VIA Announces New Nano X2 E-Series Dual Core Processors
VIA Technologies today announced that it will release its latest edition to its new family of low power dual core VIA Nano X2 Series processors. Available in two models running at speeds of 1.2+ GHz and 1.6+ GHz, VIA Nano X2 E-Series Processors also come with a component longevity guarantee of 7 years.
Leveraging the 40-nm manufacturing process, VIA Nano X2 E-Series processors combine two 64-bit, superscalar VIA Nano cores on one die. Each processor comes in VIA NanoBGA2 package of 21mm x 21mm with a die size of 11mm x 6mm. They are also fully pin-to-pin compatible with VIA Eden, VIA C7 and VIA Nano E-Series, and VIA Eden X2 processors.
The new processors bring additional features that include VIA VT virtualization, a technology that allows legacy software and applications to be used in virtual scenarios without impacting on performance. Another feature — VIA AES Security Engine — offers hardware-based data encryption on the fly.
VIA Nano X2 E-Series processors are natively 64-bit compatible, supporting Windows Embedded Standard 7. They also fully support Windows CE and Linux operating systems.
Highlights:
- Power-efficient architecture
- 7-year longevity guarantee
- Advanced multi-core processing
- Native support for 64-bit operating systems
- High-performance superscalar processing
- Out-of-order x86 architecture
- Efficient speculative floating point algorithm
- Full processor virtualization support
- Advanced power and thermal management
- VIA AES hardware security features
- Pin-to-pin compatibility with VIA processors range
VIA Nano X2 E-Series Processors are sampling now to project customers. Systems and boards featuring VIA Nano X2 E-Series processors will be available in Q2 2011.
