Truetouch and Tegra 3 mobile processor
NVIDIA has certified Cypress Semiconductor’s single-chip Truetouch system for its large touchscreens on the reference design for the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core mobile processor.
The reference design is a tablet form-factor device with a 10.1in screen targeted at upcoming high-performance Android 4.0-based tablets.
According to Cypress Semiconductor, Tegra 3 is the world’s first quad-core mobile processor for tablets and super phones and delivers up to 5x the performance of the first dual-core processor, Tegra 2.
Tegra 3 features a patent-pending Variable SMP (vSMP) architecture with a fifth lower-power ‘companion’ core, a PC-class CPU and 3x faster GPU with stereo 3D support to deliver the best combination of high performance and extended battery life.
