New Arm Cortex-A77 CPU continues path towards compute performance leadershiparm Blogs - Stefan Rosinger, ArmMay. 27, 2019 |
Following the great success of last year’s Arm Cortex-A76 CPU, we are excited to launch the third generation DynamIQ ‘big’ core Arm Cortex-A77 CPU. It is the second in the family of high-performance, highly efficient CPU products built on the Cortex-A76 design template, continuing our path towards compute performance leadership. Our CPU roadmap from August 2018 showed unmatched year-over-year performance gains and, with 20 percent more single-thread performance over Cortex-A76, Cortex-A77 provides a significant performance boost for next generation devices.
Cortex-A77 is built with the next generation of smartphones, laptops and other mobile devices in mind. It stands ready to take advantage of new and emerging opportunities that will fundamentally improve the user experience on devices, such as the 5G rollout beginning this year, the growth of augmented reality (AR) and a number of advanced machine learning (ML) use cases.
