/store operations.
Error-correcting code for System Bus data
Enables systems which are scaleable for up to
two processors
The Pentium® III processor is designed for high-performance desktops and for workstations and
servers. It is binary compatible with previous Intel Architecture processors. The Pentium III processor
provides great performance for applications running on advanced operating systems such as Windows*
98, Windows NT and UNIX*. This is achieved by integrating the best attributes of Intel processors—
the dynamic execution, Dual Independent Bus architecture plus Intel MMX™ technology and Internet
Streaming SIMD Extentions— bringing a new level of performance for systems buyers. The Pentium®
III processor is scaleable to two processors in a multiprocessor system and extends the power of the
Pentium® II processor with performance headroom for business media, communication and internet
capabilities. Systems based on
Pentium® III processors also
include the latest features to
simplify system management and
lower the cost of ownership for
large and small business
environments. The Pentium® III
processor offers great performance
for today’s and tomorrow’s
applications.
