XBurst, one trademark of Ingenic Semiconductor, is an innovative 32-bit embedded CPU technology. It features outstanding performance in operating frequency, multimedia processing, power consumption and die size. Compared with other indurstial 32-bit embedded CPU cores, XBurst core has high performance and obvious advanvages. Under the same process technology, XBurst core enhances its computing ability by more than 80%, multimedia processing by 100% or more, while reduces its power consumption by 70% and saves die size by 50%.
XBurst technology includes two parts:
-
One misc RISC/SIMD ISA(instruction set architecture).
XBurst RISC ISA is compatible of one standard RISC ISA and support Linux, WinCE, a large number of third-party softwares and development tools. XBurst SIMD instructions can effectively accelerate video/audio/graphic processing.
With advanced RISC/SIMD ISA and innovative micro-auchitecture, XBurst has below advantages:
- High performance:
With 0.18µm process, XBurst core runs stabley at over 360MHz frequency but other industrial 32-bit CPU cores run at within 200MHz. Under the same process technology, XBurst can improve CPU performance by more than 80%.
- Powerful Multimedia ability
SIMD instruction improves video decoding by 100% and video coding by more than 150%.
- Ultra-low power consumption
Power consumption of XBurst core is 30% of similar products, reducing power consumption by 70%.
- Ultra-small die size:
Area of XBurst core is 50% of similar products, saving silicon area by 50%.
It is the innovative XBurst CPU technology that makes Ingenic multimedia processors have fast computing ability, powerful multimedia processing, ultra-low power consumption and ultra-low cost, which are distinguished advantages and features different from other embedded processors having serious homogenization issue.
