16nm ARM Cortex-A57 CPU prepared to hit mass production

ARM and TSMC announced today that the 1st ever Cortex-A57 processor has been taped out and is prepared to hit mass production.

The new chip utilizes TSMC's 16nm FinFET manufacturing process, regardless of the transistors being 20nm. Nevertheless, ARM says the A57 outputs up to three instances the CPU energy of the Cortex-A15 with no an influence on battery life. Nevertheless, if its battery life you're soon after, the A57 ups it by up to five instances if it is operating at the exact same
