(iTers News) – Imagination Technologies has started to ship PowerVR Rogue GPUs in mass volume to support a range of 32- and 64-bit mobile CPU platforms targeting a range of applications from mobile devices to tablets.

PowerVR Rogue GPU drivers are optimized to run on all 32- and 64-bit CPU architectures, including IA, ARM, and Imagination’s own MIPS architecture, and provide exceptionally high performance and ultra-efficient scalability. The PowerVR Rogue drivers are shipping on 64-bit platforms from multiple vendors. For example, the latest 64-bit PowerVR drivers from Imagination are shipping with the 64-bit Intel Atom processor Z3480 (formerly “Merrifield”) for smartphones and tablets.

PowerVR Rogue GPU drivers address the technical requirements of next-generation 32- and 64-bit operating systems, including Linux, Windows, Android and many others while providing unmatched system stability for applications and developer tools.

Tony King-Smith, EVP marketing, Imagination said, “Our advanced PowerVR Rogue GPUs are shipping broadly across a range of 32-and 64-bit applications. As 64-bit computing becomes more and more relevant in mobile, Imagination is leading the way and accelerating the 64-bit mobile revolution by providing a combination of high-performance, low-power PowerVR GPU IP and high-quality drivers that work with any CPU architecture, therefore offering our partners the flexibility of targeting any 64-bit or 32-bit CPU architecture or operating system.”

Imagination offers a comprehensive roadmap of high-performance, low power PowerVR GPU IP that is designed to efficiently integrate within any 32-bit or 64-bit computing environment, offering leading-edge API support, performance, power and area efficiency and superior stability that help developers create ultra-realistic, next-generation applications.

All PowerVR Rogue graphics processors, from the recently launched Series6XT and Series6XE families to the Series6 generation, are 64-bit ready GPUs and integrate a highly flexible Memory Management Unit (MMU).

The 32- and 64-bit capable Driver Development Kit (DDK) for PowerVR Rogue GPUs is available now.
