Intel Atom D525 vs Apple A6 vs HiSilicon Kirin 9000W

Intel Atom D525

► remove from comparison

The Intel Atom D525 is a dual core processor that is intended for nettops, but also used in netbooks (like the Asus Eee PC 1215N). It consists out of two Atom cores clocked at 1.8 GHz and due to HyperThreading, the D525 is able to process four threads at a time. The D525 misses Speedstep and is therefore running at 1.8 GHz all the time (and using a lot more power than other Atoms without load).

In the processor package, the Atom D525 has an integrated DDR2/DDR3 memory controller and the GMA 3150 called graphics card.

The performance of the D525 can be on a level of slow clocked single core CPUs like the Intel SU2700 or AMD K125 if both cores are used. In single threaded applications, the performance is clearly worse and only on the level of a 1.8 GHz Atom CPU.

Apple A6

► remove from comparison

The Apple A6 is a dual-core SoC found in the iPhone 5 with ARM compatible CPU cores. The A6 was developed by Apple and supports the extended ARMv7s instruction set. The clock rate of the CPU is between 800 to 1200 MHz depending on the CPU load. The integrated GPU is a PowerVR SGX543MP3 at 266 MHz.

HiSilicon Kirin 9000W

► remove from comparison  Kirin 9000W

The HiSilicon Kirin 9000W is an SoC that can be used in smartphones and tablets based on Android and was first installed in the Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2.

Huawei does not reveal any information about the SoC. The little information that is available comes from benchmarks and system analysis tools. The CPU consists of three clusters with a total of 12 cores. The power-saving cluster has four ARM Cortex-A510 cores, each operating at up to 1,530 MHz, while six other cores use unspecified cores from HiSilicon (0x0D42) and clock at up to 2,150 MHz. The third cluster contains two HiSilicon cores (0x0D02), each with a maximum clock speed of 2,487 MHz. The performance cores could possibly be based on the TaiShan V120 architecture (as in the Kirin 9000S).

The single-core performance is correspondingly mixed, but the multi-core performance is at the level of a high-end SoC from 2022 due to the numerous cores.

A Maleoon 910 by HiSilicon is integrated as the graphics unit, similar to the 9000S (where it was clocked with up to 750MHz).

Nothing concrete is known about the manufacturing process or the architecture. The SoC will probably be manufactured in 7 nm at SMIC.
