Amlogic Answers the UHD Challenge with Landmark Implementation of ARM Mali-450 MP6 GPU

Business Wire
ARM®, the world’s leading semiconductor IP supplier and Amlogic,
a leading fabless semiconductor company providing advanced
solutions for a wide range of consumer applications, today
announced the launch of a system on chip (SoC) developed to deliver
advanced graphics performance and Ultra High Definition resolutions
to class-leading consumer electronics. Based on a six-core ARM
Mali™-450 MP graphics processing unit (GPU) and a quad-core ARM
Cortex®-A9 central processing unit (CPU), both implemented with ARM
Artisan® Physical IP, the AML8726-M8 boasts the highest number of
cores seen to date in an ARM Mali-450 MP GPU.
The AML8726-M8 SoC will be deployed later next year in high-end
Digital Televisions (DTVs), Set Top Boxes and Smart IP TVs, among
other consumer devices. The innovative six-core GPU implementation
has been specifically designed to supply the graphics performance
needed to bring ultra-high screen resolutions and complex content
to consumers whilst effectively controlling memory bandwidth and
system power consumption.
The ARM Mali-450 MP GPU is an enhanced version of the hugely
successful ARM Mali-400 MP GPU which brings top-of-the range 2D and
3D graphics acceleration to consumer electronics. Linear
performance scaling and a focus on maximizing processing
efficiency, even when rendering at four times Full Scene
Anti-Aliasing (4xFSAA), ensures superior image quality and provides
a perfect solution for 2K and 4K screen resolutions.
“The DTV space continues to drive forward the resolutions and
user experiences in the largest consumer screens,” said Pete
Hutton, executive vice president and general manager, Media
Processing Division, ARM. “Amlogic’s AML8726-M8 is a great
example of how the latest ARM Mali GPU and ARM Cortex processor
technologies are combining to deliver the superior graphics and
processing that is the foundation for the next generation of
consumer devices.”
Thanks to an integrated configurable L2 cache with shared memory
access, multiple levels of power management and a combination of
immediate-mode and tile-based rendering, it is also able to
coherently control memory bandwidth and lower overall system power
consumption. The ARM Mali-450 MP GPU provides double the fill-rate
and geometry throughput of the ARM Mali-400 MP GPU - whilst being a
fast, low-risk route to market thanks to the maturity of the
underlying design and compatibility with the same DDK that is used
by the ARM Mali-400 MP GPU.
