Socket S1 is a 638 pin, low profile, ZIF, 1.27mm pitch socket.[1] It replaces the existing Socket 754 in the mobile computing segment (e.g. laptops).
Socket S1 CPUs can include support for dual-channel DDR2 SDRAM, dual-core mobile CPUs, and virtualization technology, and compete with the mobile Intel Core 2 processor series.[2]
