SINGAPORE, Jan. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In the fast-evolving esports hardware landscape, refresh rate is a make-or-break factor for gaming excellence. PHILIPS EVNIA's groundbreaking 1000Hz Ultra-High Refresh Rate Dual-Mode Gaming Monitor 27M2N5500XD officially launches today, bringing millisecond-winning smoothness to all gamers with its core "1000Hz Dual-Mode" technology.
Revolutionary Dual-Mode, Uncompromised Power
As the first dual-mode monitor with a true 1000Hz panel, the 27M2N5500XD eliminates motion blur and screen tearing in fast-paced FPS games like CS:GO and Valorant, making moving targets and bullet trajectories crystal-clear. Switch effortlessly between HD@1000Hz (ultra-smooth competitive mode) and QHD@540Hz (Overclocked, 2K high-res balance) via the quick access shortcut—no trade-offs between speed and visual detail.
Blazing Speed, Stunning Clarity
Equipped with a world leading fast IPS panel, ultimate high contrast ratio 2000:1 and 0.3ms smart MBR response time, this monitor delivers sharp, lag-free visuals. Enhanced by AI-Powered technology, it suppresses motion trailing, ensuring every skill activation and quick movement stays crisp. The "Three Highs" advantage (high resolution + high refresh + high image quality) caters perfectly to FPS enthusiasts.
Top-Tier Connectivity, Color Precision
Unleash full performance with a DP2.1 interface (80Gbps lossless transmission) and HDMI2.1 (48Gbps), supporting seamless connections to consoles and PCs. Covering 100% sRGB, 96% DCI-P3, and 94% Adobe RGB, plus 1.07 billion colors and Delta E < 1, it renders game scenes vividly. VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification (500nit peak brightness) boosts contrast and depth for immersive gameplay.
AI-Powered, Eye-Friendly
The flagship 27M2N5500XD integrates "AI + Health" features:
- Hardware & Software Low Blue Light technology protects eyes during long sessions.
- Smart MBR + Adaptive-Sync prevents tearing and stutter.
- AI-enhanced Stark Shadow Boost reveals hidden details in shadows.

NOR or NAND Flash? License AND! Arasan announces xSPI NOR AND eMMC NAND Combo PHY IP integrated seamlessly with its xSPI + eMMC Combo Controller IP
SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Arasan Chip Systems, a leading provider of semiconductor IP for mobile and automobile SoCs, today announced the immediate availability of its xSPI + eMMC Combo PHY IP. This IP integrates both xSPI and eMMC 5.1 PHY into a single unified solution, enabling support for two distinct memory protocols within the same IP. The xSPI + eMMC Combo PHY IP is targeted at mission critical applications in defense and aerospace industries for SoC's that require the reliability of the NOR Flash and bulk data storage capabilities and cost advantages of the NAND Flash. This IP can also be used by for life endangering applications like medical devices wherein reliability is paramount.
The xSPI + eMMC Combo PHY IP is engineered to address the growing demand for high-performance, area-efficient storage solutions in embedded and boot applications. By leveraging a shared I/O and analog front-end architecture, the design significantly reduces pin count and silicon footprint, delivering a cost-effective and power-optimized implementation for SoC and MCU platforms.
"This dual-mode PHY allows customers to seamlessly support both eMMC and next-generation xSPI devices with a single low pin count IP, lowering system cost and accelerating time to market. With the launch of our xSPI + eMMC Combo PHY IP , Arasan continues to push the boundaries of storage interface IP innovation," said Ron Mabry, VP of Sales at Arasan.
Arasan offers a comprehensive suite of mobile storage IP for solid state storage interfaces like UFS, eMMC, xSPI, NAND Flash and I2C Controller IP. Arasan has sold over 200 licenses of its eMMC IP and is also the leading provider xSPI IP thereby addressing the NOR and NAND Flash markets individually or how with this product, providing a combined solution.
The xSPI and eMMC Combo PHY IP is available to license immediately on leading foundries in nodes from 28nm to 3nm.
