Apple A15 Bionic
Apple A15 Bionic Specification
The Apple A15 Bionic is a Flagship ARM-based Apple custom design, 64-Bit Mobile Processor(SoC), launched on September 14, 2021. Apple A15 Bionic Specification includes a powerful Hexa-core CPU, built-in 11-nm process technology, balances between 2 high-performance cores called Avalanche running at 3.24 GHz and 4 power-efficient cores called Blizzard running at 2.01 GHz (2x 3.24 GHz – Avalanche, 4x 2.02 GHz – Blizzard).
It contains 15 billion transistors and a 16-core Neural Engine, that can perform 15.8 trillion operations per second (TOPS). It supports 4266 MHz LPDDR4X RAM (dual-channel) up to 8GB. In addition to the Hexa-core CPU, the SoC comes with an integrated Apple Custom 5‑core GPU.
The SoC also comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon™ X60 Modem-RF System (200 MHz bandwidth (sub-6 GHz), 8 carriers (mmWave), 800 MHz bandwidth (mmWave)) and Apple wireless system that supports Wi-Fi 4, Wi-Fi 6, and Wi-Fi 5.
