Automotive Solution CoCs

ARM® Cortex®-A9 Single Core Processors, 2D Engine SEERIS™, 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 GPU, four VideoCapture Units and three Display Controllers Including APIX2®

Designed for cost sensitive markets the ARM® Cortex®-A9 Single Core Processor SoCs offer low power consumption on highly integrated single chip architectures. The MB86R1x Family combines a high-performance CPU with four video inputs and up to three display outputs, enabling high-speed image processing of video data I/O from these interfaces.

The combination of Socionext’s 2D Engine SEERIS™ and the in-house developed 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 Engine, means highly flexible and powerful graphics processing is possible. Tailored for embedded use, SEERIS™ allows the combination of graphics, such as videos, pictures, icons or 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 graphics, to be rendered by the GPU. This particular combination of graphics processing can be adapted for different applications.

The essential key feature of MB86R12 is its Inova Semiconductors’ high-speed APIX2® (Automotive/Advanced Pixel Link) GBit/s interface. This point-to-point connectivity transmits uncompressed and resolution independent pixel data over long distances for cameras and displays. The APIX® technology consists of a downstream link and an optional upstream link. Please refer to the Graphic Display Controller (GDC) family supporting the APIX receiver for remote displays units.

Multiple performance and package options are available.

ARM® Cortex®-A9 Dual Core Processors, 2D Engine SEERIS™, 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 GPU, six Video Capture Units and three Display Controller

The ARM® Cortex®-A9 Dual Core Processors SoCs are designed for mid range high performance embedded applications. The MB86R2x Family combines the high-performance MPCore™ with six video inputs and up to three display outputs, enabling the high-speed image processing of video data I/O from these interfaces.

The combination of Socionext’s 2D Engine SEERIS™ and the PowerVR™ SGX 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 allows highly flexible powerful graphics processing. Tailored for embedded use SEERIS™ allows a combination of graphics such as videos, pictures, icons or 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 graphics to be rendered by the GPU. This particular combination of graphics processing can be adapted to different applications. The warping-on-the-fly feature of SEERIS™ is designed for Head-up displays which require images to be corrected immediately and reduces the overall required system performance.

A significant increase in memory bus performance and memory interfaces is supported by x64 DDR3/3L bus width. Enhanced scalability was achieved due to identical pin and package compatibility. Please refer to the Graphic Display Controller (GDC) product line. The MB86R91BGL-GSE1 used as a communication and video bridge, is designed to connect directly to the three display outputs of the MB86R2x. The essential key feature of MB86R91 is its integrated Inova Semiconductors’ high-speed APIX2® (Automotive/Advanced Pixel Link) GBit/s transmitter and receiver interfaces.

SC1810x – ARM® Core Based Processors

The SC1810 features state-of-the-art functions and performance for in-vehicle graphics display applications such as digital clusters, central HMI and surround-view-systems.

In addition to its high resolution graphics capability with improved 3-D image processing performance which is five times more than that of the company’s previous products, the SoC is also capable of handling 6 channels Full HD video inputs and 3 channels of Full HD display outputs, enabling variety of input and output controls.

The SoC realizes "Integrated HMI (Human Machine Interface) system" which manages various information from inside and outside the car and controls multiple displays, with higher definition and image quality.

Furthermore, the SC1810 is equipped with a proprietary "Vision Processor Unit (VPU)", which is compliant with the computer vision API OpenVX, developed by the standardization organization Khronos Group.

The SC1810 VPU includes the world's first OpenVX compliant hardware accelerator, as well as programmable data parallel accelerator, enabling advanced image recognition and other advanced functions at high speed and low power consumption.

ARM® Cortex®-A5 Quad Core Processors, 2D Engine, 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 GPU, Multi-format Digital Decoder and Encoder

The MB8AL203x is a highly integrated HD Multi-format digital decoder and encoder designed to meet the needs of tomorrow’s hybrid set-top-boxes, home networking solutions and automotive systems. It features CI+ and embedded CAS for advanced security.

The high-performance Quad ARM® Cortex®-A5 MPCore™ CPU, 2D graphics engine and PowerVR™ SGX 3D OpenGL® ES 2.0 are matched to one another for harmonized system architecture. The chip is designed to fulfill the latest advanced security specifications.

The chip supports up to 1080p HD encode/decode. This high performance multi-media processing allows decoding of various formats including the latest compression standard HEVC (H.265) and output of two streams in parallel in HD resolution. One of the essential key features is MPEG layer 1/2, MP3, HE-AAC and Dolby Digital audio decoding which are fully programmable and easy to extend.
