Specifications
The Cortex-A57 processor is a high-performance processor that implements the Armv8-A architecture, which can be paired with the Cortex-A53 processor in a big.LITTLE configuration for mobile applications.
The Cortex-A57 processor cluster has one to four cores, each with their L1 instruction and data caches, together with a single shared L2 unified cache.
