6th Generation Intel
®
Core
Processor-Based
Platforms for Internet of Things (IoT) Solutions
(Intel® Core™ i7-6700, i7-6700TE, i5-6500, i5-6500TE, i3-6100, and i3-6100TE processors)
(Intel® Pentium® G4400, G4400TE, and Intel® Celeron® G3900, G3900TE processors)
Product Overview
Intel is proud to announce its 6th
generation Intel® Core™ processor
family. Manufactured on the latest
14 nm technology, these processors
oer dramatically higher CPU and
graphics performance as compared to
the previous generation, a broad range
of power options, and new advanced
features to boost edge-to-cloud
Internet of Things (IoT) designs. The 6th
generation Intel Core processor family
also maintains a standardized thermal
envelope for 65W and 35W desktop
products, remaining consistent with
the previous processor generation,
and is as an ideal low-power option for
manufacturing exibility.
Stunning Visual Performance
The 6th generation Intel Core
processors utilize the new Gen9
graphics engine, which improves
graphic performance by up to 49
percent.

The improvements are
demonstrated through faster 3-D
graphics performance and rendering
applications at low power. Video
playback is also faster and smoother,
thanks to the new multiplane overlay
capability. The new generation oers
up to three independent audio streams
and displays, Ultra HD 4K support, and
workload consolidation for lower BOM
costs and energy output.
Users will also enjoy enhanced
high-density streaming applications
and optimized 4K video conferencing
with accelerated 4K hardware media
codecs HEVC (8-bit), VP8, VP9, and
VDENC encoding, decoding, and
transcoding. Together, the stunning
visual performance enhancements
add up to more immersive
computing experiences.
Power-Efficient Performance
The new 6th gen Intel Core processors
make a powerful dierence on the
eciency front as well. The improved
technology promises up to 35 percent
faster CPU
