General Description

As the universal transmitter, SiI 150A uses PanelLink Digital technology to support displays ranging from VGA to SXGA (25-112 MHz). The SiI 150A transmitter supports up to true color panels (24 bit/pixel, 16.7M colors) in 1 or 2 pixels/clock mode, and also features an inter-pair skew tolerance up to 1 full input clock cycle. An advanced on-chip jitter filter is also added to extend tolerance to VGA clock jitter. Since all PanelLink products are designed on scaleable CMOS architecture to support future performance requirements while maintaining the same logical interface, system designers can be assured that the interface will be fixed through a number of technology and performance generations.

Features

• Scaleable Bandwidth: 25-112 MHz (VGA to SXGA)

• Low Power: 3.3V core operation & power-down mode

• High Skew Tolerance: 1 full input clock cycle (9ns at 108 MHz)

• Flexible panel interface: single or dual pixel in at up to 24-bits

• Cable Distance Support: over 5m with twisted-pair, fiber-optics ready

• Compliant with DVI 1.0 (DVI is backwards compatible with VESA® P&DTM and DFP)
