INTEL OverDriveÉ PROCESSORS 290436 – 28 Figure 1-2. Upgrade Choices 1.1.1 IntelDX2 TM OverDriveÉ PROCESSOR The IntelDX2 OverDrive processor is the entry-level processor upgrade designed for most Intel486 SX and Intel486 DX processor-based systems. Based on the IntelDX2 processor, it features the Intel speed doubling technology. This accelerates both integer and floating point software, to deliver performance equivalent to a similarly configured IntelDX2 processor-based system. The IntelDX2 OverDrive processor integrates an integer unit, a floating point math coprocessor unit, a memory management unit and an 8 KByte cache on a single chip. The speed doubling technology allows the processor to operate internally at twice the speed of the system bus; up to a maximum of 66 MHz for a 33 MHz system. The IntelDX2 OverDrive processor comes in two package offerings; 168-lead Pin Grid Array (PGA) and 169-lead PGA. It is designed to be installed into the OverDrive processor socket of Intel486 SX and DX processor-based systems. It can also replace the existing processor in single-socket systems. 1.1.2 IntelDX4 TM OverDriveÉ PROCESSOR The IntelDX4 OverDrive processor is an upgrade designed for most Intel486 SX and Intel486 DX processor-based systems. Utilizing the Intel speed tripling technology, the IntelDX4 OverDrive processor accelerates both integer and floating point software, achieving performance comparable to a similarly configured IntelDX4 processor-based system. 7
