In the last post we learnt about the SoCs. So in this post, we will see the increase in the transistor count in SoC in last five years since 2013.
So here is the list of SoCs with their year of launch and number of transistor that they have.
- Apple A7 (Dual core ARM 64)– 2013 – 1 billion transistors
- Apple A8 (Tri core ARM 64)– 2014 – 2 billion transistors
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 835– 2016 – 3 billion transistors
- Apple A10 Fusion (Quad core ARM 64)– 2016 – 3.3 billion transistors
- Apple A11 (Hexa core ARM 64)– 2017 – 4.3 billion transistors
- Xbox OneX– 2017 – 7 billion transistors
So now you can imagine how fast is the technology growing day by day that the no. of transistor on the SoC has increased from 1 billion to 7 billion in less than 5 year time.
