Thank you very much!

Are you talking about CPU cache?

[SoFaraway]

Yes, I would like to know something about CPU cache sizes for mobile devices. It will be better if it's detailed information, e.g., the sizes for level 1 and 2 instruction and data cache.

Thank you!

It depends on what chip you are using.

I see..

Can you give me one example of some possible size? Any example will do. I just need to have a rough idea about the possible cache size for mobile devices. I am not really interested about what cache size for what chip.

Thank you!

Yea anywhere from say 64KB to 1MB is a safe bet. But then you need to look at mobile laptop chipsets which are like normal desktop chips. There really is a wide range. Embedded chips are super specialized for whatever you are using them for.
