What the Celeron N2808 is
The Celeron N2808 refreshes low power Bay Trail-M on BGA 1170 with higher bursts. It runs 2 cores and 2 threads at 1.58 GHz base with bursts to 2.25 GHz. One megabyte of L2 cache covers web work. Power is 4.5 W on 22 nm from late 2014.
The extra burst over the N2807 smooths foreground tabs at similar power. Efficiency holds battery in school carts. HD Graphics from 311 MHz to 792 MHz plays video on notebook panels. The soldered package means the notebook choice locks everything.
DDR3L-1333 over two channels to 8 GB feeds cores and graphics. The N2808 covers refresh value notebooks where a little more burst must stay at 4.5 W.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The N2808 solders to BGA 1170 with 4.5 W notebook cooling. No swap exists. Refresh bodies pair it with small SSDs. Memory locks at purchase on soldered designs.
SoC SATA and USB serve peripherals. The LGA, PGA and BGA: CPU package types explained guide explains soldered limits.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
DDR3L-1333 over two channels to 8 GB suits refresh notebooks. Paired memory helps HD Graphics calls. Four gigabytes covers classroom use.
PCIe 2.0 with 4 lanes serves Wi-Fi and SSDs. A SATA SSD matches the power budget. Most builds stay integrated.
Cooling is passive leaning for 4.5 W. Bursts to 2.25 GHz trim with heat. Carts need ventilation.
Upgrade paths
On the same socket, the Intel Celeron N2807 at lower bursts below saves a little power, while the Intel Celeron N2830 at 2.16 GHz base with 7.5 W tuning above adds sustained speed. All share BGA-1170.
Braswell N3050 covers newer value duty. The N2808 holds refresh burst value at 4.5 W.
