Allwinner A133

Quad core tablet application processor

Overview

Alwinner A133 is a highly-integrated application processor designed for mainstream tablet applications. It integrates quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A53 CPU and Imagination PowerVR GE8300 GPU to ensure rapid response and smooth running for daily applications, such as online video, web browsing, and 3D gaming.

Alwinner A133 supports the DRAM controller interface (LPDDR2/DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR3/DDR4/LPDDR4, and maximum capacity up to 4 GB), eMMC, NAND, and SPI NAND flash. These rich memory interfaces enable customers to implement flexible configuration based on different requirements for tablet solutions. It also provides rich peripheral interfaces, such as MIPI-DSI/RGB/LVDS panel interface, MIPI- CSI camera interface, USB, UART, TWI, I2S, GPADC, etc.

Highlights

Powerful Operation Capacity

Allwinner A133 integrates quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A53 CPU up to 1.7 GHz, which has more powerful performance to ensure rapid response of daily application than A35 CPU. It adopts the CoolFlex low-power design architecture and dynamic power consumption management technology to enable excellent energy efficiency ratio. The integrated Imagination PowerVR GE8300 GPU can easily meet the computing requirements of various mainstream graphics. The GPU API supports OpenGL ES 3.2/Vulkan 1.3 /OpenCL 1.2 and meets the certification requirements of the latest Android GMS.

Powerful Multimedia Capacity

Allwinner A133 supports mainstream video decoding such as H.265/VP9/H.264 (H.265/H.264 maximum performance up to 4K@30fps), H.264 video encoding up to 1080p@60fps, display output up to FHD 1920 x 1200@60fps, and Allwinner SmartColor 2.0 display enhancement technology to provide excellent video experience for users. Analog audio interfaces support 2 ADC, 2 DAC, stereo headphone, and digital audio interfaces support I2S, DMIC, OWA, which meet the requirements of mainstream audio recognition solutions.

Built-in 13M ISP

Allwinner A133 supports front and rear MIPI CSI cameras, and one built-in 13M ISP which can support mainstream camera module in the market while meeting the photography requirements of the medium-low tablet.
