The Yonah CPU was launched in January 2006 under the Core brand. Single and dual-core versions were sold under the Core Solo and Core Duo brands respectively (the Solo processor being a Duo, but with one disabled core). These processors provided partial solutions to some of the foregoing Pentium M's shortcomings, by adding to its P6 microarchitecture:
* SSE3 Support
* Dual-core technology with shared L2 cache (restructuring processor organization)
This resulted in the interim microarchitecture for mobile only CPUs, part way between P6 and the next all processor Core microarchitecture introduced with the CPUs branded Core 2, Pentium Dual-Core, Celeron, and Xeon.
It is important to note, that some Pentium Dual-Core branded CPUs (T2060, T2080 and T2130) are Yonah-based.
