Samsung orion, processor with 1.5 ghz of power for the next generation of mobile phones
The Korean Samsung has just presented its new chip model designed to power its next generation of smart phones. Its name is Orion, and it will equip a minimum of 1.5 GHz clock speed. It would be a dual-core processor that would allow what is to come in tactile mobiles to develop functions and activities that today are very difficult to achieve (at least, if we do not want the thing to burn as a result of overexertion).
The Samsung Orion would be based on the ARM Cortex A9 platform (the generation immediately after that used by Samsung's high-end products, as well as the company's tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Tab), and would have its main role in serving high performance multimedia.
One of the first applications to ensure the processor Samsung Orion would be playing videos with high definition quality pure, or what is the same, with a resolution of 1080 lines (the phones that currently support HD videos play files 720 lines). In addition, it would offer a performance to get said reproduction to run at a rate of 30 images per second.
On the other hand, it would also offer the option of including a native HDMI 1.3 socket (the latest model, if we do not consider HDMI 1.4, especially prescribed for connections of devices compatible with 3D reproduction). In addition, it would allow to develop a graphic acceleration of content in three dimensions (by its process, not with the already known sense of depth that we would see in a cinema), as well as the real-time tuning of high definition television channels (HDTV). And for when is this atrocity? According to Samsung, the first devices equipped with this muscular chip will arrivebefore the end of the year, although the mass production of terminals based on the Samsung Orion will not arrive until 2011.
