Nvidia releases Tegra processors
NVIDIA is officially releasingtwo processors which it claims have a long battery life and can provide a 'computer on a chip' to surf the World Wide Wibble, play high-end games and display high-definition video.
Charlie brought us all the gen on these babies last week.
The Tegra 600 and Tegra 650 processors have been targeted at portable, visual devices and at Intel's Atom chip playground.
Nvidia wants the Tegra chips, which are based around its APX2500 processor, to be bought by the makers of smartphones and handsets. The area is what Intel calls MIDs or small super compact computers.
The Tegra architecture is 193 sq mm including a peripheral chip which is a tenth of the the size of the Menlow platform. Assuming a battery of 30 watt/hours, the new Tegra chips can play back 720p video for 30 hours continuously.
The chip will be released at the Computex Show later today. No prices have been given yet. µ

You are predicting battery life for a device with no display, storage, haptic feedback or illumination.

Usually the CPU is not the only energy cost.
well the cpu along with gpu and display are most power hungry so even if u say the display uses same power has cpu/gpu that 15 hours and u can put that down to 12 hourse for other things
Mike Magee Reported for quite some time on theULTIE,Oh,My; that nvidia was thinking of going into CPU market, well here it is. It does 1080P for 10 Hours, too.

Its New Fangled "System On Chip", Yet Which system does it Play, Mike?

Devices will be in Low $200 field & Never Underestimate Nvidia. Nor Ultie.Especially,Ultie. Ahhhh,Ultie Ezine Grabber,Nvidia, Atom Grabber.
