Hello. Can anyone tell me what Exynos is in the ARTIK 710?
<
krzk>
genii: this is not exynos but Nexell
<
genii>
Interesting.
<
krzk>
genii: if you need more details probably you would have to look at DeviceTree sources of their kernel
<
krzk>
from DTS one can get some knowledge about the SoC
<
genii>
krzk: Thanks for the tip!
<
genii>
Seems odd that Samsung is not putting their own SoC in
<
krzk>
genii: yeah... it started with some Tizen mobile phones working with Spreadtrum chipsets... and then the first Artik 710
<
krzk>
I think latest Artiks also abandoned Exynos...
<
genii>
The 1020 appears to have been pulled
<
LiquidAcid>
isn't the artik based on a s5p68xx something?
<
krzk>
LiquidAcid: yes, exactly
<
krzk>
that's the nexell... although name might suggest Samsung
<
LiquidAcid>
krzk, ah, i though everything with the s5p stem is samsung
<
LiquidAcid>
*thought
<
krzk>
LiquidAcid: at the beginning me too :D
<
LiquidAcid>
or is nexell just some samsung subsidiary?
<
krzk>
LiquidAcid: I never figured it out.... my personal impression was that some people quit samsung and started the nexell with their knowledge
<
krzk>
or maybe there is also hidden subsidiary relation...
<
krzk>
but anyway I did not find any data to backup these claims... maybe except that soem parts of the datasheet looked exactly like samsung's....
<
javier__>
krzk: I thought the relationship was that nexell was a fabless SoC vendor and that Samsung made the SoCs for them
<
javier__>
with nexell design. But his is just my guess, I don't really know the real relationship
<
krzk>
javier__: that also makes sense... and then Samsung used these SoCs in its boards? :)
<
javier__>
krzk: well, I just learned that there was an artik board based on this SoC :)
<
genii>
krzk: So the 710 has Nexell, but the 1020 has Exynos?
<
genii>
Something odd seems to be going on at Samsung. The Kirin 620 LeMaker board was pulled recently.
<
genii>
Sorry, Huawei in this case
<
krzk>
genii: I do not know about 1020. The first Artik10 was nded Exynos - Exynos5422. but then they changed the naming

Seems that it's a 5410
<
genii>
..but with Mali
<
krzk>
genii: the datasheet was copied from 5410... but I would not make an assumption about hardware because of that
<
genii>
krzk: Good point :)
<
krzk>
it is a cortex a53, Octa (with all the same A53!)
<
krzk>
which is quite different than previous samsung quad designs (mostly: big + LITTLE)
<
krzk>
genii: You can find also s5p4418 datasheet there... which might be an improved version of Exynos4412
<
krzk>
in the datasheet, one of first pages: "Contact Us: mobilesol.cs@samsung.com"
<
krzk>
but again - I am not sure whether just datasheet was copied or maybe some parts of SoC design...
<
krzk>
because in few places still the name "Exynos 5410" appears...
<
krzk>
but... what is much more nice to all hackers of Galaxy S3 and Odroid U3
<
krzk>
on the friendlyarm page you can find datasheet of Exynos4412 :D
<
krzk>
(I think legally)
<
genii>
They have some pretty extensive documentation there, for sure
<
javier__>
krzk: that's something that surprised me as well, that the manual is public. Also notice the "Powered by Nexell" in the manual first page
<
javier__>
that's why I think is just nexell using samsung foundry services...
<
LiquidAcid>
krzk, looks like they ripped out most of the gfx blocks in that s5p4418
<
LiquidAcid>
there might be some similarities, but it's definitely not a superset of the 4412
