Avem deja anuntate mai multe procesoare ARM quad-core, deoarece majoritatea producatorilor au optat pentru a imbunatati performanta prin inmultirea numarului de nuclee ce ruleaza in procesoarele lor. Se pare ca aceasta aeste calea mai usoara.

Nu acelas lucru l-a facut si compania americana Texas Instruments. Acestia au fost prezenti pe piata cu trei procesoare cortex A9 numite OMAP 430, OMAP 460 si OMAP 470, toate trei sunt ARM dual-core Cortex A9 si sunt catalogate ca facand parte din seria 4 de la TI, procesoare care au echipat mai multe tablete, inclusiv dintre cele produse pe piata chinezeasca. Trebuie sa spun, insa, ca nu este vorba despre tablete ieftine. Odata cu lansarea seriei 5, TI a anuntat ca schimba tehnologia, si in locul procesoarelor pe 45 nm va produce procesoare pe 26nm, ARM dual-core Cortex A15  cu performante imbunatatite, avand integrate si doua nuclee Cortex M. Aceste procesoare sunt capabile sa atinga viteza de 2 GHz, ofera suport pentru redare video stereoscopica, ofera suport pentru inregistrare 3D prin doua camere de pana la 12 Mp, ofera suport multi-display, suportand pana la trei ecrane plus o iesire HDMI. Performantele grafice au fost si ele imbunatatite.

Totodata TI a readus in atentie si un concept mai vechi, este vorba despre SoM – System on Module, astfel ca un singur modul LGA de 35.5mm x 24mm x 2.8mm, contine toate componentele unui sistem: Procesorul, memoria, sistemul de power management. Desi prin aceste doua procesoare, TI spera sa influenteze viitorul dispozitivelor mobile in lume, se pare ca pana acum producatorii nu s-au prea grabit sa adopte noua platforma, poate si datorita preturilor. Trebuie spus ca dispozitivele mobile nu sunt singura aplicabilitate a acestor procesoare. Desi platforma a fost preluata de mai multi dezvoltatori, dispozitivele intarzie sa apara. Speram totusi ca la inceputul anului viitor sa avem pe piata Archos G11 cu progesor TI OMAP 5 series. Dintre tabletele cu procesor TI OMAP 4 series, care se gasesc pe piata le aduc in atentie pe cele realizate in China, despre care am spus deja ca nu sunt niste tablete tocmai ieftine, si care, dupa cum veti vedea sunt produse de SmartQ.
