The Intel Processor N200 is a mobile processor with 4 cores, launched in January 2023, at an MSRP of $193. It is part of the Intel Processor lineup, using the Alder Lake-N architecture with BGA 1264. Processor N200 has 6 MB of L3 cache and operates at 100 MHz by default, but can boost up to 3.7 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is making the Processor N200 on a 10 nm production node, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Processor N200, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 6 W, the Processor N200 consumes extremely little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a single-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 4800 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the machine, Processor N200 uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the UHD Graphics 770 integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Processor N200, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.
