What is the difference between ARM cortex-A and cores in snapdragon from Qualcomm?

Nitin Bhaskar

Hi All,

What is the difference between ARM cortex-A and cores in snapdragon from Qualcomm? I know that they say it is compatible with ARMv7/8 ISA.

Regards

    Hello Nitin,

    the differences are performance and power consumption.

    In ARMv7-A era, Qualcomm developed their exclusive core compatible to ARMv7-A as Qualcomm has the architecture license.

    In ARMv8-A era, Qualcomm is currently using the original ARM core but are developing their exclusive core for the next generation.

    Best regards,

    Yasuhiko Koumoto.
