MediaTek has unveiled the Genio 360 and Genio 360P processors, featuring hexa-core and octa-core configurations respectively with Arm Cortex-A76/A55 architecture. They include a MediaTek NPU providing up to 8 TOPS AI performance, optimized for cost-effective embedded solutions.
These processors can support up to 8GB of memory and various storage interfaces including eMMC 5.1, SPI NOR, and SD 3.0. Dual display setups are possible with two 4-lane MIPI DSI and one 4-lane DP/eDP interface, and there are two 4-lane MIPI CSI camera interfaces, Gigabit Ethernet with TSN, optional WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3 via MT6631N, USB 3.1 and 2.0, and PCIe Gen2 x1 interfaces.
MediaTek Genio 360/360P come with:
- CPU
- Genio 360 (MT8366): Hexa-core
- 1x Cortex-A76 at up to 1.9/2.0 GHz

- Genio 360P (MT8367): Octa-core
- 2x Cortex-A76 at up to 1.9/2.0 GHz
- 6x Cortex-A55 at up to 1.7/2.0 GHz
- Genio 360 (MT8366): Hexa-core
- GPU – Arm Mali-G57 MC2
- VPU – Video decode at 4Kp30, encode at 1080p90
- Up to 8GB 32-bit LPDDR4X-3733 memory
- Security features include ARM TrustZone, Security Boot, Crypto Engine, and RNG
- Package in VFBGA (12.2 x 13.4 x 0.9 mm)
- Industrial operating range features
- 6nm manufacturing process
Positioned between the entry-tier Genio 350 and mainstream Genio 510, the Genio 360 series provides a balance of performance and cost-effectiveness.
The Genio 360/360P is supported by Android, and later this year by Ubuntu and Yocto Linux. A forthcoming Genio 360-EVK Evaluation Kit offers extensive features for prototyping advanced AIoT applications.
MediaTek assures a 10-year life cycle for the Genio 360 and lists the evaluation kit on Innocomm. For further details, prospective customers should visit the MediaTek product page.
