Apple A11 “Bionic chip” SoC

It’s a 64 bit, 6 core processor embedded in iPhone 8, iPhone 8 plus and iPhone X. This is the best mobile SoC that is available in the market till now.

  • CPU- 4.3 billion transistors, 6 cores which has 2 performance corescalled “Mosoon” running at 2.39 GHz and 4 power efficiency corescalled “Mistral”. You can use all six cores simultaneously unlike which was not possible in A10
  • A11 is 25% more powerful than A10 chip10 nm FinFET manufacturing technique is used for the fabrication technology by TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company)
  • GPU– It has Ist time apple designed GPU which is said to be 30% faster than A10’s GPU
  • Neural Engine – A11 has special hardware called “Neural Engine” which is capable of doing 600 billion operations per second and is used for Face ID, Animoji type of machine learning processes
