Embedded Pentium MMX microprocessors were produced at speeds ranging from 166 MHz to 266 MHz. Their architecture was very close (if not the same) as architecture of mobile Pentium MMX CPUs. Like the mobile Pentium MMX CPUs, embedded Pentium MMX microprocessors operated at lower core voltage, and in some cases at lower I/O voltage. Combined with advanced 0.25 manufacturing process this resulted in very low power consumption. For example, embedded Pentium MMX 266 in plastic BGA package had almost the same maximum power dissipation and thermal design power as desktop Pentium non-MMX 75 MHz.

Some embedded microprocessors had multiprocessing feature disabled, and they could not recognize upgrade processor installed in an upgrade socket.

Embedded Pentiums were fabricated in plastic PGA package (the same package that was used for desktop and mobile Pentium MMX CPUs), and in smaller High-thermal Low-profile Plastic Ball Grid Array (HL-PBGA) package.

Embedded Pentium 266 was packaged in plastic ball grid array package called HL-PBGA. This CPU was made on 0.25 micron technology, and with just 2.0V core voltage and 2.5V I/O voltage, it typically used less power than Pentium non-MXX 120 MHz, and had maximum power consumption on a par with Pentium non-MMX 75 MHz.
