An audio processor is then attached, switched on and tuned in, usually after a month or so.
The chips will include an 800-megahertz ARM central processor--the same power-sipping design powering many smart phones--with a high-definition video processor, an imaging processor, an audio processor and a tiny, low-power version of the GeForce graphics processors Nvidia pushes for desktop and laptop computers.
Alright, first up we've got the catchily-named BCM20751, which performs the rather ordinary tasks of GPS, Bluetooth, and FM radio management but also throws in an audio processor to offload some work from the phone's primary CPU, which the company says can reduce battery consumption enough to improve playback time by up to 100 percent in some situations.

On a more technical front, we're told the PDK supports the Linux standard SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) to ease in porting and development (Unreal for Linux runs using SDL, for instance), and that developers could even build apps like an audio processor that rely on PDK components but don't show up in the UI at all, or OpenGL-empowered things that aren't necessarily games or in 3D.
