Marvell Extends its Printing Leadership by Delivering the World's Fastest and Most Highly Integrated 64-bit Quad Core System-on-Chip for the Enterprise Printer/MFP and Growing 3D Markets

Marvell's 64-bit quad-core 88PA6270 in 28nm process sets a new performance standard with over 220 ppm PDL rendering, advanced connectivity, industry-leading low power, and a 3D GPU for stunning display capabilities

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 18, 2015 — (PRNewswire) —   Marvell (NASDAQ: MRVL) -- a worldwide leader in providing complete silicon solutions from mobile communications to storage, Internet of Things (IoT), cloud infrastructure, digital entertainment, in-home content delivery and  Kinoma® software enabling the "Smart Life and Smart Lifestyle"-- today announced the industry's most advanced printer system-on-chip (SoC), the Marvell® 88PA6270. This 28nm performance-driven SoC integrates a quad-core ARM® Cortex-A53 (64-bit) processor running at 1.2GHz, Marvell's industry-leading 32-bit DDR3/4 memory controller, dual-channel configurable scan and print pipelines, advanced high-speed expansion options, and a high-performance Vivante® 2D/3D GPU, setting a new standard with over 220 pages per minute (ppm) page description language (PDL) rendering.

Marvell's 64-bit quad-core 88PA6270 system-on-chip (SoC) for the enterprise printer/multi-function printer (MFP) and growing 3D markets.

The 88PA6270 is designed to power the industry's fastest and highest quality enterprise-class multi-function printers (MFPs) and copiers and integrates ink, laser, and LED technologies. In the past, to achieve this level of performance these products have required a separate PC-class CPU; the 88PA6270 is designed to enable OEMs to adopt a common architecture across their entire product line. The 88PA6270 also advances a new class of 3D printers with the imaging horsepower to provide high-performance object rendering and slicing, and includes the cloud and mobile connectivity required by today's mobile users.

"The 88PA6270 design platform is the new flagship product in Marvell's printer SoC family and we believe that it will establish new standards for the entire industry," said Mark Montierth, Vice President and General Manager, Marvell Printer and Customer Solutions Business Unit. "This solution reflects our passion to innovate and to collaborate with top global printer manufacturers to advance the industry. Marvell's investment in advanced integration in 28nm process enables an extremely low-cost bill of material while providing extensive connectivity options. The 88PA6270 offers unprecedented performance and feature integration to allow our customers to quickly develop their industry-leading solutions."

The 88PA6270 has received strong acceptance and has begun sampling to lead OEMs in U.S., Japan and Korea.

With Marvell's complete SDK and partnership with Global Graphics Software to provide access to the industry's highest performing rendering engines, OEMs can greatly expedite their development and greatly shorten their time to introduction. The SDK seamlessly integrates Marvell's breakthrough JavaScript Kinoma software.

Martin Bailey, CTO at Global Graphics Software, said, "Our partnership with Marvell has been hugely productive and offers printer vendors unprecedented commercial opportunity for reducing their bill of materials on the one hand and extending the range and speed of devices they can drive on the other. Our Harlequin PDL rendering software is now the fastest available across PCL, PDF, PostScript® and XPS, even in a very small footprint, and is renowned for its rendering quality. So when you combine Marvell's high performance SoC with our software, you've got the best of both worlds."

A new standard for performance in the printer industry:
