SII9030CTUTR-7 PanelLink Transmitter - Silicon image
Silicon Image introduces the second generation of its PanelLink® product family
with advances in performance and functionality well beyond other digital interface
products on the market. With the first groundbreaking HDMI parts, PanelLink
brought a new level of digital quality to mass-market home theater systems.
The latest advances increase audio format support, video resolution and HDMI
port count, while reducing overall system cost. PanelLink products are fully
HDMI 1.0 compliant. As always, Silicon Image has built PanelLink silicon for rapid
integration into consumer electronics system architectures.
The SiI 9030 is an advanced HDMI transmitter that fits directly into home theater
products, such as DVD players /recorders, A/V receivers, digital set-top boxes,
personal video recorders (PVRs) and D-VHS players. To improve manufacturers’
time-to-market and reduce design time, the SiI 9030 is backward compatible with
first-generation PanelLink transmitters. In addition to all the features in the original
PanelLink transmitter, the SiI 9030 supports the DVD Audio standard including
7.1-surround audio at 96kHz and stereo audio at 192kHz. The SiI 9030 supports
resolutions up to 1080p. To reduce system cost, the SiI 9030 has an additional
I2C Master port to control the DDC bus.
The built-in High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) encryption engine
secures the digital link for transmission of valuable high-definition video and audio.
