Intel has historically named integrated circuit (IC) development projects after geographical

names of towns, rivers or mountains near the location of the Intel facility responsible for the

IC. Many of these are in the American West, particularly in the state of Oregon (where most

of Intel's CPU projects are designed; see well-known project codenames). As Intel's

development activities have expanded, this nomenclature has expanded to Israel and India.

Some older codenames refer to celestial bodies. There is a pattern with recent desktop

processors. Since Core 2 all quad-core desktop processors tend to end in "field" (e.g.

Kentsfield, Bloomfield, Lynnfield) and most desktop dual-cores end in "dale" (e.g. Wolfdale,

Allendale, Clarksdale), with the exception of Arrandale, a mobile processor codename for the

mobile i3/i5/i7s. Platforms consisting of a CPU plus a Southbridge end in "trail" (e.g. Bone

Trail, Skull Trail, Pine Trail). Server processors for two sockets now end in "town" (e.g.

Harpertown, Gainestown, Gulftown), while server processors for four or more sockets end in

"ton" (Tigerton, Dunnington, Beckton).

Intel maintains a website http://ark.intel.com/#codenamesall that lists the codenames for all

publicly released products.

The following table lists known Intel codenames along with a brief explanation of their

meaning and their likely namesake, and the year of their earliest known public appearance.
