ARM creates 2GHz Dual-core Cortex-A9 processor

ARM

 

ARM-based chips are mostly used in consumer electronic devices that demand less processing power but today’s introduction of a dual-core Cortex-A9 processor is set to change that. ARM has unveiled the new processor that clocks 2GHz of speed while consuming only 1.9 watts of power. According to tests done by ARM, the new processor expectedly, beats Intel’s single-core N270 clocked at 1.6GHz.

However, despite the processing power, ARM loses out on software front. The highest selling Windows OS supports only x86 and x64 architectures leaving the ARM architecture to support Linux and only Windows CE.

The first devices powered by the Cortex-A9 chip are expected in the first half of next year from its 15 partners including Toshiba, Nvidia and Samsung.
