"Cortex-A 73" is a CPU with the highest frequency of 2.8 GHz designed to demonstrate high performance continuously, achieving 30% higher performance than conventional products. In terms of power consumption, the numerical value has improved by 30% compared to conventional products.

In order to correspond to a thin smartphone, the size itself has also become smaller, the size per core is 0.65 square millimeters,ARMv8 architectureThen it is the smallest. Targets include mid-range to high-end smartphones, large-screen mobile terminals, digital televisions, home network equipment, set-top boxes, etc.

One graphic chip "Mali G71" has the same process rule as the previous generation "Mali-T 880" · When compared in the same environment, "20% improvement in power efficiency" "shader core doubles from 16 to 32" Density reduces the required area to 40% "and" 20% band improvement "has been realized, performance is 50% better than Mali-T 880.


Both chips are planned to start production at the end of 2016 at ARM, and it is estimated that the actual appearance of chip mounted products will be in the first half of 2017.
