Discussion ARM Cortex/Neoverse IP + SoCs (no custom cores) Discussion

Talking again but with something in mind: A78 should be the next small core. Those are extremely efficient and powerful at the same time.

Wait. For things like thermometers?? Why not throw in a hundred Neoverse-V3's and call it a day?

For a thermometer or other type of simple sensor equipment anything beyond a microcontroller is surplus to need.

Even an A5x/A5xx/Cx Nano core would be overkill.

The point is to draw as little power as possible leaving it for the sensor itself to do its job.

I know. That was my exact point. Hence the sarcastic mention of a hundred Neoverse V3's.

Oh ye I was really replying to the person you were.

Well, the in-order cores are no longer useful for the current phones and the apps, which relies more on OoO cores.
