Intel Atom C2538
Benchmarks & Specs

The Intel Atom C2538, representing the Avoton generation, was originally developed for specific tasks. Manufactured in the 22 nm process, this processor placed a strong focus on energy efficiency, making it particularly attractive for continuous running systems. We still often see this chip today in more compact server solutions or in dedicated network devices.

There, it plays to its strength by reliably providing stable performance for less demanding but critical workloads. With 2 MB of L2 cache and a maximum memory bandwidth of 26 GB/s, the Intel Atom C2538 was well equipped for its primary areas of application. The then support for PCIe 2.0 also offered sufficient flexibility for necessary expansions within its systems.

This processor is an example of hardware designed for durability and low power consumption. It proves that a specialized solution can continue to play an important role in certain niche applications, even after years. One notices that the focus here was on a permanently reliable function.

• High energy efficiency
