The Intel Core m3-8100Y is a mobile (laptop) processor with 2 cores, released in 2018. It is part of the Core m3 lineup, using the 8th Gen platform, and uses the FCBGA1515 package, which is soldered to the laptop's motherboard rather than socketed. Internally, it is built on the "Amber Lake-Y" architecture. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading, each core can handle two instruction streams simultaneously, yielding a total of 4 threads for improved parallelism. The Core m3-8100Y has a base clock of 1.1 GHz and can boost up to 3.4 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Amber Lake-Y" silicon on a 14 nm process node. This processor supports DDR4/LPDDR3 memory. With a base TDP of 5W the Core m3-8100Y is an ultra-low-power design aimed at thin-and-light laptops. Integrated graphics are provided by the UHD Graphics 615 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy includes 4MB of L3 cache.
