ARMs Mali-400 MP GPU is now the first and only multicore GPU to pass the rigorous conformance tests specified by The Khronos Group. The Mali-400 GPU has achieved Khronos conformance for all of the three major graphics APIs required by ARM Partners: OpenVG, OpenGL ES 1.1 and OpenGL ES 2.0. Conformance to the Khronos standards brings accredited Mali GPUs to multiple markets – from cellular handsets and personal navigation devices to digital TV, set-top box and digital picture frames.

LG Electronics will use the ARM11™ MPCore™ multicore processor to provide flexible and cost effective processing in next generation DTVs and will enable LG Electronics to target a range of platforms with the same architecture simply by implementing single or multiple SMP cores. Using the ARM Mali™-200 and Mali-400 MP graphics processors will open the path to true 1080p resolutions, affording consumers a home cinema experience that includes high-definition graphics, and vastly improving the browsing experience on DTV user interfaces. Mali GPU's deliver 2D and 3D graphics providing 4x and 16x full scene anti-aliasing (FSAA) without any noticeable drop in performance. Mali provides content developers with the state-of-the-art programmable features in OpenGL ES 2.0 and supports 2D scalable vector graphics through OpenVG for improved text, navigation, UI and web-browsing experiences.
