Are there other Power processors that might be better suited for a laptop?
- duskwuff 6y agoSomewhat not by much. NXP has a couple of other QorIQ parts which might fit a laptop application a little better; for instance, the T1040 series (4 cores, 1.5 GHz, 7W TDP) seems like a better fit. IBM's POWER parts are aimed squarely at supercomputing and are completely unsuitable for this use case. But, quite frankly, none of these parts are really intended for mobile use. There hasn't been any real interest in mobile Power hardware since Apple got out of the business nearly 15 years ago -- ARM cores have utterly dominated that market.
