<Grimler> (nitpicking) Seems an L fell away in channel topic change: "| inux Samsung SoC Exynos |"
<arnd> krzk: do you know when Samsung discontinued the non-phone embedded SoCs? It feels like this was 10 years ago already
<krzk> Grimler: thanks!

<krzk> arnd: no, I don't know. I also have never worked at the silicon division (LSI), so I was just a consumer of the SoC-products.
<krzk> arnd: Still around 2014-2015 Samsung used some of its Exynos chips in IoT products (Artik boards and module), later replaced with Nexell (which itself shares some similarities with Exynos...)
<krzk> arnd: and also since like 1-2 years Samsung made new designs customized for automotive, but indeed except this everything is targeted towards mobile
<arnd> krzk: as far as I can tell, the Exynos line was intended for phones, even though it may have been used elsewhere. There was definitely a break when the s3c line suddenly went from "supported with long term availability" to "we have no idea what this is"
<arnd> I didn't think the Nexell chips were related at all, except for being named similarly
<arnd> or maybe just the kernel code had a different lineage
<arnd> in 2012, it seems to all go 404
<krzk> arnd: if you ask when they were manufactured - then it's the 2009, with the mentioned S5P6450 introduced in 2010. However I do not know what was the long-term availability.
<krzk> but I cannot find there any guarantees on production :/
<krzk> Additionally, even though S3C processors ended up in some industrial designs, still they were always described as "Mobile Processors" and were mostly used in smartphone products. I don't think that Samsung gave ever guaranteed availability.

<arnd> makes sense, so they probably didn't actually make any guarantees back then, it's just that their customers felt they should have gotten some advance warning
