Allwinner Technology, a leading fabless processor design company, today announced the release of its breakthrough dual core A23 processor for tablets. With more performance and less power consumption, the A23 is 2x more efficient than previous generation dual core processors.
To deliver ultimate efficiency, the A23 features a balance of advanced DVFS power management, lower power process technology, enhanced memory bandwidth, the energy-efficient ARM Cortex-A7 CPU architecture, ultra-low power talking standby, ultra-low power music playback, and more. As always, Allwinner is working closely with its partners to ensure that A23 tablet designs are stable and ready for market.
“Competition in the tablet space has heated up this year, and OEM brands need better processor choices in order to boost margins and gain market share,” noted Jack Lee, Director of Marketing at Allwinner. “The dual core A23 processor will help tablet brands win more business in highly-competitive emerging markets and in growing markets like educational tablets”.
Power, performance, and cost are critical factors to winning market share. Tablets powered by the A23 are highly cost-competitive, thanks to Allwinner’s expertise in highly-integrated processor design. High on-chip integration of peripherals like MIPI DSI, LVDS, USB OTG/Host, etc reduces overall system costs and tablet cost.
Allwinner’s core partners are scheduled to start delivering dual core A23 tablet samples in October. Early models include 7”, 7.85”, and 9” form factors with LCD resolutions of 800x480, 1024x600, 1024x768, and 1280x800.
Additionally, 2.75G (EDGE) 7” dual core tablets will be available for emerging markets like Brazil, India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and more.
