Analogix Introduces Battery-Preserving Internal Display Translators for Tablets and Notebooks

Analogix Semiconductor, Inc., a leader in DisplayPort-based interconnect technologies, today introduced its line of power-efficient display translator devices that convert a system platforms’ DisplayPort™ output to existing single or dual LVDS embedded screens. (see diagram) Compliant with DisplayPort version 1.1a and embedded DisplayPort (eDP) at link rates of up to 2.7Gbs, the Analogix ANX1120 and ANX1121 chips allow for the development of battery-optimized, cost-effective Intel Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge and other CPU platforms. “Tablet and notebook makers are in the midst of a major technology shift - CPUs are removing legacy LVDS interfaces and replacing them with embedded DisplayPort in order to reduce pin count,” said Andre Bouwer, vice president of marketing for Analogix. “However, the transition to DisplayPort-ready panels will take a few years, creating an immediate market need for the battery-optimized Analogix’ DisplayPort to LVDS converters for manufacturing flexibility.”

Analogix Announces SlimPort Compatibility with MyDP Mobile Connectivity Standard

To enable true HD and 3D streaming capabilities for mobile devices, eliminate royalties and restrictions of competing display standards and provide simplicity for consumers, Analogix Semiconductor, Inc., a leader in DisplayPort-based interconnect technologies, announced that SlimPort (TM) family of transmitter and receiver products are compatible with the proposed MyDP (Mobility DisplayPort) digital interface standard. Both MyDP and Analogix’ SlimPort family of products are based on DisplayPort, an industry-proven technology. DisplayPort is an open, royalty-free digital-display interface standard that has achieved strong adoption in the PC, notebook, tablet and monitor spaces. MyDP, a companion of the DisplayPort standard, is a VESA proposed Mobility DisplayPort standard specified to reduce the number of communication signal pins for the mobile market. “There has been a tremendous interest in our Slimport products, and making these work with the MyDP proposed standard expands the use
