LG Proprietary Smartphone Processor

30.10.2014

LG Electronics introduced the first proprietary processor designed for mobile devices. The processor is called Nuclun and is based on the ARM big.LITTLE architecture. The production of new items has already begun.

The presented processor belongs to the category of application processors, i.e. used to launch the OS and applications. The processor has two crystals, each of which includes 4 cores, i.e. a total of 8 cores.

The first chip has ARM Cortex-A15 cores operating at 1,5 GHz. This chip is used to solve more complex problems. The second chip uses ARM Cortex-A7 cores operating at 1,2 GHz. This chip is used to solve tasks that are less demanding on computing resources. It is reported that the crystals can be activated alternately, depending on the complexity of the task, that is, all 8 cores cannot be used simultaneously.

Nuclun supports LTE-Advanced Category 6 technology, which provides the highest mobile data rate of 225 Mbps, according to the LG specification.

The first device equipped with Nuclun will be the LG G3 Screen smartphone. The following key features of this device are given: IPS display with a size of 5,9 inches and Full HD resolution, 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal memory (there is support for microSD), a main 13-megapixel camera with optical stabilization, as well as a front 2,1 -MP camera, 3000mAh battery, Android 4.4 KitKat OS, support for LTE-A Cat 6.

The smartphone has dimensions of 157,8x81,8x9,5 mm and a weight of 182 g.

In the future, Nuclun chips are planned to be used in high-end LG smartphones.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Global warming asymmetry 07.10.2020

New research shows that stronger nighttime warming is more common worldwide than stronger daytime warming. Scientists at the University of Exeter studied warming from 1983 to 2017 and found a difference in average annual temperature of more than 0,25°C between daytime and nighttime warming over more than half of the land surface.

Days warmed faster in some places and nights warmed faster in others, but the total area of disproportionate warming at night was twice that.

The "warming asymmetry" was mainly due to changes in cloud levels. Increased cloud cover cools the surface during the day and retains heat at night, resulting in even more warming at night.

"Warming asymmetries could have major implications for the natural world," said lead author Dr Daniel Cox of the Institute for Environment and Sustainability at Exeter's Penryn campus in Cornwall.

Stronger nighttime warming is associated with a wetter climate, and this has been shown to have important implications for plant growth and how species such as insects and mammals interact.

Greater diurnal warming is associated with drier conditions coupled with higher levels of overall warming, which increases species vulnerability to heat stress and dehydration.

"Species that are active only at night or during the day will be especially affected," the scientists say.
