Rockchip today announced that it will display their latest RK29xx series solutions and terminal prototypes at CES 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show, and stated that the new generation of solutions has higher frequency and better 3D than the current RK28 series. Graphics acceleration and richer features. According to Rockchip’s announcement, the RK29 solution uses advanced 55nm process technology, built-in mainstream ARM core processor and GPU graphics acceleration chip, can support Open GL2.0 standard, built-in decoding chip can support WebM VP8 video encoding, and Supports the mainstream format of 1080P HD video encoding, dual camera, 720P resolution screen display capabilities are nothing to mention.
Addiction Technology also today revealed the specific performance test scores of the engineering prototypes produced using the RK29 solution. In the Quandrant performance test, this prototype ran out of good results in 1965, which is already in the current single-core 1GHz processor Android smartphones. leading position. From the sub-item, the processor core frequency of the RK29 solution is at least 1 GHz and the scores of I/O performance and 3D performance are not low.
The RK29 solution can be used in tablet PCs, Internet TVs, smart phones, PMPs, etc. These prototypes will be displayed at CES.
Now let's talk about the relationship between Rockchip and the cottage. For ordinary mobile phones, MediaTek's MTK solution is currently the most widely used non-intelligent program. However, in the past two years, in the cottage smart phone program, MediaTek just did not rain. Until now, we have not seen the use of their solutions to market cottage products. At present, domestic cottage smart machines mainly use Huawei's Hass platform and Rockchip's RK28 platform, such as the common high-simulation HTC series Android cottages, WM cottages, and powerful dual-system cottages. The representative is the Android version of the N8 that was listed some time ago.
In the cottage gradually buy intelligent now, the planners are not afraid to give up the field of cottage machines, Qualcomm has announced it will enter the cottage market, recently hot NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core platform has also been reported a large number of cottage manufacturers Orders, although pointing to the cottage dual-core tablet machine, but the use of Tegra 2 processor cottage dual-core mobile phone really appear reasonable.
Judging from the RK29 series program, the price of the whole machine is likely to be controlled within 2,000 yuan, and the performance is equivalent to the existing high-end models of more than 3,000 yuan, which will further accelerate the price of 1GH single-core smart phone sales. The acceleration of the era of dual-core mobile phones.
