Rockchip RK3566

► remove from comparison  RK3566

The Rockchip RK3566 is an entry-level ARM SoC (system-on-a-chip) introduced in 2020, which is primarily used in AIot devices and e-ink tablets, for example in Lenovo's Paper Smart. The chip is manufactured in 22nm and integrates four ARM Cortex-A55 cores with up to 2 GHz. As a GPU it integrates a ARM Mali-G52 MP2 (2 cores). Furthermore, a video decoder with H.264 and H.265 support is integrated, among other things.

Besides the CPU and graphics chip, the chip also integrates an LPDDR3/LPDDR4x memory controller, but no cellular modem. Das SoC beinhaltet ein Modem für Wi-Fi 5 (a/b/g/n/ac). Furthermore, an AI unit with 1 TOPS is installed.

Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Wear 4100

The Snapdragon Wear 4100 is a platform for smartwatches. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 at up to 1.7 GHz, An Adreno 504 GPU and a 750 MHz DDR3L memory controller. Furthermore, the QCC1110 AON co-processor (ARM Cortex-M0) can be used for always-on functionality. Without the QCC1110, the platform is only called Snapdragon Wear 4100.

According to Qualcomm, the Wear 4100 offers a 85% higher CPU and memory performance and the integrated GPU is 2.5x faster than the older Wear 3100.

the Snapdragon Wear 4100 is manufactured in 12nm, compared to the 28nm produced Wear 3100.

Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD W5 Gen 1

The Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 is a SoC for smartwatches and fitness trackers in the Wear series. It integrates a CPU with four ARM Cortex A53 cores and up to 1.7 GHz, an Adreno 702 GPU with up to 1GHz, a single channel (1x16) LPDDR4 2133 MHz memory controller, Bluetooth 5.3, WLAN 802.11n (2.4 and 5 GHz) and an LTE modem (Rel 13 with Cat1 bis support). The SoC (SW5100) is manufactured using a modern 4nm process. In contrast to the W5 Plus, the W5 does not integrate an additional Always-On-Chip (QCC5100 with a 250 MHz Cortex-M55 CPU).
