Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., a world leader in
advanced semiconductor technology, today announced the Exynos 2100
through its first virtual event, Exynos On 2021 (www.youtube.com/samsung).
The new mobile processor is the company’s first premium 5G-integrated
mobile processor built on the most advanced 5-nanometer (nm) extreme
ultra-violet (EUV) process node. The Exynos 2100 is the chipset powering
Samsung’s new S21 lineup of smartphones.

“Our Exynos team has been committed to creating premium mobile computing
experiences by bringing innovations to processors that are at the heart
of today’s smart devices,” said Inyup Kang, President of System LSI
Business at Samsung Electronics. “Today we are delighted to introduce
the Exynos 2100, our most advanced mobile processor yet. Armed with
powerful processing technologies and an advanced 5G modem on a
power-efficient 5nm process node, Exynos 2100 will set a new standard
for tomorrow’s flagship mobile devices.”
“At Samsung Electronics, we are dedicated to providing innovative
technologies and services with our flagship devices to deliver the
ultimate mobile experience to our customers,” said Kyeongjun Kim,
Executive Vice President and head of Mobile R&D Office at Mobile
Communications Business, Samsung Electronics. “With powerful processing,
fast 5G connectivity, and intelligent AI-acceleration, the Exynos 2100
offers the utmost performance that meets the stringent quality standards
and requirements for our next generation smartphone.”
“The evolution of technologies such as 5G, advanced graphics and machine
learning have been critical in enabling new mobile experiences,” said
Paul Williamson, Vice President and General Manager, Client Line of
Business at Arm. “Arm and Samsung have collaborated closely to
incorporate Arm’s powerful next-generation compute and graphics
platform, at the heart of the Samsung Exynos 2100. As a result of our
partnership, we are able to maximize performance and make these
experiences a reality in next-generation mobile devices while delivering
exceptional battery life.”
The chip’s computation and graphic processing performance have been
improved and refined to surpass the power user’s performance
expectations. As Samsung’s first 5G-integrated flagship mobile
processor, the Exynos 2100 is built on an advanced 5nm EUV process
technology that allows up to 20-percent lower power consumption or
10-percent higher overall performance than the 7nm predecessor. For
further enhancement, the chip offers improved cache memory utilization
and a stronger scheduler. The octa-core CPU comes in an improved
tri-cluster structure made up of a single powerful Arm® Cortex®-X1 core
that runs at up to 2.9GHz, three high-performing Cortex-A78 cores and
four power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores delivering more than 30-percent
enhancement in multi-core performance than the predecessor.

The Arm Mali™-G78, which supports the latest APIs such as Vulkan and
OpenCL, improves graphic performance by more than 40-percent for
visually stunning and seamless graphics, enabling the most immersive
on-screen mobile experiences yet, including gaming and AR/VR or MR(Mixed
Reality). The Exynos 2100 also integrates advanced multi-IP governor
(AMIGO) technology, which overlooks and optimizes power usages of CPU,
GPU, and other processes, allowing longer use time even with intense
on-screen activities. With such comprehensive efforts to increase energy
efficiency of its products across software and hardware technologies,
Samsung also continues its strive to help minimize the carbon footprint
of tomorrow’s mobile devices.
AI capabilities will also enjoy a significant boost with the Exynos
2100. The newly-designed tri-core NPU has architectural enhancements
such as minimizing unnecessary operations for high effective utilization
and support for feature-map and weight compression. Exynos 2100 can
perform up to 26-trillion-operations-per-second (TOPS) with more than
twice the power efficiency than the previous generation. With on-device
AI processing and support for advanced neural networks, users will be
able to enjoy more interactive and smart features as well as enhanced
computer vision performance in applications such as imaging.
The Exynos 2100’s advanced image signal processor (ISP) supports camera
resolutions of up to 200-megapixels (Mp). It can connect up to six
individual sensors and is able to process four concurrently for richer
multi-camera experiences. With a multi-camera and frame processor (MCFP),
the ISP can combine feeds from multiple cameras to improve zoom
performance, enhance image quality for ultra-wide shots and more. With
AI acceleration, the ISP offers a content-aware feature that quickly and
seamlessly recognizes scenes, faces and objects and optimally adjusts
the camera settings to capture the image with fuller detail.
The Exynos 2100’s integrated 5G modem supports 5G’s sub-6GHz and mmWave
spectrums from 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA and 4G LTE, for strong network
coverage and reliability. The modem delivers a maximum downlink speed of
up to 5.1-gigabits per second (Gbps) in sub-6-gigahertz (GHz) and
7.35Gbps in mmWave, or up to 3.0Gbps in 4G networks with 1024 Quadrature
Amplitude Modulation (QAM) support.
