While
many of us are waiting for Cortex-based mobile Internet devices to
appear in late 2008, there is one little stepping stone that could form
an impressive bridge into the next-gen for ARM-based devices. Its the
multi-core capable ARM11 architechture (MPCore.)
A little research reveals that up to four cores can be combined to produce some impressive processor performance figures. Think 4 Nokia N810 cores working together!
Nvidia have taken it a step further though and licensed the architecture from ARM to built a system on chip, the APX 2500, that includes 3D and hi-end video processing to make, what appears to be, a bloody impressive system. The 3D support means that developers can do cool stuff with UI’s. The video support means it will work as a PVR for HD content and the multi-core capability (it’s not clear if Nvidia have actually implemented multiple cores) boosts performance for operating systems that can handle it.
