Intel has made a big play for the expanding internet-of-things (IoT) market with an updated Atom processor that offers double the computing and three times the graphics performance. The E3900 family of three chips is an update to the E3800 from 2013.

Vice president in the Internet of Things Group Ken Caviasca, described the new chip family as a "very targeted product" and one that has been carefully designed to fit with the unique needs of the IoT market. The E3900 has focused on several aspects, massive scalability, interoperability and security.

The main feature of IoT is the fact that people expect to roll out a very large number of sensors and have them both share data and make sense of that data. As such, the E3900 has been designed to sit in both devices and gateways.

Caviasca is also proud of the chips "time coordinated computing" or TCC, which will enable different machines/sensors to work together very precisely such as on a production line.

Caviasca highlighting three main sectors that Intel will target, automotive, industrial and video. Which means imaging in autonomous cars, cameras and production lines, and IP cameras/network video recorders. The chips support Ultra HD/4K video at 60Hz.

It also includes a range of security specs, from video copy prevention HDCP2.2, to the new TPM 2.0 spec for secure crypto processors, to several specs added "because customers asked us to."

The E3900 family comprises the E3930, 40 and 50. The chips are slightly larger than the current E3800, but offer 1.7x computing performance and 2.9x graphics performance over it.

Intel hasn't released pricing, but it will be mid-to-high-end. The product life of the chip to be around three years, but with them deployed for up to 10 years.
