ARM Cortex-A7 IS Most Energy Efficient Application Processor Ever
ARM has launched the Cortex-A7 MPCore processor, which is aid to be the most energy efficient application class processor it has yet developed and the part features big.LITTLE processing, described as a flexible approach that redefines the traditional relationship between power and performance. ARM claims that the A7 will double the performance of its existing Cortex A8 family through a combination of process shrinks and improvements at the level of microarchitecture, A7′s design improvements over the older A8 core are possible because ARM has had the past three years to carefully study how the Android OS uses existing ARM chips in the course of normal usage. The single-core chip was designed for use in budget-friendly smartphones that will be priced under $100 and the first smartphones to use the new chip are expected to hit the market in 2013……………….
