This year’s Mobile World Congress is said to be a momentous event for ST-Ericsson, the company behind the NovaThor chipset, as they are said to announce their first ever quad-core processor which is believed to clock in at blazing fast 3-gigahertz. Dubbed as the NovaThor eQuad, ST-Ericsson’s upcoming SoC consists of four 28-nanometer Cortex—A9 cores which are put together using FD-SOI MOSFET (Fully Dispersed Silicon on Insulator, Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) technology, enabling to not only be fast but also power efficient. ST-Ericsson's Novathor chips have been powering a lot of Nokia's handsets back in 2011 and have been used by other phone manufacturers like Sony on their first batch of Xperia handsets. ST-Ericsson has announced its latest mobile chipset with quad-core processors and low-power features - the NovaThor L8580. For starters, the NovaThor L8580 features an eQuad processor with four ARM Cortex A9 cores clocked at 2.5GHz, a POWERVR SGX544 GPU, integrated LTE FDD/TDD, HSPA+, TD-SCDMA, and EDGE modem, and the ability to run at a very low power at 0.6V.
