Specifications
The Arm Mali-T720 GPU was the first high area efficiency graphics processor based on the Mali Midgard graphics architecture. The Mali-T720 GPU balanced performance, quality, energy use, and area savings. With a more simple layout than its predecessors, the silicon area was considerably smaller, and time to market was reduced. Mali-T720 GPU maintained the high quality that is needed for a compelling graphics experience across a number of devices. On this page you will find specifications and performance data for Mali-T720 and if you are developing on this GPU, you can also request support and guidance on our forums below.
Arm Mali-T720 GPU
| Feature | Value | Description |
| Anti-Aliasing |
4x FSAA 8x FSAA |
4x Full Scene Anti-Aliasing (FSAA) with minimal performance drop. |
| API Support |
OpenGL® ES 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, OpenCL™ 1.1, RenderScript |
Full support for next-generation and legacy 2D/3D graphics applications. |
| Bus Interface |
AMBA®4 ACE-LITE |
Compatible with a wide range of bus interconnect and peripheral IP |
| L2 Cache |
Configurable 64kB-256kB |
32kB for MP1 configuration. 64kB-128 kB for MP2 configurations. 128kB-256kB for MP3 or bigger configurations. |
| Memory System | Virtual Memory | Built-in Memory Management Unit (MMU) to support virtual memory. |
| Multi-Core Scaling | 1 to 8 cores | Optimized for high area and energy efficiency to address the mainstream mobile market requirements. |
|
Adaptive Scalable Texture Compression (ASTC) |
Low dynamic range (LDR) and high dynamic range (HDR). Supports both 2D and 3D images | ASTC offers a number of advantages over existing texture compression schemes by improving image quality, reducing memory bandwidth and thus energy use. |
| Transaction Elimination | 16x16 pixel block size | Transaction Elimination spots the identical pixel blocks between two consecutive render targets and performs a partial update to the frame buffer with the changed pixel blocks only, which reduces memory bandwidth and thus energy. |
