ARM Mali graphics processors
ARM documentation set for the ARM Mali family of graphics processing units (GPUs), including Mali-55 and Mali-200 graphics processors.
The ARM Mali family of graphics processors support the Khronos OpenVG and OpenGL ES graphics software standards to provide 2D and 3D graphics acceleration:
- The ARM Mali-55 GPU performs fragment processing in hardware and vertex processing in software. It is suitable for a wide range of user interface applications that require graphics acceleration. It provides OpenGL ES 1.1 and OpenVG 1.0 support.
- The ARM Mali-200 GPU and ARM Mali-400 GPU perform fragment processing and vertex processing in hardware. They are suitable for a wide range of user interface applications and console-quality gaming applications that require graphics acceleration. They provide OpenGL ES 2.0 and OpenVG 1.1 support.
- The Mali GPU Developer Tools help you to develop and analyze OpenGL ES graphics applications on your computer and on the Mali GPU target platform. They provide a means for you to visualize and debug your graphics applications before the Mali GPU hardware is available.
