No. Look at what you're doing - look carefully at the above. "CPU implementer" - 0x41. That's A. For ARM Ltd. ARM Ltd implemented this CPU. Did ARM Ltd really implement OMAP4470 ? I think TI would be very upset if that were to be the case. So no, OMAP4470 is _NOT_ a CPU. It is a SoC. The CPU inside the SoC is a collection of ARM Ltd Cortex A9 _CPUs_. See? Please, learn what a CPU is as opposed to a SoC.
