With the widespread development of smartphones, users’ understanding of smart devices has become increasingly profound. The notion that “user experience does not equal hardware stacking” has taken root in people’s minds. Indeed, a product’s user experience is determined by many factors, including design, configuration, software, network, and battery life… Many aspects influence your experience when … Read more

Cortex-X1: The Bigger Arm Arm targets larger, bigger, and smaller designs with X1 and Cortex-A78 Linley Gwennap (June 1, 2020) To assist mobile users in developing a three-layer CPU cluster, Arm has introduced two new high-end cores: the larger Cortex-A78 and the even larger Cortex-X1. The X1 is the first in the more powerful mobile … Read more

Source: Chip Theory Introduction: Nowadays, CPUs or SoCs are basically integrated with multiple CPU cores in a single chip, forming what is commonly referred to as 4-core, 8-core, or more core CPUs or SoC chips. Why adopt this approach? How do multiple CPU cores work together? Is more CPU cores always better? With these questions, … Read more
