Falkor is an ARM microarchitecture designed by Qualcomm for the server market. Falkor-based microprocessors are manufactured on a 10 nm process and sold under the Centriq brand.

Process Technology

Further information: 10 nm lithography process

Falkor-based chips are manufactured on TSMC's 10 nm process.

Architecture

Falkor is a new architecture designed by Qualcomm from the ground up for the server market. While some of the core architecture ressmbles Qualcomm's mobile cores, the overall system architecture is considerably different to anything Qualcomm has previously designed.
