Seoul, Jan 18: Samsung Electronics on Tuesday announced its premium mobile processor, the Exynos 2200 – with a powerful AMD RDNA 2 architecture based Samsung Xclipse graphics processing unit (GPU) that will take gaming experience to an all-new level.
With cutting-edge Arm-based CPU cores available in the market and an upgraded neural processing unit (NPU), the company claims Exynos 2200 will enable the ultimate mobile phone gaming experience, as well as enhance the overall experience in social media apps and photography.
Built on the most advanced 4-nanometer (nm) EUV (extreme ultraviolet lithography) process, and combined with cutting-edge mobile, GPU and NPU technology, Samsung has crafted the Exynos 2200 to provide the finest experience for smartphone users.
“With the Xclipse, our new mobile GPU built with RDNA 2 graphics technology from the industry leader AMD, the Exynos 2200 will redefine mobile gaming experience, aided by enhanced graphics and AI performance, said Yongin Park, President of System LSI Business at Samsung Electronics in a statement.
The Xclipse GPU is a one-of-a-kind hybrid graphic processor that is positioned between the console and the mobile graphics processor. The company in a communication claimed, “the Xclipse GPU will bring an end to the old era of mobile gaming and mark the start of an exciting new chapter”.
The GPU which has high-performance AMD RDNA 2 architecture as its backbone inherits advanced graphic features such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing and variable rate shading that were previously only available on PCs, laptops and consoles.
As one of the first processors to incorporate the new Armv9 CPU cores, Samsung’s Exynos 2200 takes advantage of Arm’s Total Compute strategy and key security features, like Memory Tagging Extension (MTE), to deliver the purpose-built compute and specialized processing needed to power future mobile experiences, said Rene Haas, President of IP Products Group (IPG) at Arm.
The Exynos 2200 offers powerful on-device artificial intelligence with an upgraded NPU. It also integrates a fast 3GPP Release 16 5G modem supporting both sub-6GHz and millimetre wave spectrum bands.
Using a technology that utilises both 4G LTE and 5G NR signals, the modem can boost the speed up to 10Gbps.
The mobile processor comes with an Integrated Secure Element (iSE) to store private cryptographic keys.
Its image signal processor architecture has been redesigned to support the latest image sensors for ultra-high resolution of up to 200 megapixels. At 30 frames-per-second, it supports up to 108 MP in single camera mode, and 64+36 MP in dual camera mode.
It can also connect up to seven individual image sensors and drive four concurrently for advanced multi-camera setups.
According to the company, with 8K resolution support, the Exynos 2200’s advanced multi-format codec (MFC) makes videos truly come to life. It decodes videos up to 4K at 240fps or 8K at 60fps and encodes up to 4K at 120fps or 8K at 30fps.
