Whenever Apple releases a new device – everyone and their   brother/sister has to get involved.Dr. Wreck is no exception and has been working hard with the  gentlemen/women over at <a href="http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone-3G-S/817/2" target="_blank">ifixit</a> to  get the skinny on the new device. Without further ado, here we go!<a href="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/3Gs_explode.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/3Gs_explode.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>Explosion - courtesy of ifixitThose  Apple Engineer’s really know how to pack a PCB. They’ve managed  to fit  almost everything onto the “top” of the main logic board. The  3Gs’ PCB  makes the 3G’s PCB look sparse (the apostrophes were probably a  little  bit confusing there).<a href="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/logicboardPCB.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/logicboardPCB.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> Let’s  take a minute here to talk about the  new Applications Processor Core.  Apple has chosen to go from the ARM 11  Samsung S3C6400 to the ARM A8  Samsung S5PC100 with this device.<a href="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Logic5.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Logic5-1024x572.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>iPhone 3Gs Block Diagram - In ProgressThis  is the single largest difference between the 3G and the 3Gs.  Firstly  the manufacturing process has been chopped from 90nm to 65nm.  Pipeline  depth has been boosted to 13 – stage from 8. More importantly  the clock  speed of this newer processor rolls in at 600MHz – opposed to  the  412MHz core of the old – obsolete <img src="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />  3G. Samsung has also doubled the quantity  of L1 cache from 16 to 32KB.None of this even takes the new PowerVR   graphics core into consideration. Apple is clearly thinking along the   lines of a gaming device for this puppy. The SGX is fully programmable –   like the graphics card on your PC or mac. Expect some sweet gaming   action in the near future. @ 200MHz  the SGX can pop 7M  triangles/second and render 250M pixels/sec. That’s  roughly 7 times the  performance of the old, “obsolete” MBX. It’s kind of like comparing your old 486 to  a Pentium. <a href="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Logic11.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.phonewreck.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Logic11.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>Let’s take a minute here to talk about  the  new Applications Processor Core.
