The Development of Huawei Kirin Chip
Huawei's Kirin chip has a long history. Founded in 2004, it mainly makes some industry-specific chips, mainly supports network and video applications, and has not entered the smart phone market. In 2009, Huawei launched a smart phone equipped with K3 processor to test the water, which is also the first smart phone processor in China.
In the 4G era, Huawei released the first eight nuclear processor Kirin920, which not only has very powerful parameters, but also realizes heterogeneous 8-core size. Small architecture, overall performance comparable to Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 in the same period. In addition, it also directly integrates the BalongV7R2 baseband chip, which can support LTECat.6 and is the first mobile phone chip in the world to support this technology.
