According to the latest Intel’s plans update we saw here, the company decided to cancel Coppermine-T processor. At first this CPU was planned to be a transitional solution between the regular Pentium III processors and new Pentium III built on a 0.13 micron Tualatin core. It was supposed to be distinguished from the ordinary 0.18 micron Coppermine by the support of 1.2V AGTL+ bus used in Tualatin as well. So, Coppermine-T was the youngest and the cheapest processor supported by Almador, which Intel aimed particularly for use with Tualatin processors.
However, now that Almador is canceled Intel has changed its plans concerning Coppermine-T processor. since Tualatin will now be supported by a new i815 chipset version (B-step), which will be compatible with Coppermine, there will be no real need in Coppermine-T CPU. Instead Intel will simply launch a regular Pentium III Coppermine with new D0 core stepping. The CPUs with a renewed core will feature higher Vcore (up to 1.75V) and hence will be able to work at 1.13GHz, the top rate for Coppermine processors.
