What speedstep frequencies does an atom n550 support?

The Intel mobile Atom processors N450 and N550 claim to support SpeedStep meaning the CPU can throttle back to a slower speed when idle to save energy. I'd like to know what frequency steps the N550 supports.

This can be seen in the scaling_available_frequencies file in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ on a linux computer.

For the N450, the frequencies are: 1666000 1333000 1000000 (1.66, 1.33, and 1.0 GHz)

I'm interested in the same information for the N550.

    cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

    1500000 1000000

    Seems like there are only two frequencies available ...
