MediaTek announces the first chip for smart TVs that supports up to 8K quality at a frequency of 120 Hz and a 7nm architecture.

Company announced Media Tech A few days ago, we announced the new Dimensity 9000 SoC chip for leading smartphones. Days later, the company announced the first chip for smart televisions, the Pentonic 2000. It is expected that the first televisions containing the new chip will be announced in the coming year 2022.

Prepare Pentonic 2000 chip It is the first chip supported by the 7nm architecture TSMC Designed for smart TVs. The chip will support Versatile Video Coding (VVC) for H.266 content, a new codec with improved compression efficiency, primarily used in live streaming and podcasts. The chip also supports natively supported codecs such as VS3, VP9, ​​and HEVC.

Moreover, the new Pentonic 2000 chip supports up to 8K resolution at a frequency of 120 Hz, and surprisingly, the chip also contains the new Motion Estimation Compensation (MEMC) technology, which is a new technology in phones and smart devices that artificially adds additional frames between the original frames of a clip. The video, as shown in the image attached above.

MediaTek also says that the new chip supports artificial intelligence and UFS 3.1 technology to store data more smoothly. As for communications, the chip will support the Wi-Fi 6E standard, as well as 5G optionally, according to the decision of the TV manufacturer.
