Samsung Exynos 4 Quad

 

So we’ve got the first confirmed feature that is expected in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy device. It’s the quad-core processor aka Exynos 4 Quad which Samsung announced today. The Exynos 4 Quad is built using Samsung’s 32nm High-k Metal Gate (HKMG) low-power process technology and is based on four ARM Cortex A9 chips clocked at 1.4GHz.

Samsung says the new quad-core Exynos pips the current generation of dual-core Exynos 4 and gives double the processing power at 20 percent low power consumption. Such improvement is a result of the adoption of hot-plug functionality that powers on and off each core when needed and controls per-core voltage and core frequency dynamically (DVFS).

Amongst other things, the SoC supports full HD 1080p video playback and recording, 3D support, HDMI 1.4 and integrated imaging signal processor.

Samsung says the chip is already in production.
