<p>Samsung Electronics, a world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, today announced at its Samsung Tech Day 2019 two silicon products specifically tailored for future mobile devices that will make intensive use of video and artificial intelligence (AI) applications as well as 5G communications.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Both the Exynos 990 premium mobile processor and ultra-fast next-generation 5G Exynos Modem 5123 harness the most advanced 7-nanometer (nm) process technology using extreme ultra-violet (EUV) to provide unprecedented performance and accelerated product development options for mobile manufacturers.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“Milestones in technological advancements are imminent all around us. Mobile 5G technology is opening new avenues for communication and connection, while AI is poised to become an everyday tool for people worldwide,” noted Inyup Kang, president of System LSI Business at Samsung Electronics. “Samsung’s Exynos 990 and Exynos Modem 5123 are perfectly adapted for high-volume 5G and AI applications, and are designed to help the world’s most ambitious enterprises, large and small, achieve their goals of bringing new capabilities to their markets .”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>New levels of mobile gaming and other graphics-intensive operations are enabled by the Exynos 990’s inclusion of an embedded Arm Mali-G77 GPU, the first premium GPU based on the new Valhall architecture, which improves graphic performance or power efficiency by up to 20 percent. This comes in addition to an overall 20-percent performance boost from an extremely powerful and flexible tri-cluster CPU structure that consists of two powerful custom cores, two high-performance Cortex-A76 cores and four power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Exynos 990 also makes on-device AI practical and useful, with a top-class dual-core neural processing unit (NPU) and improved digital signal processor (DSP) that can perform over ten-trillion operations (TOPs) per second.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The NPU enables localized AI in a smartphone or other mobile platform, allowing data to be processed on-device, rather than going through a network and a server, for added efficiency and security. This can also help enhance AI features such as facial recognition and scene detection for richer mobile experiences.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Next-generation mobile connectivity needs are addressed by the 5G Exynos Modem 5123, one of the first 5G modem chips manufactured using a 7nm EUV process. It supports virtually all networks, from 5G’s sub-6GHz and mmWave spectrums to 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, HSPA and 4G LTE, with outstanding downlink speed across the board.  In 5G, with up to 8-carrier aggregation (8CA), the modem delivers a maximum downlink speed of up to 5.1-gigabits per second (Gbps) in sub-6-gigahertz (GHz) and 7.35Gbps in mmWave, or up to 3.0Gbps in 4G networks by supporting higher-order 1024 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM).</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Exynos 990 complements these modem speeds with a very wide memory bandwidth that supports LPDDR5 data rates of up to 5,500 megabits per second (Mb/s). The processor also features a 120Hz refresh-rate display driver, which makes games come alive by reducing screen tearing and enabling smoother animations even on devices with multiple displays, such as foldable phones. Also on board is an advanced image signal processor (ISP) that supports up to six individual image sensors with concurrent processing of three; this enables pro-grade photography, with resolution up to 108-megapixels.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Exynos 990 and Exynos Modem 5123 are expected to begin mass production by the end of this year.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deep learning algorithms are a core element of artificial intelligence (AI) as they are the processes by which a computer is able to think and learn like a human being does. A Neural Processing Unit (NPU) is a processor that is optimized for deep learning algorithm computation, designed to efficiently process thousands of these computations simultaneously.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung Electronics last month announced its goal to strengthen its leadership in the global system semiconductor industry by 2030 through expanding its proprietary NPU technology development. The company recently delivered an update to this goal at the conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), one of the top academic conferences in computer vision fields.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This update is the company’s development of its On-Device AI lightweight algorithm, introduced at CVPR with a paper titled “Learning to Quantize Deep Networks by Optimizing Quantization Intervals With Task Loss”. On-Device AI technologies directly compute and process data from within the device itself. Over 4 times lighter and 8 times faster than existing algorithms, Samsung’s latest algorithm solution is dramatically improved from previous solutions and has been evaluated to be key to solving potential issues for low-power, high-speed computations.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong>Streamlining the Deep Learning Process</strong></span></h3>
<p>Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) has announced that they have successfully developed On-Device AI lightweight technology that performs computations 8 times faster than the existing 32-bit deep learning data for servers. By adjusting the data into groups of under 4 bits while maintaining accurate data recognition, this method of deep learning algorithm processing is simultaneously much faster and much more energy efficient than existing solutions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7884" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="771" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main1.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main1-529x408.jpg 529w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main1-768x592.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s new On-Device AI processing technology determines the intervals of the significant data that influence overall deep learning performance through ‘learning’. This ‘Quantization<sup><span>1</span></sup><span> </span>Interval Learning (QIL)’ retains data accuracy by re-organizing the data to be presented in bits smaller than their existing size. SAIT ran experiments that successfully demonstrated how the quantization of an in-server deep learning algorithm in 32 bit intervals provided higher accuracy than other existing solutions when computed into levels of less than 4 bits.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When the data of a deep learning computation is presented in bit groups lower than 4 bits, computations of ‘and’ and ‘or’ are allowed, on top of the simpler arithmetic calculations of addition and multiplication. This means that the computation results using the QIL process can achieve the same results as existing processes can while using 1/40 to 1/120 fewer transistors<sup><span>2</span></sup>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>As this system therefore requires less hardware and less electricity, it can be mounted directly in-device at the place where the data for an image or fingerprint sensor is being obtained, ahead of transmitting the processed data on to the necessary end points.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong>The Future of AI Processing and Deep Learning</strong></span></h3>
