One of the participants in the World Mobile Congress MWC 2017, which these days takes place in Barcelona, was the Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC. As part of the MWC in 2017 presented a mobile processor Helio X30. It is designed for use in premium devices.
MediaTek company has announced the launch of the flagship chip Helio X30. The first smartphones based on Helio X30 will hit the market in the second quarter of 2017. Helio X30 was the first 10 core processor, performed on a 10-nanometer process technology. Its energy efficiency in comparison with a precursor could increase by more than 50% and the efficiency - approximately 35%.
The structure consists of ten Helio X30 cores, divided into three clusters. One cluster consists of two Cortex-A73 cores clocked at 2.5 GHz, the second - of the four Cortex-A53 cores clocked at up to 2.2 GHz, and the third cluster includes four core Cortex-A35 clocked at up to 1.9 GHz. For graphical component responsible PowerVR Series7XT Plus processor with a clock speed of 880 MHz. Also, the new chip is equipped with a built-in LTE-modem WorldMode Cat.10.
Helio X30 processor supports dual cameras with resolutions up to 16 megapixels, as well as the development tools of virtual reality. For processing features built-in visual camera responds processor Vision Processing Unit paired with the signal processing technology, MediaTek Imagiq 2.0
