On July 30, Intel will officially debut the Tualatin chip, the first processor to be fashioned from the 0.13-micron process. The chip will run at higher clock speeds, operate at lower temperatures, and consume less power than 0.18-micron models, Intel representatives say. Such characteristics should help the Tualatin find use in server blades, mobile computers, and similar systems.

The Tualatin is a Pentium III processor that runs cooler and uses less power than its predecessors, an Intel spokesperson says.

The Tualatin chip will likely debut at two speeds, 1.13 GHz and 1.26 GHz, according to sources familiar with the chip maker's plans.

Current Intel processors including the Pentium 4, Pentium III, Celeron, and Xeon chips are built to a slightly larger 0.18-micron architecture.
