2D (sprite graphics) GPU IP
High-performance 2D (sprite graphics) GPU IP combining high pixel processing capacity and minimum gate count
Overview
GH310 is a GPU IP that packages the 2D Sprite engine available in the GSHARK-TAKUMI family IPs. This IP accelerates 2D graphics on embedded systems such as digital audio-video devices.
Casting no LSI cost impact with the smallest-in-family footprint (gate count), GH310 helps enrich your displays including GUIs instantly and easily.
Key features
| Pixel performance | 800M pix/sec |
|---|---|
| Texture size | Up to 8192 x 8192 pixels |
| Color format | RGB, YUV |
| 2D rendering | <2D Sprite engine> Scaling, rotation, transformation, BitBLT, line/dot/rectangle drawing, blending, transparent color |
| Other functions | Copy engine (fast rectangle-fill rendering, format conversion) |
Key features
2D sprite engine – Fast and advanced
The 2D functions such as image scaling, rotation, and blending enrich the expression of your display applications, such as GUI menu designs and animations. Hardware rendering of high-load graphics frees up the CPU from the high load, enabling high-performance graphics rendering in embedded systems.
Footprint & power consumption – Small and low

Tape-out Risk in the Age of Edge AI: The Case for GPU IP
A full SoC tape-out at 5nm approaches $400M in fully loaded, non-recurring engineering and mask costs. At 3nm, estimates push past $600M. Every IP block on that die is a commitment to a set of assumptions about what the silicon will need to do. In AI, those assumptions have a shorter shelf life than they used to.

What Does a GPU Have to Do With Automotive Security?
The automotive industry is undergoing the most significant transformation since the advent of electronics in cars. Vehicles are becoming software-defined, connected, AI-driven, and continuously updated. This evolution brings extraordinary new capability – but it also brings greater levels of cybersecurity and functional-safety risks.
How Alternate Geometry Processing Enables Better Multi-Core GPU Scaling
Scaling GPU performance across multiple cores sounds simple in theory: add more cores, get more performance. In practice, it’s one of the toughest challenges in graphics architecture. While some workloads scale well thanks to their independent nature, some workloads, especially geometry processing, introduce order dependencies that make linear performance scaling a tricky problem to solve for every GPU architecture in the industry.
