    Intel goes into further detail on the new features of the mobile Pentium III in their technical specification. That list is as follows:

    Performance improved over existing mobile processors:

    • Supports the Intel Architecture with Dynamic Execution
    • Supports the Intel Architecture MMXTM technology
    • Supports Streaming SIMD Extensions for enhanced video, sound, and 3D performance
    • Supports Intel SpeedStep Technology
    • Integrated Intel Floating Point Unit compatible with the IEEE 754 standard

    On-die primary (L1) instruction and data caches:

    • 4-way set associative, 32-byte line size, 1 line per sector
    • 16-Kbyte instruction cache and 16-Kbyte write-back data cache
    • Cacheable range controlled by processor programmable registers
    On-die second level (L2) cache:
    • 8-way set associative, 32-byte line size, 1 line per sector
    • Operates at full core speed
    • 256-Kbyte, ECC protected cache data array

    GTL+ system bus interface:

    • 64-bit data bus, 100-MHz operation
    • Uniprocessor, two loads only (processor and I/O bridge/memory controller)
    • Integrated termination

    Pentium II processor clock control:

    • Quick Start for low power, low exit latency clock "throttling"
    • Deep Sleep mode for lower power dissipation
    Thermal diode for measuring processor temperature
