Intel intrinsics support for Cloverview Atom processor

I have an application that was developed for Sandbridge processors using SSE for AVX, now I want the same application to run on Atom processors.

I recently browsed the network for internal support for Atom cloverview processors. Every time he mentions this, he supports SSE3.

But this means that it only supports up to SSE3 or additional SSE3 is included in SSE3.

The Intel Atom Architecture Guide states that all Atom processors support unidirectional extensions with multiple instructions up to SSE3 and SSSE3.

Can someone give me some clarity regarding the above as I am developing an application and I am not sure if SSSE3 should be included in my application.

If Intel Atom supports SSSE3, this will ease my pain.

Thanks in advance.

Cloverview, aka atom-z2760 supports SSSE3

See Intel Datasheet http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/atom/atom-z2760-datasheet.html

Look for SSSE3 and it says in section 1.4 in the Core Core section

Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 and 3 (SSE2 and SSE3) and optional Support for Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSSE3)
