Intel Embedded

Intel Embedded is a very low-end processor that runs at ultra-low power but provides up to 36 hours of battery life. Intel Embedded was introduced in February 1999 at the same time the Pentium 3 releases. Since Intel Quark was introduced, the Intel Embedded processor sales sharply declined. Intel Embedded will be cancelled in 2017 due to low sales.

1999-2003
Intel Embedded was introduced in Feburary 1999. Intel was considered that Intel Embedded will perform 45% worse than an Intel Celeron processor, however this processor will have more than 6 hours of battery life, rather than just 2 hours.

2000-2005
This logo is based on the Pentium 4 processor.

2003-2005
Since the Pentium M released, the name of this processor becomes "Pentium Embedded". This processor is not part of the Centrino package.

2005
In November 2005, Intel decided to introduce the Core Embedded processor at Public Beta. This processor isn't available in stores until July 2006 when the Core 2 Duo releases.

2006
In January 2006, the logo was changed to follow the other Intel Logo changes. The "Pentium Embedded" processor discontinues on July 2006.

2006-2009
In January 2006, the logo was changed to follow the other Intel Logo changes.

2009-2010
In 2009, a new logo was introduced. Due to recent conflicts on this processor, because of the words "core" means fast, and "embedded" means low-power, the Intel "Core Embedded" was discontinued in 2010, and the "Embedded" series was discontinued as well.

2012-2014
After nearly 2 years of the "Embedded" processor hiatus, the "Embedded" processors return to production. This time, it was an independent design, and it isn't based on any Intel processor.

2014-2015
After nearly 4 years of logo de-sync, the "Embedded" processor finally used the same logo as other processors. This processor is based on the Intel Quark processor. Notice the words "embedded", and "processor" aren't capitalized due to this processor running on ultra low-power.

2015-2017
In 2015, Intel introduced the last "Embedded" logo used for Intel embedded processors. Due to decline in sales since 2013, the Intel embedded processors will stop its production in 2017 after 18 years of it's introduction.
