Myriad 1

The Myriad 1 family of vision accelerators was introduced in 2009 and have undergone a number of enhancements along the way, each released under a new model and building on its predecessors. The Myriad 1 family is largely based on the SABRE test chip they've developed the prior year. All the models have the same basic features:

• Nona-core processor
  • Eight SHAVE v2.0 cores
  • 1 SPARC LEON3 managing core
• 180 MHz
• TSMC's 65 nm process
• Up to 20 GFLOPS
• 1 MiB of shared memory (8x 128 KiB)

Models: (most of the differences are in the video capabilities of the chip)

• MA1100, advanced real-time video editing accelerator for smartphones
  • MA1101, Added Android-OS support to the MS1100
    • MA1102, Added high-quality image/audio effects, Dolby, DTS
• MA1110, added support fr 720p 30fps video recording and playback, real-time video editing, inline video, and 12-megapixel captures
• MA1133, video streams accelerator for auto-stereoscopic screens for smartphones
