Intel is launching a new mobile processor, which it said is a budget-friendly chip designed to improve performance and battery life and support artificial-intelligence workloads.

The Intel Core Series 3 mobile processors, built on the foundation of Intel's Core Ultra Series 3 chips, will be marketed to small businesses, schools and home users, the company said Thursday.

"At a time when prices are rising and expectations are shifting, Intel Core Series 3 elevates value-orientated computing with exceptional battery life, boosted AI-ready performance and broad ecosystem choice," said Josh Newman, the general manager of Intel's Consumer PC segments.

The processors are designed for all-day battery life and can support AI edge computing in robotics and smart devices, the company says.

Intel began supplying the processors through its OEM partners on Thursday, and said edge systems powered by the chips will be available in the second quarter.

Shares of Intel were up 4.1% to $67.63 as of midday Thursday. The stock is up 83% this year.
