Inkampani yaseChina kanye IHuawei yethule ngokusemthethweni iKirin 970, i-flagship SoC entsha evela kulo mkhiqizi we-smartphone onamandla okwakha okwakhelwe ngaphakathi.
Futhi yize into ejwayeleke kakhulu ukunaka izici ezinjengokumiswa kwe-CPU ne-GPU, uHuawei ukhombisile ekwethulweni kwakhe ukuthi abe nentshisekelo yokuqhakambisa iKirin 970 njenge iprosesa le-computing yeselula i-AI.
IHuawei Kirin 970: iyashesha futhi isebenza kahle
Ipulatifomu yezobunhloli yokufakelwa isebenza ku-unit ye-neural processing unit (NPU) ezinikele, okusho ukuthi, ucezu oluthile lwehadiwe oluthi, uma kuqhathaniswa ne-CPU ye-970, iletha ukusebenza okuphindwe izikhathi ezingama-25 ngokusebenza kahle okuphindwe ka-50. Ngamanye amagama, iKirin 970 NPU iyakwazi ukwenza imisebenzi efanayo yekhompyutha ye-AI kepha ngejubane eliphakeme nangamandla amancane. Isibonelo, esivivinyweni sokuqashelwa kwesithombe, i-Kirin 970 icubungula izithombe ezingama-2.000 20 ngomzuzu, lokhu kucishe kuphindwe izikhathi ezingama-XNUMX kunokuba i-CPU bekufanele ikwenze yodwa.
Ngeke singene emininingwaneni yezobuchwepheshe mayelana nokusebenza kwamaphoyinti entantayo, ama-TFLOP nobunye ubuchwepheshe lapho ngisho neseva ilahleka kepha kubonakala kusobala ukuthi U-Huawei wenze i-qualitative leap ebalulekile ukudala i-SoC entsha okuthi, maqondana nobuhlakani bokufakelwa, iyashesha, nokusebenza okuphezulu futhi isebenza kahle njengoba kudinga amandla amancane.
URichard Yu, oyi-CEO yeHuawei Consumer Business Group, uzwakalise ukwaneliseka kwale nkampani ngokuthi "Njengoba sibheke ikusasa lama-Smartphones, sisemngceleni wenkathi entsha ethokozisayo." Ubuye waveza nokuthi, njengengxenye yaleso siqalo, IKirin 970 ingeyokuqala ochungechungeni lwentuthuko entsha okuzoletha izici ezinamandla ze-AI kumadivayisi wethu futhi kuzithathe ngaphezu komncintiswano.

Eminye imininingwane yeprosesa yaseKirin 970 yembula ukuthi ikhona eyenziwe yi-TSMC isebenzisa inqubo ye-10nm. Ngaphezu kwalokho, iyi- I-processor ye-Octa-core ene-GPU eyishumi nambili, i-ISP embaxambili, nemodemu yesivinini esikhulu seCat 18 LTE. I-CPU iyafana neyeKirin 960, enezinhlamvu ezine ze-ARM Cortex-A73 nama-cores amane we-ARM Cortex-A53, kepha kulokhu ngejubane lewashi le-2,4 GHz ne-1,8 GHz, ngokulandelana. I-Kirin 970 nayo iyi- i-SoC yokuqala yokuhweba ukusebenzisa iMali-G72, i-GPU yakamuva evela ku-ARM. Ngokusho kukaHuawei, ukuqaliswa kwe-G72 kuzokwenza ukuthi iKirin 970 a 20% ngokushesha kuneKirin 960 kepha noma kunjalo, kuzoba yi I-50% isebenza kahle ngokwengeziwe kusimo sokubukwa kwamandla.
Iphinde iqhakambise ukusekelwa kwayo kokufakwa kwevidiyo kwe-4K nokufaka amakhodi (H.265, H.264, nabanye), amandla okuphatha umbala we-10-bit (HDR10), nokuningi. Yini enye, IHuawei ivulela i-chip kubathuthukisi nakubalingani bayo futhi ngalokhu, iKirin 970 isekela iTensorflow / Tensorflow Lite neCaffe / Caffe2.
