ARM today introduced its latest processor chip for smartphones and other mobile devices. The Cortex-A15 MPCore adds hardware support for OS virtualization, soft-error recovery, and larger memory capabilities while maintaining the Cortex line's power efficiency. It works with a number of mobile and software platforms, such as Android, Flash, Java SE, Java FX, Linux, Window Embedded 7, Symbian and Ubuntu. The Cortex-A15 MPCore processor will be initially targeting 32nm and 28nm technologies with a roadmap extending to 20nm. ARM says the Cortex-A15 MPCore can range up to 2.5GHz for advanced applications, though its smartphone-compatible dual-core processors will cap off at 1.5GHz.
