    Centrino is a platform-marketing initiative from Intel. It is not a mobile CPU - rather, the term covers a particular combination of mainboard chipset, mobile CPU and wireless network interface in the design of a laptop personal computer. To qualify for a Centrino label, laptop vendors must use all three Intel qualified parts under each platform. Refer to Montevina platform (2008) in which a second-generation Intel Core 2 Duo (codenamed Penryn) 45nm processor with 1066 MT/s FSB with clock speeds ranging from 2 GHz to 3.06 GHz, is part of the Centrino package.
