  Actual hard TDP numbers are hard to find for this SoC, but reading
enough marketing material would suggest 3-4 W TDP.

  There is a slide from a ieee conference at 
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6768/samsung-details-exynos-5-octa-architecture-power-at-isscc-13
that would suggest something between 4 and 6 W TDP.

  Keep in mind that this is the first big.LITTLE SoC. It'll be interesting
to see what the 5430 (20nm), and 74xx (20nm) will do.

  The system (Odroid-XU) is delivered with a 5V 4A power supply, and
supposedly a 5V 2A supply will not work. This is something I have not
tested.

  Checked, and I did fill it out correctly. Total cores is 8 for this
SoC, it's big.LITTLE. 4 x Cortex-a7 which can switch to 4 x Cortex-A15.

  So total cores turns out to be 8, with only 4 being active at 
any one time.
