Toshiba Launches ARM® Cortex®-A9 Based Application Processors with Enhanced Sound and Image Data-Mining and Security Functions
The “TZ2100 group” are high performance application processors supporting enhanced sound and image data-mining, communications and security functions. Sample shipments will start from mid-December, with mass production scheduled to start in June, 2015.
Recent advances in big data are making it easier to sift through huge volumes of data and to develop services that provide users with greater value and convenience. These advances require higher performance application processors that support secure communication and provide timely processing of text, sound and images. “TZ2100 group” devices can operate at a maximum frequency at 600MHz, a rate supporting high speed processing. They are ideal for a wide range of products such as the embedded devices that will realize the Internet of Things (IoT), handheld devices, and industrial equipment.
Toshiba will also launch development starter kits for the “TZ2100 group” from December on, comprising a reference board and device driver. These will support a simple prototype development and evaluation environment for diverse applications.
