SECTION
. INTRODUCTION Inc s The VIA Eden-N processor is based on a unique internal architecture and is manufactured using an ad- vanced 0.13µ CMOS technology. This architecture and the processe technology provide a highly compatible, high-performance, low-cost and low-power consumptiongi solutionl for fanless, embedded markets. The VIA Eden-N processor is available at numerouso operating frequencies.a When considered individually, the compatibility, function, performance, icost and power dissipationd of the VIA Eden-N processor family are all very competitive. When considered as a whole,e the VIA Eden-N processor family offers a breakthrough level of value. nt r hnol i c ide qu 1.1 DATASHEET OUTLINE e e The intent of this datasheet is to makeT it easy for a nfdirect user—a board designer, a system designer, or a BIOS developer—to use the VIA Eden-N processor.o R In the datasheet, Section 1 summarizesA the Ckey features of the VIA Eden-N processor. Section 2 specifies the primary programmingI interface and Section 3 does theA same for the bus interface. Sections 4, 5 and 6 specify the classicalV datasheet topics of AC timings, balloutsD and mechanical specifications. Section 7 documents the VIA Eden-N processorN machine specific registers (MSRs).
