Analysis Of A15 Bionic Chip
Fastest chip For Smartphones
Being a great admirer of the Apple company's creativity I always end up googling about its products, the thought behind making these cool gadgets, though never thought of purchasing any. :P
A couple of days back, Apple launched iPhone 13 and as always, it goes beyond imagination by launching A15 bionic chip. A chip that claims to be the fastest chip in a smartphone. Let’s see, what it has:
I. 5 nano-meter technology
- Nano-meter, as we know one billionth of a meter which signifies the length of the transistor gate [the smaller the gate the more processing power that can be packed into a given space.]
- For creating this small unit, one requires extremely expensive equipment and now you got a little idea, why Apple phones are expensive. 😉
[Note:- AMD, Qualcomm, Intel also uses the 5nm process]
II. 15 billion transistors
- Transistor plays a very important role in processing and storing data on chips. It is a core circuit element.
- Last year, iPhone 12 had 11.8 billion transistors on the A14 chip.
III. 6-core CPU processors [2-high performance core and 4-high efficiency core]
- Processor- executes every command and performs billions of calculations per second. The more power in the processor, the more stuff you can do with your device and with pace.
- Core- an element of the processor that implements and executes tasks. Higher core-count processor way better for the software.
- The high-efficiency core is for graphics-intensive tasks and Apple claims that iphone13 is 30% faster graphics than the competition, ideal for any mobile game.
[Note:- iPhone 13 will have 4 GPU cores and the iPhone 13 pro will have 5]
IV. 16-core neural engine
- With the help of a neural engine, Apple implements neural networks and machine learning which can perform 15.8 trillion operations per second.
- It will be the fastest in image processing and in ML computations.
- ML model has been trained by 20 million photos
That’s it.
All above-mentioned feature becomes secondary as the primary thing for the legit Apple customer is ‘The Charger’. 😁
