The custom SoC includes the ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore as its CPU, mounting four little-endian ARM Cortex-A9 processor cores, which is common in modern high performance embedded devices like cell phones and tablets. The PSVita cores have a MIDR value of 0x412FC09A, meaning it is Cortex-A9 r2p10. Indeed there are usage of undocumented CP15 registers.

Each core includes the following features:

  • L1 Instruction Cache of 32 KiB and Data Cache of 32 KiB
  • Media Processing Engine (MPE) that can execute Advanced SIMD instructions (NEONv1) and Vector Floating-Point v3 instructions (VFPv3)

In addition, there is a L2 cache of 2 MiB shared by all cores, while precisely speaking, it's external to the ARM processor core.

Interrupt Controller

As part of the Cortex A9 MPcore, the Vita also implements the Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture. More information on interrupts can be found here.

L2 Cache

PSVita uses the PL310 r3p1-50rel0 L2 cache (Cache ID Register = 0x410000C7) that is mapped to paddr 0x1A002000.
