Hey Guys,
Some of the people at my college would like the information on the new ARM chips for servers in order 
to help out with the power scaling side. If someone can send me the docs as I am certain that the 
embedded developers here have access to them and it's very hard to find them on the arm website,
hiding somewhere I guess :).

That's because the ARM website is for the design of the ARM core itself. Power
management will almost certainly come from the companies that actually put an
ARM core on a SoC, because it's an SoC function not a CPU function. If you're
looking at the server-class ARM, you'll want to ask AMD about it, because
they're the ones investigating that idea.

I'm not sure why you're asking here for your embedded developers, because if
they're at all competent they already *knew* to go ask AMD.

Thanks Valdis,
I didn't known who the idea was from. Guess I will email AMD later :).
