Samsung today announced the Exynos 2100 through its first virtual event, Exynos On 2021. The new mobile processor is Samsung’s first premium 5G-integrated mobile processor built on the most advanced 5-nanometer (nm) extreme ultra-violet (EUV) process node. With support for up to six cameras and 200 Mp resolution, the processor enables cameras to capture a very high standard of detail and additionally facilitates smoother zooming.
The octa-core CPU comes in an improved tri-cluster structure made up of a single powerful Arm Cortex-X1 core that runs at up to 2.9GHz, three high-performing Cortex-A78 cores and four power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores delivering more than 30-percent enhancement in multi-core performance than the predecessor. The Exynos 2100 empowers new applications such as cloud gaming and delivers download speeds of up to 7.35Gbps.
The Exynos 2100’s integrated 5G modem supports 5G’s sub-6GHz and mmWave spectrums from 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA and 4G LTE, for strong network coverage and reliability. The modem delivers a maximum downlink speed of up to 5.1-gigabits per second (Gbps) in sub-6-gigahertz (GHz) and 7.35Gbps in mmWave, or up to 3.0Gbps in 4G networks with 1024 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) support.
The Exynos 2100 is built on an advanced 5nm EUV process technology that allows up to 20-percent lower power consumption or 10-percent higher overall performance than the 7nm predecessor. The chip offers improved cache memory utilization and a stronger scheduler. The Exynos 2100 also integrates advanced multi-IP governor (AMIGO) technology, which overlooks and optimizes power usages of CPU, GPU, and other processes, allowing longer use time even with intense on-screen activities.
AI capabilities will also enjoy a significant boost with the Exynos 2100. Exynos 2100 can perform up to 26-trillion-operations-per-second (TOPS) with more than twice the power efficiency than the previous generation. The Exynos 2100 delivers ultimate and optimal performance with eight CPUs built on tri-cluster architecture. With a powerful Cortex-X1 CPU, the processor improves single-core performance by up to 19 percent and multi-core performance by up to 33 percent, allowing faster loading and seamless multitasking.. The Exynos 2100 is currently in mass production.
