Foxton is an Intel code-name for a power-management technology that was originally planned for inclusion in the first dual-core Itanium 2 processor (code-named Montecito). By providing very granular control of voltages and clock frequencies within the processor, it enables software performance to be optimized for specific workloads, while ensuring that power consumption remains below a particular value.
Foxton is an Intel code name for a power management technology designed to optimize software performance by controlling voltage and clock speeds in the Itanium 2 processor (Montecito). This technology ensures efficient power usage, keeping energy consumption within a specified threshold.
