Mobile Intel® 845 Chipset Family
Product overview:
The Mobile Intel® 845 Chipset family includes two new chipsets, the 845MP and 845MZ. Both are designed, validated and optimized for the Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor - M. The Intel® 845MP Chipset supports external graphics and Intel® 845MZ Chipset is optimized for value systems. These new platforms deliver the benefits of Intel® quality, reliability and stability that businesses need to deploy mobile computers with maximum ROI and performance headroom for the future.
The Intel 845MP/MZ Chipset family (82845MP/MZ Memory Controller Hub) offers external AGP 4X graphics support, a 400MHz processor system bus, and DDR 266 MHz SDRAM for up to 1GB memory support. DDR memory offers high reliability and consumes minimal power, critical to the mobile PC platform. The Intel 845MP/MZ Chipset family also supports Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep® technology, Deep and Deeper Sleep low power alert states, AGP Busy# that ensures a reliable mobile power management state transitions, and an internal mobile clock manager that automatically turns off the chipset clock during power management states.
The ICH3-M (82801 CAM I/O Controller Hub 3) makes a direct connection to 845MP/MZ for smoother and faster access to peripherals, providing more benefit for extended PC usage models.
Additionally, the chipset uses Intel's advanced mBGA packaging and supports 6 USB ports and Intel's I/O Hub Architecture that delivers fast communications and reduces latency time for I/O operations.
