Subject: SCOOP -- more detailed leaked HiSilicon 16FF+ IC Compiler II data
Enclosed are 8 slides from the Synopsys IC Compiler II DAC'16 lunch. It
appears to be a short talk by Huwaei (HiSilicon) engineers about how they
designed their Kirin 955 processor in TSMC 16FF+ quad ARM Cortex A72's and
quad ARM Cortex A53's, at 2.5Ghz/1.8Ghz.

From: [ John Cooley of DeepChip.com ]
Here's 15 more slides detailing the HiSilicon Kirin 955 tapeout as initially
earlier described in ESNUG 568 #2. Enjoy!
