The key difference between the Snapdragon 888 and earlier released 865 is that the former has integrated its 5G modem directly into the SoC. Users will be able to experience multi-gigabyte of speed with faster uplink and downlink 5G speed. Snapdragon 888 also has a 3rd generation Qualcomm Snapdragon X60 5G Modem-RF System that will support all-day battery life even on 5G network. Using this, developers will be able to write custom operators in just a few lines of Python, which can be compiled for the Hexagon processor and plugged directly into the Qualcomm AI Engine direct framework. The announcement of the open-source compiler for AI accelerators, TVM, was made earlier this year. The company is now working on improving the modularity and the extensibility of the AI Engine to enable developers to create their own Snapdragon accelerated AI solutions. This API is backward compatible, meaning that it will also support the previous 5th generation Qualcomm AI Engine. The Qualcomm AI Engine brings a unified AI API across the whole Snapdragon platform. With this, the developers will get direct access to its different hardware components such as Hexagon 780 processor, Adreno GPU, and Qualcomm Kyro CPU. The company also introduced the Qualcomm AI Engine direct along with the 6th generation Qualcomm AI Engine.

It now includes support for additional models and gives expanded support for Windows 10 AI use cases on Snapdragon 888-powered laptops. Qualcomm’s on-device AI SDK called the Neural Processing SDK, has also been improved.

This sensing hub collects and deciphers data from different cores, such as connectivity data from 5G, Bluetooth and location stream and creates contextual awareness use cases.Īdditionally, Qualcomm is also working with Google and TensorFlow Micro Framework to give developers easier access for optimisation on both Hexagon processors and the AI processor of the Qualcomm Sensing Hub. This extra AI processing power will offload up to 80% of the workload that is usually borne by the Hexagon processor. The Snapdragon 888 processor also introduces the 2nd generation Qualcomm Sensing hub, which has a low power AI processor (less than 1mA) that gives a five-time improvement on the AI performance. Further, the Adreno 680 GPU of the AI engine in the 888 processor offers a 43% AI performance boost and a faster floating-point calculation. The new processor 888 also offers a processing speed of 26 TOPS (Tera Operations per Second), which according to the company is the highest for TOPS performance on mobile, more than the previous best offered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. This memory space is about 16 times larger than its predecessor and offers up to 1000 times faster hand-off time between. As a matter of fact, the performance per watt on the Hexagon 780 processor is three times higher than the previous generation.Īdditionally, the company has also dedicated a large shared memory across each of the accelerators that will help in the efficient movement of data. With the introduction of the new Hexagon 780 processor, Qualcomm removes the distance between the accelerators and combines them to form the fused AI accelerator architecture, as opposed to a separate scalar, vector, and tensor accelerators used for earlier models. Qualcomm describes Snapdragon 888 as its ‘biggest leap in architecture and performance in years’.
