2016 smart TV mainstream chip inventory

With the acceleration of the intelligentization of television, intelligent hardware is the television chip becoming the second influential element of television LCD panels. In simple terms, people are paying attention to "is it a 4K screen" or "import screen"? At the same time, people are increasingly concerned about "how about memory" and "support HDR?" and other issues. The performance of the chip has gradually become a choice for consumers. Key factor.

Speaking of chips, a little under the door knows Qualcomm Xiaolong chips. Mobile phone manufacturers like Xiaomi, Sony, and Samsung all use Qualcomm chips. In contrast, TV chips do not seem to be so popular, mainly because of the intelligence of TVs. The request for change is a matter of recent years. However, with the market demand, it is an indisputable fact that smart TV chips have gradually become the “center of gravity” of mainstream chip manufacturers. Xiao Bian combined with the new TV released in 2016 and found that the smart TV chips are mostly independent R&D or other manufacturers, and the vast majority are MStar (Sunstar Semiconductor).


MStar (Starstar Semiconductor) was established in 2002 and is headquartered in Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan. Once it was threatened by the acquisition of MTK MediaTek mobile phone chips, after the joint efforts, it occupied more than 75% of the TV box set-top box market, which is a well-deserved overlord in the TV field. Xiao Bian summed up two new 2016 TV chips, the latest MStar6A938 and midrange MSD6A828, to find out together.

MStar6A938:


Using ARM's latest CPU Cortex-A72 quad-core architecture, the performance is up to 86% higher than 6A928. GPU is equipped with ARM's latest Mali T820, 4K 2K, games, interactive UI, up to 60FPS actually measured, and DDR4 memory Data transmission bit width 96bit, 2.4Ghz frequency, the total bandwidth of 28.8G.


On the picture quality, we specially developed the 臻Color Engine Pro, debounce function, noise solution function, advanced color processing, and HDR10 high dynamic range technical support.

Dolby, DTS and many other well-known third-party audio technologies are integrated into the sound quality.

It supports global mainstream 4K encoding formats HEVC, VP9, ​​H264, etc., and integrates MStar's exclusive patented Ultra-VDEC to provide super-standard decoding capabilities.

MSD6A828:


Based on the Android 5.0 operating system, a 64-bit quad-core processor based on the ARM Cortex-A53 architecture and a Mali 450 MP4 quad-core GPU graphics chip are used.

Support 4K hard decoding such as H265, VP9 and other encoding formats, especially supports H.265 4K2K@60Hz 10bit ultra high definition decoding, taking all 4K sources.

It is equipped with Embed DTMB/DVB-C, USB3.0/USB2.0/HDMI 2.0 interface.

The MStar6A938 chip was released in March this year, and the MSD6A828 chip is not at the end of the year. It shows that the TV chip has changed rapidly. The high performance of the Morningstar TV chip is obvious to all. The latest 938 has already made its debut in 2016. In the following year, 938 will create the "myth" of TV chips like the 928 in 2015.
