Intel Brings 18A Silicon To Orbit With Starfire, A Space-Grade SoC Rated For 125°C And Radiation

The Intel Starfire SoCs will come in two flavors, a low-power SKU and a Performance SKU. Both SKUs feature the same 8-core configuration with 4 P-Cores and 4 LPE cores. The clock speeds for the Low-Power SKU are rated at 1 GHz (P-Cores) and 850 MHz (LPE Cores), while the Performance SKU is rated at 3.1 GHz (P-Cores) and 2.1 GHz (LPE Cores). These chips are essentially based on the Panther Lake 4Xe3 SKU.
