ANALOGIX ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF HIGH PERFORMANCE DISPLAYPORT™ Dual TTL TRANSLATOR CHIP

Analogix Low power ANX9824™ DisplayPort-to-Dual TTL Translator chip reduces BOM component count and eliminates need for external translator device, providing high performance receiver with on-chip MCU and audio support

YOKOHAMA, Japan – March 26, 2008 – Analogix Semiconductor, Inc. a world leader in high performance digital media interface solutions, today showcased a high-performance DisplayPort-to-TTL translator chip, the ANX9824, at the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) PlugTest event in Japan. The new device combines an integrated DisplayPort 1.1a receiver with an on-chip MCU to provide high-performance, low power DisplayPort support for connecting video source to video display and audio.

High-performance Analogix DisplayPort Receiver Support

The ANX9824 chip, fully compatible with DisplayPort specification 1.1a, can support a total data throughput of 10.8Gbps using a single interconnect cable. Data is transported at a rate of 1.2Gbps or 2.7Gbps over 1, 2, or 4 separate two-wire differential pairs with a data rate of up to 2.2 times a single-link DVI or HDMI 1.2 connection. The ANX9824 is ideally suited for direct drive monitor (DDM) applications with features that support programmable video processing, up to 30bpp, and a micro-packet structure for variable color depths. The ANX9824 supports S/PDIF audio output with up to 8 channels audio in and two channels audio out. Its AUX CH link provides up to 1Mbps bandwidth.

The DP to TTL translator chip features TTL Outputs in dual port with full support of spread spectrum clocking. The product will feature support of both 3.3v & 1.2v power supplies and flexible packaging options initially available in a 144 pin LQFP package.
