ARM Cortex-A53
The ARM Cortex-A53 is one of the first two central processing units implementing the ARMv8-A 64-bit instruction set designed by ARM Holdings ’ Cambridge design centre, along with the Cortex-A57. The Cortex-A53 is a two-wide in-order superscalar processor, capable of dual-issuing some instructions.1 It was announced October 30, 20122 and is marketed by ARM as either a stand-alone, more energy-efficient alternative to the more powerful Cortex-A57 microarchitecture, or to be used alongside a more powerful microarchitecture in a big.LITTLE configuration. It is available as an IP core to licensees, like other ARM intellectual property and processor designs.
