Succession

Neoverse V3 (Poseidon) is the successor to Neoverse V1 (Zeus), a high-performance ARM microarchitecture designed by ARM Holdings for the server market.

This microarchitecture is designed as a synthesizable IP core and is sold to other semiconductor companies to be implemented in their own chips.

History[edit]

Arm's server roadmap.

Poseidon was first announced by Drew Henry, Arm’s SVP and GM of Infrastructure Business Unit, at his TechCon 2018 keynote.

Release Dates[edit]

Poseidon is expected to show up in products around 2023.

See also: Neoverse


Process Technology[edit]

Poseidon specifically designed takes advantage of the power and area advantages of the 5 nm process.

Architecture[edit]

The codename Poseidon was first used for the generation succeeding Zeus, now V1, and targeted for 2021 on a 5 nm node.

With codename Poseidon a successor for Neoverse V1 (Zeus) was first publicly mentioned on TechCon 2018.

Actual introduction (used by third party chip designers in their products) was given in form
of a rough target date of 2021. Its initial realization process is said to be 5 nm by TSMC.

Neoverse V3[edit]

Neoverse V3 (codename "Poseidon") was teased by Arm alongside the V2 and E2 announcements.

It is targeted for systems including DDR5, PCIe Gen 6, and CXL 3.0

Key changes from Neoverse V1 (Zeus)[edit]

This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

Neoverse V2[edit]

Neoverse V2 (codename "Demeter") is derived from the ARM Cortex-X3 and implements the ARMv9.0-A instruction set.

It was officially announced by Arm on September 14, 2022.

Key changes from Neoverse V1[edit]

  • ARMv9.0-A instruction set (from ARMv8.4-A)
  • 4 nm process (from 5 nm)
  • BTB capacity: 12K entries
  • TAGE predictor: 8-table

  • L2 cache: 1024-2048 KB per core
  • CMN-700 mesh interconnect
Up to 256 cores per die
Up to 512 MB SLC
Up to 4 TB/s bandwidth

Automobile solution[edit]

  • Neoverse V3AE (Poseidon-AE), Neoverse VN (Poseidon-VN) [Auto]
  • Neoverse CSS N3 (Pioneer), Neoverse CSS V3 (Voyager)

Models[edit]

Amazon (AWS) • Google • NVIDIA
