MediaTek Expands IoT Platform With Genio 700 For Industrial And Smart Home Products

Ahead of CES 2023, MediaTek today announced the latest chipset in the Genio platform for IoT devices, the octa-core Genio 700 designed for smart home, smart retail, and industrial IoT products. The new chipset will be shown as part of a demo at MediaTek’s booth at CES 2023.

With a focus on power efficiency, the MediaTek Genio 700 is an N6 (6nm) IoT chipset with two ARM A78 cores running at 2.2GHz and six ARM A55 cores at 2.0GHz while providing a 4.0 TOPs AI accelerator. It has support for FHD60 + 4K60 display, as well as an ISP for better images.

“When we launched the Genio family of IoT products last year, we designed the platform with the scalability and development support brands need, paving the way for opportunities to continue to expand,” said Richard Lu, Vice President of MediaTek IoT Business Unit. “With a focus on industrial and smart home products, the Genio 700 is a perfect natural addition to the line to ensure we provide the greatest support possible to our customers.”

The Genio 700 SDK allows designers to customize products using Yocto Linux, Ubuntu, and Android. With this support, customers can easily develop their own products with a minimal amount of effort, regardless of the type of application.

Additional features of the MediaTek Genio 700 include:

• Supports high-speed interfaces, including PCIe 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen1 and MIPI-CSI interface for camera
• Dual Display supports FHD60+4K60 with support for AV1, VP9, ​​H.265 and H.264 (video decode)
• Support for industrial grade design and wide temp with 10 years long life
  ARM SystemReady certification is for providing a basic and easy way to integrate the platform
• ARM PSA certification for added security.

The Genio 700 will be commercially available starting Q2 2023.
