MediaTek announce Helio P10 SoC with 10 core cpu
Helio P10 is a new System-on-Chip (SoC) from MediaTek that is targeted at flagship smartphones with slim form factor. P10 is a high performance and high value SoC that combines a 2GHz octa-core 64-bit Cotex-A53 CPU, a 700MHz dual core 64- bit Mali-T860 GPU. Helio P10 will be available to OEMs from 3Q2015.
“The P series will provide OEM smartphone makers with greater design flexibility to meet consumer demands for slim form-factors, which provide dynamic multimedia experiences,” said Jeffrey Ju, Senior Vice President of MediaTek. “The P10 enables state-of-the-art mobile computing and multimedia features all while balancing performance and battery life.” “We are pleased to see MediaTek’s achievement in producing the world’s leading 28HPC+ smartphone chip,” said Dr. BJ Woo, Vice President, Business Development, TSMC. “As an enhanced version of TSMC’s 28HPC process, 28HPC+ promises 15% better speed at fixed power or 50% leakage reduction at the same speed over 28HPC. Through our competitive 28HPC+ technology and process-design collaboration with MediaTek, we believe MediaTek will deliver a series of products which benefit smartphone users across the world.”
Built on 28nm HPC+ process, Helio P10 can same up to 30% power when compared to SoCs manufactured using HPC 28 nm fabrication process. Helio P10 is also the first SoC with TrueBright ISP engine for ultra-sensitive RWWB and supports MiraVisionTM 2.0. Helio P10 supports WorldMode LTE Cat-6 and supports 2×20 carrier aggregation with 300/50Mbps data speed.
Listed below are few multimedia features built into P10.
