| NVIDIA's Tegra 3 (Kal-El) Quad-Core Mobile Superchip Detailed I was lucky enough to be invited to the secret unveiling of NVIDIA's upcoming Tegra 3 conference call last week where we had unveiled to us their upcoming quad-core Kal-El chip. I've covered NVIDIA's Tegra 3 chip for quite a while now, as I believe it'll be the first real step toward a totally new direction in technology. It sounds like a bold claim, but by the end of this article you'll have your eyes opened to a totally different perspective, not only of NVIDIA, but of things to come. NVIDIA chose to use a more intelligent design with Tegra 3 which requires decisions early on in the development process. This is why the companion core was made and used, as well as Tegra 3 being the world's first variable processor. Tegra 3 sports a 500-percent increase in horsepower over the Tegra 2, all while using less power than the Tegra 2 and up to 67-percent less power than most other SoC (system-on-a-chip) solutions on the market. Tegra 3 also supports 3D Stereoscopic and is the first time that a PC-class CPU is made available to mobile devices. http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/44...led/index.html |
