Tiger Lake
Intel microprocessor family
This article is about the microprocessor family. For other uses, see Tiger Lake (disambiguation).
Tiger Lake is Intel's codename for the 11th generation Intel Core mobile processors based on the Willow Cove Core microarchitecture, manufactured using Intel's third-generation 10 nm process node known as 10SF ("10 nm SuperFin"). Tiger Lake replaces the Ice Lake family of mobile processors,[4] representing an optimization step in Intel's process–architecture–optimization model.

Tiger Lake processors launched on September 2, 2020, are part of the Tiger Lake-U (however, they end with the suffixes -G4 and -G7 instead of -U) family and include dual-core and quad-core 9 W (7–15 W) TDP and 15 W (12–28 W) TDP models.[5] They power 2020 Intel Evo laptops.[6][7][8] The quad-core 96 EU die measures 13.6 × 10.7 mm (146.1 mm2), which is 19.2% wider than the 11.4 × 10.7 mm (122.5 mm2) quad-core 64 EU Ice Lake die. The 8-core 32 EU die used in Tiger Lake-H is around 190 mm2.[9] According to Yehuda Nissan and his team, the architecture is named after a lake across Puget Sound, Washington from Seattle.[10] Laptops based on Tiger Lake started to sell in October 2020.[11]
The Tiger Lake-H35 processors were launched on January 11, 2021. These quad-core processors are designed for "ultraportable gaming" laptops with 28-35 W TDP.[12] Intel officially launched the 11th generation Intel Core-H series and Xeon W-11000M series on May 11, 2021[13] and announced the 11th generation Intel Core Tiger Lake Refresh series (1195G7 and 1155G7) on May 30, 2021.[14]