<p>This technology will help develop Samsung’s system semiconductor capacity as well as strengthening one of the core technologies of the AI era – On-Device AI processing. Differing from AI services that use cloud servers, On-Device AI technologies directly compute data all from within the device itself.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7885" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="1315" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main2.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main2-310x408.jpg 310w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main2-768x1010.jpg 768w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/OnDevice-AI_main2-779x1024.jpg 779w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>On-Device AI technology can reduce the cost of cloud construction for AI operations since it operates on its own and provides quick and stable performance for use cases such as virtual reality and autonomous driving. Furthermore, On-Device AI technology can save personal biometric information used for device authentication, such as fingerprint, iris and face scans, onto mobile devices safely.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“Ultimately, in the future we will live in a world where all devices and sensor-based technologies are powered by AI,” noted Chang-Kyu Choi, Vice President and head of Computer Vision Lab of SAIT. “Samsung’s On-Device AI technologies are lower-power, higher-speed solutions for deep learning that will pave the way to this future. They are set to expand the memory, processor and sensor market, as well as other next-generation system semiconductor markets.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A core feature of On-Device AI technology is its ability to compute large amounts of data at a high speed without consuming excessive amounts of electricity. Samsung’s first solution to this end was the Exynos 9 (9820), introduced last year, which featured a proprietary Samsung NPU inside the mobile System on Chip (SoC). This product allows mobile devices to perform AI computations independent of any external cloud server.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Many companies are turning their attention to On-Device AI technology. Samsung Electronics plans to enhance and extend its AI technology leadership by applying this algorithm not only to mobile SoC, but also to memory and sensor solutions in the near future.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the era of social media, in which sharing photos and videos has nearly replaced texting and talking, the smartphone camera has emerged as one of the most important features for smartphone users.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For the <a href="https://www.samsung.com/my/smartphones/galaxy-s10/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Galaxy S10</a> line, Samsung brought new, advanced hardware and software-based technologies to the camera, including cutting-edge, AI-powered features. In order to learn more about the phones’ pro-grade camera system – which features an Ultra Wide lens, Super Steady video recording, and a built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) – Samsung Newsroom sat down with Samsung Electronics’ Mobile Communications Division’s camera developers and product planner.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>The Power of the Ultra Wide Lens</strong></span></h3>
<p>The secret to taking incredible photos with the Galaxy S10 line is the Ultra Wide lens. The addition of the Ultra Wide lens was a major moment for Samsung, and represents one of the biggest changes to the Galaxy series in generations. Now, users can capture every detail of an epic landscape, or fit the entire family into one group shot without having to move back.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“Users expect more than just improved image quality with a new device. They want a camera that makes it easier to take amazing photos,” explained product planner Sunyong Kim. “The Ultra Wide lens features a 123-degree field of view, just like the human eye, so you can easily capture the moment just as you see it.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_6970" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-6970 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_2_FF.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_2_FF.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_2_FF-725x408.jpg 725w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_2_FF-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Image captured using the Ultra Wide lens on the Galaxy S10+. This feature is also available on the Galaxy S10 and S10e.</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>With the Ultra Wide lens, users can easily take dynamic pictures using the camera’s Live Focus function and Panorama mode. “Live Focus has been available on previous Samsung devices with the Telephoto and Wide-angle lenses, but for the Galaxy S10 line, we brought it to the Ultra Wide lens as well,” noted Sugon Baek. “What’s more, Panorama mode offers more vertical scope than previous models did, and greatly reduces the need to move the camera from left to right in order to capture the full shot.”</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_6971" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-6971 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="284" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_3.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_3-859x244.jpg 859w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_3-768x218.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /><p class="wp-caption-text">A panorama shot on the Galaxy S10+. This feature is also available on the Galaxy S10 and S10e.</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>Shake-Free Video Quality</strong></span></h3>
