Google Tensor G5 leak details key changes | Infinium-tech

A new report from Android authority Description of the upcoming Pixel 10 series custom tensor G5 chipset. The new report confirmed the previous claims that the G5 will be designed by Google and will be fabbed by TSMC instead of Samsung and we get a lot of details on the components inside the upcoming chip.

The Tensor G5 will be fab on the 3Nm-class node of TSMC and will use Google Arm Cortex CPU core. The big difference on the G5 is that Google will select an option for a imagination technologies GPU, ie IMG DXT, which replaces Arm Mali-G715 MP7 from Tensor G4.

Other notable changes are perfectly the custom image signal processor (ISP), which will change the partially custom designs of its predecessors, depending on the modified Samsung ISP modified with Google-designed blocks. Since switching on tenser chips, Google has not completely used the custom ISP in its pixel phone, so this change should be a large for camera performance.

Google is also expected to use custom memory controller, system-level cash and power module.

Somewhere else, Google will be away from its custom “bigwave” AV1 video codec and Samsung’s MFC (multi -format codec) and will rely on the wave677DV of chips and media instead supports encoding and decoding in AV1, VP9, ​​HEVC and H.264 formats.

Tensor G5 provides third-party USB, PCIE and i3C components as well as third-party interfaces for DSI (display), display, flash storage and memory (LPDDR5X).
