_Architectural Innovations and Advanced Hardware Acceleration Deliver Enhanced Graphics
Performance and Power Efficiency for Emerging Wearable Applications_

SHANGHAI, Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — VeriSilicon (688521.SH) announced its next-
generation GCNanoOptimaV 2.5D Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) IP, designed to meet
the growing demand for advanced graphics capabilities in wearable devices. Featuring
dedicated hardware acceleration engines and an optimized memory architecture, GCNanoOptimaV
significantly enhances graphics rendering performance and memory efficiency, enabling
richer and more responsive graphical user interfaces (GUIs) while addressing the
stringent resource constraints of wearable applications. The new GPU IP has already
been adopted by multiple leading customers.

GCNanoOptimaV incorporates dedicated hardware stroke and ellipse engines to address
performance bottlenecks in vector graphics rendering. Its hardware stroke engine
significantly improves the rendering performance of complex lines and curves, particularly
in applications such as health monitoring, fitness tracking, and navigation. In 
addition, its innovative mesh rendering architecture reduces on-chip SRAM requirements,
enabling more memory-efficient GPU integration in resource-constrained SoC designs.

GCNanoOptimaV also integrates VeriSilicon’s latest DECNano 3.0 compression engine,
delivering improved image quality while maintaining a fixed 2:1 compression ratio.
The GPU maintains compatibility with VeriSilicon’s VGLite graphics API and supports
widely adopted graphics frameworks and formats, including LVGL, SVG, and PNG. This
software compatibility facilitates the migration of existing applications with minimal
modifications, simplifying system integration and accelerating product development.

"Wearable devices are evolving rapidly, with increasingly sophisticated applications
driving demand for greater functionality and higher graphics performance, while 
power consumption and memory footprint remain critical constraints," said Weijin
Dai, Chief Strategy Officer, Executive Vice President and General Manager of the
IP Division at VeriSilicon. "Through architectural innovations and advanced hardware
acceleration, our next-generation 2.5D GPU IP delivers measurable performance improvements
and power savings in applications such as mapping and navigation. We are excited
to bring these advancements to the wearable market, enabling richer visual experiences
within the stringent power and memory budgets."
