There are two companies that provide process nodes to chipset makers – Samsung and TSMC. With every iteration of the manufacturing process, the SoCs carry more transistors and are capable of doing more tasks simultaneously. But this also means more heat inside the fuselage. In this regard, TSMC’s processes consume less power. These are the main reasons why Samsung has decided to make a new chipset from the scratch. Anyway, before that happens, the South Korean company has no idea to pause production of its flagship Exynos chips. The latest leaks prove the Exynos 2300 is on the road, and it will use the company’s own 3nm process node.
We reported that Samsung was working on the next-gen Exynos SoC. The latter has a model number S5E9935. Now, we know its internal codename.
Samsung’s 3nm Process
Roland Quandt revealed that Samsung’s next flagship Exynos chipset is internally known as “Quadra.” As a reference, the current Exynos 2200’s codename is Pamir. All three models in the Samsung Galaxy S22 series have got it. But this doesn’t mean the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S23 will get it too.
