"DynamIQ"Is a new technology that will make major changes in ARM's Cortex-A series and multicore microarchitecture in semiconductor development. DynamIQ is a combination of flexibility and multifunctionality that will redefine multicore experience in a wide range of devices from edge to cloud through a secure common platform.

ARM's "big (high performance) .LITTLE (low power consumption)" combines two or four high-performance cores and two or four low-power cores to create two different You can use an ARM processor. DynamIQ has evolved this big.LITTLE technology, and it is possible to configure like "1 + 3" or "1 + 7" which was impossible so far, and it can provide the optimum configuration according to the usage situation.


With the advent of DynamIQ, "ARM announces that the following new features and benefits will be added to the Cortex-A series in the second half of 2017".

· New processor for machine learning and AI
Designed with DynamIQ technology, the Cortex-A processor can jump up AI performance up to 50 times over the next three to five years, compared to current Cortex-A 73 based systems. Also, because the 10 times faster reaction is obtained with the CPU on the SoC and the specialized accelerator hardware, the performance of the computer can be improved up to about 10 times.


· Increased flexibility of multi-core
With DynamIQ technology, SoC designers can expand to up to 8 cores in a single cluster, allowing each core to have different performance and power characteristics. This advanced capability enables machine learning and rapid response to AI applications, and redesigned memory subsystem speeds up data access and enhances power management.


· Safe automatic operation system
In addition, DynamIQ technology "Advanced driving support system (ADAS) solutionImprove responsiveness, improve safety, build a system conforming to ASIL - D, enable safe operation in case of failure.
