Renesas Technology Europe announced the SuperH family SH7775, an SoC solution designed for high-performance car information systems such as next-generation car navigation systems. The SH7775 incorporates the SuperH family ‘s top-end SH -4A CPU core and is capable of high processing performance of 1GIPS (giga floating-point operations per second) or more. It is a high-performance SoC product that integrates many comprehensive peripheral functions required by car navigation systems.
These include a newly developed graphics engine optimized for map drawing, a 3-D graphics engine for high-level drawing processing, and a GPS baseband processing function. The SH7775 is the third-phase product in Renesas Technology ‘s line up of car navigation SoCs, following on from the current SH7770 and SH7774 and the successor to the Sh7770.
