Abstract :
TOSHIBA has developed a mobile application processor for multimedia mobile applications in 40 nm with a H.264 full high-definition (full-HD) video engine and a video/audio multiprocessor for various CODECs and image processing. The application processor has 25 power domains to achieve coarse-grain power gating for adjusting to the required performance of wide range of multimedia applications. Furthermore, the application processor has Stacked Chip SoC (SCS) DRAM I/F to achieve high memory bandwidth with low power consumption.
