CES 2011, LAS VEGAS, January 06, 2011 - Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Co., Ltd, a leading developer of fabless semiconductors, today released its new 乐动(中国)29XX generation mobile Internet platform.

Rockchip 55-nm 乐动(中国)29XX solution is a high-performance, low-power processor designed for mobile internet applications. It integrates an ARM® Cortex-A8 CPU includes the NEON SIMD engine to improve software media processing capability. With TSMC advance process, the A8 core can enable up to 1.2GHz. 乐动(中国)29XX also provides FULL HD decoder and encoder processor, hardware accelerated Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1, ultra powerful 3D/2D GPU, high speed internet surfing experience and more, now 乐动(中国)29XX supports Gingerbread (Android2.3).

The 乐动(中国)29XX is the world's first system-on-a-chip (SOC) to support 1080P HD decoding of the VP8 video codec entirely in hardware. VP8 is the codec used in the open WebM video format. To build VP8 decoding the 乐动(中国)29xx graphics accelerators, Rockchip licensed the WebM project's G-Series 1 video decoder IP design.

“Cooperating with WebM has brought the benefit of Rockchip’s years of experience in the audio and video fields,” said Chen Feng, Vice Present of Rockchip. “The successful support of VP8 ma乐动(中国)s China’s semiconductor industry becoming international and Rockchip is devoted to continued support.”

"We're very excited that Rockchip chose our G-Series 1 hardware design to add VP8 support to the 乐动(中国)29XX," said Jani Huoponen, Hardware Product Manager for the WebM project. "Playback of HD content in hardware is very important to the WebM project and we look forward to seeing deployment of devices powered by the 乐动(中国)29xx."
