The Intel microarchitecture code named Ivy Bridge (IVB) represents Intel's first processor (CPU) design that services product markets from high-end desktops to mission-critical computing. With one converged design, IVB enables a rich portfolio of products and meets power, performance, and cost targets through multiple die options and configurations. IVB is the first server CPU using Intel's 22-nm process technology. It achieves scalability in die size, core count, cache size, socket count, and memory size while improving power efficiency and decreasing idle power.
