S5P4418
Overview.

High performance Multimedia 32bit Quad core Application Processor

S5P4418: 32bit Quad-Core, High Performance, Advanced 3D Graphics, Full-HD Multimedia Video, ARM® Cortex®-A9 Core

S5P4418 is a system-on-a-chip (SoC) based on the 32-bit RISC processor for tablets and cell-phones. Designed with the 28 nm low power process, features of S5P4418 include:

  • • Cortex-A9 Dual/Quad core CPU
  • • Highest memory bandwidth
  • • Full HD display
  • • 1080p 60 frame video decoding and 1080p 30 frame encoding hardware
  • • 3D graphics hardware
  • • High-speed interfaces such as eMMC4.5 and USB 2.0

S5P4418 uses the Cortex-A9 quad core, which is 50 % overall performance higher than Cortex-A8 core and its speed is1.4GHz. It provides 6.4 GB/s memory bandwidth for heavy traffic operations such as 1080p video encoding and decoding, 3D graphics display and high resolution image signal processing with Full HD display. The application processor supports dynamic virtual address mapping, which helps software engineers to fully utilize the memory resources with ease.
S5P4418 provides the best 3D graphics performance with wide range of APIs, such as OpenGL ES1.1, 2.0.Superior 3D performancefully supports Full HD display.The native dual display, in particular, supports Full HD resolution of a main LCDdisplay and 1080p 60 frame HDTV display throughout HDMI, simultaneously. Separate post processing pipeline enables S5P4418 to make a real display scenario.
