Samsung’s dual-core Exynos 5250 is the only SoC that is based on ARM’s Cortex-A15. Now some new information has surfaced on Samsung’s Kernel Git page that reveals a quad-core processor based on ARM Cortex-A15. Samsung has added a patch to support the new processor dubbed as Exynos 5440. The reference board is identified as “SSDK5440.”
While the clock speed and other details are a mystery, the new SoC could support ARM’s big.LITTLE processing technology.
Awesome!!!
First in class…
cant wait for it to be on s4
Oh this won’t be in the S4 the exynos 5 dual core will be their going to sick with that processor for all of next year, the quad may be in the redesigned note 10.1 later this year???
it’ll be in the s4 I would almost put money on it. The only real question is if it will be the big.little 4+4 or just A15 quad core
Idk it just comes off as ridiculous overkill for a phone, I’m going with the exynos 5 but hell that would definitely slap apple if they put this quad one in lol
big.LITTLE is an A15 CPU paired with an A7. Last I heard, the A7 wasn’t ready yet. I figured this was just a regular A15 quad core. Am I missing something?
