AI
Inspiring intelligence
Enjoy the full measure of artificial intelligence on the go. A powerful neural processing unit (NPU) and digital signal processor (DSP) are built into the Exynos 990 for the next-level of on-device artificial intelligence. The top class dual-core neural processing unit (NPU) and improved digital signal processor (DSP) can perform over ten-trillion operations per second (TOPS).1 This allows smartphone to offer richer mobile experiences with diverse intelligent features including intelligent camera, virtual assistant and extended reality. The Exynos 990 processor designed for AI will take smartphone’s capabilities to the next level.
Camera
Intelligent camera evolved
The pro-grade camera gets upgraded with added intelligence. Machine learning capability of the NPU automatically detects objects in the scene allowing the image signal processor (ISP) to generate and apply specific camera settings tailored to that subject. For instance, when the NPU detects a face in the frame, it enables the ISP to automatically provide the best settings for the lighting condition and the person’s skin tone. In addition, the ISP features advanced algorithms to reduce noise, improve texture and edge artifact, and perform better local tone mapping for ultimate image quality. The Exynos 990 supports up to six individual sensors with ultra-high resolution up to 108Mp and is able to process three sensors concurrently for fuller multi-camera experiences.

5G Solutions
Hyper-fast
Stream and download at hyper-fast speed in 5G. The Exynos 990 processor brings incredibly fast mobile broadband in the palm of your hand when paired with the next generation 5G technology, the Exynos Modem 5123. The modem supports blazingly fast download speed of up to 7.35Gbps in mmWave and 5.1Gbps in sub-6GHz setting with up to 8x carrier aggregation.2 For uncompromised performance in 4G LTE mode, it supports up to 3Gbps of downlink speed and up to 422Mbps of uplink speed.2 The modem also supports E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) which combines LTE and 5G connectivity to maximize mobile downlink speed. Notably, the Exynos Modem 5123 is also built on the most advanced 7nm EUV process with diverse power saving technologies resulting in enhanced battery life in 5G communication.
Computing
New-level performance
Do more with faster computing. The Exynos 990 processor features the 5th generation custom CPU for ultimate computing power required for the complex use cases in the 5G era. The tri-cluster CPU, featuring the 5th generation custom CPU, delivers up to 20% enhanced performance than its predecessor.3 Combined with the Cortex-A76 dual-core and the Cortex-A55 quad-core, the Exynos 990 processor delivers optimal performance and better power efficiency for seamless mobile experiences that lasts. Furthermore, the Exynos 990 supports LPDDR5 memory’s data rates of up to 5,500 megabits per second (Mb/s) for wider memory bandwidth than its predecessor with LPDDR4x.2 It enables a smartphone to efficiently transfer massive amount of data needed for 5G communication, AI applications, graphically demanding games, ultra-high resolutions videos, and more.