<p>Another new innovation that’s built into the Galaxy S10 line is the camera’s Super Steady video-recording feature, which offers users enhanced video stabilization.<sup>2</sup></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Super Steady works by using VDIS (Video Digital Image Stabilization) technology. It predicts user movements before filming starts, and once the camera is running, it calculates the adjustment range to minimize shakiness in videos.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“In the past, achieving optimum video stabilization meant sacrifices for the camera’s angle of view,” noted Wonseok Song. “A conventional wide-angle camera couldn’t solve the problem. But thanks to the Ultra Wide lens, the S10 is able to support a natural viewing angle while also offering stability and quality.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Given that the adjustment capability of the Super Steady technology is best for capturing bigger movements, Song has a tip for users filming in different conditions: “For scenes that feature less action in low light, use the camera’s normal mode. For brighter scenes that feature more movement, Super Steady is best.”</p>

<h5 style="text-align: center;">Video footage3 shot on the Galaxy S9 (left) and Galaxy S10+ (right). This feature is only supported when filming with the Full HD Ultra Wide lens.</h5>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>A Camera That’s Smart</strong></span></h3>
<p>The Galaxy S10 doesn’t just have the most advanced camera system on a Galaxy phone, it also has the smartest. In a first for Galaxy <a href="https://www.samsung.com/my/smartphones/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">smartphones</a>, the Galaxy S10 includes a next-generation NPU that automatically optimizes pictures in up to 30 different categories.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“We added 10 additional categories to optimize common photos, including ‘Dog,’ ‘Drink,’ and ‘Shoe,’” explained Seoyoung Lee. ‘Dog’ mode, she added, optimizes users’ pictures by focusing on fine details, such as strands of fur, whereas categories like ‘Shoe’ and ‘Clothing’ focus on objects’ colors, since most pictures of these objects are taken without people’s faces in the frame. “We also added ‘Drink’ category because we noticed the growing trend of people sharing pictures of their cocktails on social media.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6972" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_5.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="375" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_5.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_5-859x322.jpg 859w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/S10-Camera-Interview_main_5-768x288.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Galaxy S10 line’s camera<span> also provides suggestions of ways to potentially improve photos through its Shot Suggestion function. Based on the Galaxy S10 line’s machine learning capabilities, Shot Suggestion references a database of over 100 million users’ pictures to offer helpful tips on improving overall composition, positioning and proportions for photos of various subjects, including people, animals and vehicles. “The AI-based suggestions have been developed not just to prioritize putting the subject at the center of a photo,” said Lee. “That way, no matter how you want to set up your shot, the Galaxy S10 will help you do it in the most striking way possible.”</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>Seeing the Whole Picture</strong></span></h3>
<p><span>In developing the Galaxy S10 line’s camera, the team focused on engineering technologies that add real value to the camera experience, rather than simply increasing the number of lenses and features available.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>“The camera is for more than documenting and recording,” explained Kim. “It is now the means through which we communicate.”</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>From the Ultra Wide lens, to Super Steady, to the NPU – and to other features, like Instagram mode, new filters, enhanced Bixby Vision, and easy shifting between lenses – the Galaxy S10 helps users do more with their camera than they ever could before. For all of those users who say a great camera is the top feature they’re looking for in a smartphone, Samsung has planted the flag.</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6211" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_6.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="450" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_6.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_6-859x387.jpg 859w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_6-768x346.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Exynos 9820 is also built to transform those special moments into spectacular videos. As recording a video in high-resolution can occupy a large space within a limited storage capacity, a processor must compress the video with a video codec in order to store and transfer it efficiently. The advanced Multi-Format Codec (MFC) in the Exynos 9820 processor can encode and compress 8K video into a smaller file size thanks to its 10-bit HEVC codec, which delivers highly efficient video compression with 10-bit color support. This means users need not worry about running out of storage space – even when recording videos in high resolution. Furthermore, the 10-bit HEVC codec can generate 1,024 different tones for each primary color, which translates into 1.07 billion color combinations.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6206" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_7.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="450" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_7.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_7-859x387.jpg 859w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_7-768x346.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The advanced display subsystem is built to present high quality multimedia content on an HDR display. The HDR display reproduces lifelike colors with a high level of accuracy. Notably, the Exynos 9820 supports HDR10+, a new open standard for HDR video which employs dynamic tone mapping allowing scenes to be optimized individually. With this powerful display subsystem, the Exynos 9820 can support a 4K UHD display on a mobile device, offering mesmerizing multimedia experiences.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6207" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_8.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="450" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_8.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_8-859x387.jpg 859w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/my/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exynos-9820-indepth_main_8-768x346.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now these advanced benefits allow people to run daily errands and perform personal tasks using their mobile device alone and they must be accompanied by strong security. The Exynos 9820 features a physically unclonable function (PUF), also known as a digital fingerprint, to manage personal data in perfect isolation, making for more reliable security. PUF generates an unclonable key for data encryption by using the unique physical characteristics of each chip. While the PUF creates a unique digital fingerprint, the security subsystem is a secure key manager that supports other security protocols, such as key generation, storage and derivation.</p>
