From the deck:
-32bit RISC Instructions
-64bit GP registers
-64bit operands
-64bit pointers
- TwoBit 13y agoGiven that 64 bit ARM instruction set is not an extension of 32 bit ARM, it seems to me that the iPhone A7 chip must include a chip which can implement both instruction sets at the same time.
