Television systems are entering a new and revolutionary era. Higher resolution video, vastly expanded services, and new AI-powered functions will drive user demand and unit growth. While this is exciting for end-consumers, it also represents a significant challenge for SoC designers. With the added complexity of these features designed into TV systems, engineering teams are searching for the right balance between cost and functionality, while providing an excellent user experience and shortening the time to market.

Novatek, a leading fabless chip design company and longtime partner of Arm, knows this full well from its experience delivering a wide range of display driver ICs and multimedia SoCs. In response to the increased complexity demanded by 4K DTV systems, Novatek recently became the first company to tape out a digital television SoC using Arm’s Artisan physical IP based on the TSMC 22ULP (Ultra Low Power) process node.
