What is big.LITTLE Processing?

The word "big.LITTLE" sounds familiar if you haven't slept under a rock for few weeks back. So many questions popping up in mind, what does it mean? how it works? why it's so important?..etc
Rumors brought this word back in to the stage saying Samsung's next years flagship, which is Galaxy S iv to feature an Octa Core processor with big.LITTLE technology. Lets find out what's this all about.


big.LITTLE is a processor architecture found by ARM Holdings in October 2011. Since they have launched the Cortex-A7 processor ,which is architectural wise compatible with the Cortex-A15 processor, big.LITTLE processing revealed to the world.
"The Right Processor for the Right Job" was the title ARM used to describe the meaning of big.LITTLE architecture. The "big" stands for the powerful high performance Cortex-A15 cores and "LITTLE" for the entry level power efficient Cortex-A7 cores. Due to their architectural similarities, these cores can seamlessly switch between one and another according to the workload. The diagram below can explain the process.

Nvidia to showcase Tegra 4 Processor at CES 2013

It seems Nvidia isn't planing to launch the successor to Tegra 3 processor this year. Rumors says that, Nvidia is hoping to debut the new Tegra 4 processor at upcoming CES 2013 tech keynote. It might be true since we saw the Roadmap of Nvidia Tegra lineup shows 2012 Q4 to 2013 Q1 will be the time period Nvidia to launch "Wayne" chip which is to be called as Nvidia Tegra 4.
The performance of the new chip is reportedly super fast than the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 pro which uses four Krait cores. It's not a amazing fact since Tegra 4 is expected to feature four Cortex A-15 based cores and a one companion core  to manage power. It's clear that Nvidia will give a good fight to other competitors like Qualcomm,Ti-OMAP and Exynos.


Nvidia Tegra 4 is supposed to perform twice as fast as the Tegra 3 and ten times faster than Tegra 2 dual core. Next, it comes to the graphic processing side. What will Nvidia plan to improve the graphics? Well, According to Nvidia, they have Testing a "Kepler" architecture based GPU instead of ULP Geforce GPU.

New Nvidia tegra 3 Architecture

Hello folks, this is my 1st blog post and it's about the new Nvidia Tegra 3 processor Architecture.lets see whats cool in it.


the main difference of Tegra3 with other quad-core architectures is this thing got a fifth companion core.The job of this core is to handle all the usual menial tasks while the four performance cores rest, to be called upon only when there is a need for significant graphical muscle power, such as in 3D games. This results in amazing battery life because the companion core consumes very little power compared to the four cores.This kind of architecture is called as variable symmetric architecture.As in news say this processor have a new name called 4-PLUS-1
i think we can find out more about 4-PLUS-1 processor at Mobile World Congress.and this will be a good competitor for upcoming Samsung Exynos processor.
