ARM has announced two Cortex-A series cores that can implement the IP licensor's latest architectural refinement, known as DynamIQ, and provide leading performance for a richer set of ARM's well-known "big-little" multicore configurations.
The Cortex-A75 is ARM's next-generation leading-performance 32/64bit processor core aimed at 16nmm, 10nm and 7nm FinFET implementation and beyond, effectively eclipsing last year's Cortex-A73. The Cortex-A55 is a new mid-range performance 32/64bit processor offering a balance between performance and power efficiency. Cortex-A55 is the latest "little" core intended to complement the Cortex-A75, the latest "big" core.
