ARM has declared it has built-up dual-core Cortex A9 processors able of conveying clock speeds in surplus of 2GHz.

The latest processors will be feigned by means of TSMC's 40nm creation procedure, enabling them to achieve such elevated clocks with comparatively little power utilization. The innovative parts should convey 4,000 DMIPS while overwhelming fewer than 250mW for each CPU. ARM also tuned the design by changing physical IP with logic cells as well as memory that can drop utilization even more.

ARM has by now started licensing the structural design plus guesses the former products to be accessible in Q4. It's still not comprehensible what the target market for the latest CPU will be. You should most likely guess them in smartbook as well as MIDs, even though we wouldn't be amazed if a few vendors control to grasp them in to high-end smartphones later on.
