Abstract
Nvidia´s first 64-bit ARM processor, code-named Denver, leverages a host of new technologies like dynamic code optimization (DCO) to enable high-performance mobile computing. Implemented in a 28-nm process, the Denver CPU can attain clock speeds of up to 2.5 GHz. This article outlines the Denver architecture, describes technological innovations, and provides relevant comparisons against competing mobile processors.
