The reference design from the ARM is a Cortex A75 + A55 CPU design based on DynamIQ with a CCI-550 interconnect, a set of Mali-D51 display processing unit with Mali-G52 (up to quad-core) and video processing unit Mali-V52 Mobile platform products, can be used for smart TVs, high-end phones, and tablets.
The Mali-G31 went even further, the equivalent of an improved version of the Mali G51 MP2 that included a 20% reduction in area, a 20% performance increase, and a 12% improvement in UI performance, aiming to replace the older Mali-400 series.
ARM reference design is with the Cortex A55 CPU, for low-end products.
It should be noted that the Mali G52 / G31 is still the third generation of the ARM in the core architecture, that is, Bifrost, and the same source with the Mali G71, complete support for Vulkan, OpenGL ES 3.2.
In addition, the ARM also announced the Mali-D51 display processor and the Mali-V52 video processor, all of which are core ARM cores provided by outsiders but are voluntarily chosen. For example, V52, supports 4K 60FPS air decoding, then the V61 has 2 times the decoding performance improvement and reduced by 1/3 of the area.
