PanelLink Transmitters
The SiI 1364 and SiI 1362 are the world’s first fully compliant Serial Digital Video
Output (SDVO)-based DVI transmitters that support the full operating range of
Intel’s SDVO input port (1-2 GHz) and the full scalable DVI
output bandwidth (25-165 MHz). Incorporating the latest
PanelLink
®
technology, the SiI 1362 and SiI 1364 support display
resolutions ranging from VGA to UXGA (1600x1200) in a single
link interface. Both chips are designed explicitly to accommodate
the 1-2 Gbps ultra-high speeds required for SDVO signaling.
With the Integrated Graphics Chipset (IGC) market shifting to PCI Express, a new DVI
transmitter solution is required to support Intel’s new SDVO interface.The SiI 1364 and
SiI 1362 address this new market need for DVI transmitters compatible with PCI
Express chipsets implementing SDVO.
The SiI 1364 is available in a low-cost 64-pin TQFP package, and the SiI 1362 is
available in a low-cost 48-pin LQFP package. The SiI 1362 is targeted for desktop and
notebook motherboard applications and requires configuration content to be pro-
grammed into the system BIOS ROM. Targeted for ADD2 card applications, the
SiI 1364 requires a dedicated external EEPROM to store its configuration data. By
incorporating the most advanced PanelLink DVI technology available today, the SiI 1364
and SiI 1362 transmitters bring the highest performance to your DVI applications.
DVI-compliant Quality
The DVI 1.0 specification defines the precise system-level signaling at the output of a DVI
transmitter system and at the input of a DVI receiver system. As a result, any DVI-compliant host
will always interoperate with any DVI-compliant display.The most comprehensive method to deter-
mine the quality and compliance of a DVI transmitter is to measure the TMDS “eye” diagram as
defined by the DVI 1.0 specification and the DVI Test & Measurement Guide. Only high-
performance PanelLink DVI transmitters, such as the SiI 1364 and 1362, yield consistently robust
differential signal “eyes” that exceed the minimum “eye” width & height requirements of the DVI
specification at the full DVI bandwidth of 25-165 MHz.
