Ultra-low-voltage processor
Ultra-low-voltage processors are a class of microprocessor that are deliberately underclocked to consume less power, at the expense of performance.
These processors are commonly used in subnotebooks, netbooks, ultraportables and embedded devices, where low heat dissipation and long battery life are required.
