HFM is the high frequency mode, Intel's guaranteed base clock. The N100 has only efficient cores. ARK states no core-type rows and no base clock.

It names no SKU, so the N100's own core count and clocks come from the ARK page and the datasheet.10Press articlecnx-software.com/2023/01/03/meet-intel-processor-and-core-i3-n-series-alder-lake-n-series-processorsRead 16 October 2026The article says the chips use the Gracemont efficiency cores from Alder Lake and no performance cores.- Cores
