Apples A8 SoC analyzed: The iPhone 6 chip is a 2-billion-transistor 20nm monster
2014-09-10 16:55:22| Extremetech
Powering both the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is Apple's new A8 SoC. This new chip, which contains around two billion transistors, will be one of the first mass-market components to use TSMC's 20nm process. The A8 SoC will, according to Apple, be about 25% faster than its predecessor in CPU tasks, and 50% faster on the GPU side of things. These are some big performance gains that are made even more impressive by the fact that the A8 is reportedly 50% more power efficient than the A7 -- and, despite almost doubling the transistor count, the die size is somehow 13% smaller. Read on for some detailed analysis of Apple's new A8 SoC.

Apple's slide-to-unlock patent not willfully infringed by Samsung, judge rules
2014-09-10 15:41:30| InfoWorld: Top News
While Samsung Electronics infringed on Apple's slide-to-unlock patent, that infringement was not willful, a U.S. court has ruled. Samsung had asked Judge Lucy Koh of the San Jose division of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California to rule that it did not wilfully infringe on the patent. It did so after a jury in May awarded Apple $119.6 million in damages because Samsung infringed some of Apple's patents. Apple got much less than the $2 billion it had asked for though.
