At COMPUTEX TAIPEI , a trade fair in the computer field held in Taiwan, Arm announced the 'TCS23' product group, the latest version of the Arm architecture IP package and TCS. TCS is Arm's first IP package announced in 2021, designed and optimized to work seamlessly with each processor and product.
In addition to the processor, TCS also includes development tools for the latest version of Android and physical implementation support to accelerate SoC design. As a result, SoC designers can easily combine the latest Arm processors into their devices and quickly bring them to market.
Arm architecture is characterized by power saving, and is widely used as
The premium core 'Cortex-X4' has a 15% improvement in peak performance and a 40% improvement in power efficiency compared to the previous generation 'Cortex-X3'. “Like all Cortex-X CPUs, the Cortex-X4 is designed for ultimate performance,” Arm said. It's also an efficient Cortex-X CPU core.'
The high-performance core 'Cortex-A720' has an improved microarchitecture to demonstrate performance while reducing the power of the entire system, improving power efficiency by 20% compared to the previous generation 'Cortex-A715'. It is explained that In addition, the high-efficiency core Cortex-A520 was developed with a focus on providing the highest power efficiency with the smallest silicon footprint, with power efficiency improving by 22% over the previous generation Cortex-A510. It is said that there is.
In addition, the CPU cluster architecture ' DSU (DynamIQ Shared Unit)-120 ' included in TCS23 achieves scalability from a single core to 14 cores. As a result, device makers can realize devices with a wide range of CPU clusters from entry-level smartphones to flagship smartphones and premium notebook PCs with TCS23.
Arm compares the ``1 + 3 + 4'' configuration with 1 premium core, 3 high-performance cores, and 4 high-efficiency cores in TCS22, and the ``1 + 5 + 2'' configuration in TCS23, respectively, peak performance in general computing claimed to improve by 27%. In addition, the browsing experience is said to improve performance by 33% with the same configuration, and improve performance by 64% when combined with software optimized for TCS23.
At TCS23, Arm also announced the flagship GPU ' Immortalis-G720 ' based on
TCS23 is optimized to improve workload latency and bandwidth reduction, delivering an average 30% reduction in DRAM bandwidth per frame compared to the previous generation TCS22. Arm claimed that the lower bandwidth also saves power consumption, saving an average of 20% in GPU and DRAM power consumption.
