Paul, Re: Set top boxes, Do you know what CPU Scientific ATlanta uses.

(NYSE:SFA - news) said Monday it planned to increase production of the boxes that enable customers to receive cable and Internet services through their televisions to 500,000 units per quarter. Scientific-Atlanta said it originally planned to increase production of the Explorer 2000 digital interactive set-tops to 375,000 units from 250,000. The company said it now plans to reach 500,000 units per quarter by the end of the year.

Paul and Thread - <Intel's 0.18 micron 400 MHz Mobile Pentium II (Dixon QS) runs at 1.5 volts with a MAXIMUM power dissipation of 9.8 WATTS at 400 MHz.> I need to apologize to the thread. I believe I stated either here or on the AMD thread that these would run at 1.3V. I was thinking of something else. Still, 9.8 watts ain't too shabby for a mobile application. PB

Paul - RE: "Intel's 0.18 micron 400 MHz Mobile Pentium II (Dixon QS) runs at 1.5 volts with a MAXIMUM power dissipation of 9.8 WATTS at 400 MHz." What is that you say??? "Intel's .18 micron 400 MHz Mobile Pentium II (Dixon QS) runs at 1.5 volts"? Well, "The mobile Pentium II processor 366 MHz operates at an internal core voltage of 1.6 volts...", and this chip is made on the .25 micron process. intel.com So let me get this straight, Intel went to a much smaller die size, but only dropped the voltage .1? Let me guess your response - "Less power dissipation is more important in notebooks."
