Intel's next Medfield chip is the Atom Z2610, targeting tablets

We've already seen Intel's first Medfield Atom SoC, the Z2460 which was announced at IDF back in October; however, this chip was designed specifically for Smartphones. Details of what should be Intel's second Medfield chip has now come to light and it should be known as the Atom Z2610 and it looks like Intel will be targeting it for tablets.

We've been having a hard time to figure out the difference between the Atom Z2460 and the Z2610, as the two are virtually identical as far as we can tell. Both are 12x12mm chips in a POP (Package-on-Package) chip package with support for single channel 32-bit LPDDR2 memory at 800MHz. The Atom Z2610 should feature the same PowerVR SGX540 graphics with a core clock of 400MHz as the Atom Z2460, with the ability to encode and decode 1080p30 video, so no change here either.
