Samsung’s New 45nm Application Processor: ARM11- S5P6440
Samsung, the world’s leader in advanced semiconductor solutions, has announced its latest and popular, ARM11 series of application processors, the S5P6440 which will be using Samsung’s advanced 45nm low power CMOS process technology to offer a high performance, and cost effective solution for consumer electronic products such as personal navigation devices.
Lets check out its specs:
- It is based on an ARM1176 CPU core running at either 533 MHz or 667MHz clock speed. Handles the multiprocessing requirements in real-life applications by allowing ample input/output bandwidth with the help of CPU core and all on-chip hardware accelerators and peripheral interfaces connected through a 64-bit AXI bus running at 166MHz.
- Featuring a 2D graphics acceleration hardware which is suppled with OpenVG application programming interface (API) standard enabling advanced graphics functions such as anti-aliasing for sharper graphics, alpha blending for transparency effects, and vector graphics support for scaling without loss of image quality.
- Advanced NAND, the error correction hardware is included to support current and next generation MLC NAND flash devices to offer higher storage density at lower cost.
- It is also integrated with a DRAM memory controller to support both mobile DDR and DDR2 memory chips.
- This application processor supports all major high-level operation systems including Linux and WinCE which allows PND and OEMs manufacturers to differentiate their products through a rich, easy-to-use, customizable user interface.
This application processor is being sampled to key customers now and is scheduled for volume shipment in third quarter of this year.
