VIA announced today that the new HP 2133 Mini-Note PC features their low power VIA C7-M ULV processor. The HP Mini provides all the benefits of a notebook PC in an ultra-compact form factor, enabling students to take notes, research information online, share photos, and effortlessly carry all their homework and personal files around in one tiny device.
The VIA C7-M ULV processor is available at speeds from 1.0-1.6GHz with a maximum thermal design power (TDP) of only 3.5 watts, and idle power as low as 0.1 watt, helping to ensure enhanced battery life. It also features a low profile nanoBGA2 package measuring just 21mm x 21mm, enabling designs with drastically reduced weight, size, and thickness.
The VIA C7-M ULV processor delivers rich multimedia performance when paired with the VIA CN896 digital media chipset, which features the VIA Chrome9 HC integrated graphics processor (IGP) with DirectX 9.0 support for brilliant 3D graphics, and the Chromotion CE video display engine for a stunning video experience. Warm multi-channel sound is provided through the integrated VIA Vinyl Audio technology.
