Snapdragon 820 chip for 600Mbps

20.09.2015

Qualcomm continues to share information about the features of the Snapdragon 820 flagship mobile processor, which will start trial shipments in October.

Today it is known that the named chip contains four 64-bit Kryo computing cores based on the ARMv8 architecture with a clock frequency of up to 2,2 GHz. Graphics are handled by the powerful Adreno 530 integrated controller, which provides support for 4K HEVC video at 60 frames per second via HDMI 2.0.

The processor contains a Spectra ISP image processing module. It claims support for three cameras (front and two rear), as well as the ability to shoot 25-megapixel images at 30 frames per second with zero shutter lag.

The Snapdragon 820 now reportedly includes an X12 LTE cellular modem for fourth-generation mobile networks. Devices based on the new chip will be able to download data at speeds up to 600 Mbps. The speed of sending information from the subscriber will reach 150 Mbps.

It is also noted that the chip will provide support for wireless Wi-Fi standard 802.11ac, as well as WiGig (802.11ad).

According to Qualcomm, at least 30 Snapdragon 820 mobile devices are in the design and development stage.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>
