TSMC provides a comprehensive SoC (System on Chip) process technology portfolio for innovative smart digital TVs (DTV), set-top boxes (STB), and cameras that incorporate state-of-the-art features, such as artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled video and audio quality enhancement, and voice assistants.
Digital Consumer Electronics (DCE) Platform
TSMC provides leading, comprehensive technologies for smart consumer devices with innovative features.
Examples include:
- An integrated CPU/GPU/NPU (Neural Processing Unit, AI accelerator) SoC Human Machine Interface (HMI) that enables large language models (LLM) to use natural language in an AI-search
- AI-enhanced picture quality
- Super resolution scaling to 8K/4K
- 120Hz high frame rate (HFR) for game consoles and cloud gaming
- Wireless video streaming to mirror contents from smartphones, tablet and VR devices
TSMC’s leading 5nm, 7nm/6nm FinFET compact (FFC), 16FFC/12FFC, 22nm ultra-low power (22ULP)/22nm ultra-low leakage (22ULL), and 28nm high performance mobile compact plus (28HPC+) technologies have been widely adopted for 8K/4K DTV, STB, over-the-top (OTT) dongles, action camera, and digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras.
TSMC makes these technologies with enhanced performance, and superior energy efficiency through die-size shrinks and lower power consumption.
