"The design of ARM’s DynamIQ is made up of eight cores per cluster, and each of these clusters can have their own unique set of cores. This means the cores in each cluster can be from different ARM Cortex-A families in different configurations. The new design allows for each of these cores to be controlled independently for voltage and frequency, as well as sleep states."
