The Si
I
861
PanelLink Controller
Continuing our tradition of providing the world’s most advanced and highest
performance monitor controller solutions, Silicon Image presents the SiI 861
PanelLink
®
Monitor Controller. The SiI 861 is a single-chip solution that provides
all the functionality required for high-end, pure digital flat panel monitors with
resolutions up to SXGA+(1400X1050). The SiI 861 offers technological advances
and features designed to simplify any flat panel monitor design. And since
PanelLink is the most widely adopted DVI implementation with over 10 million
PanelLink products shipped to-date, compatibility to all DVI hosts is guaranteed.
Incorporating Silicon Image’s production proven PanelLink digital receiver, the
SiI 861 also accepts digital entertainment video that has been encrypted and
protected using High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP), an extension
of the Digital Visual Interface (DVI) and supported by Motion Picture Association
(MPA) member companies. The SiI 861’s integrated Low Voltage Differential
Signaling (LVDS) transmitter is compatible with all single-channel LVDS panels
further reducing total system costs. Additionally the SiI 861’s new improved
PixelPrecision
™
image processing provides the best scaling and color
management available on the market today.
As a single-chip solution, the SiI 861 lowers overall cost, increases reliability,
requires less board space, and facilitates easier design and layout. The SiI 861
enables monitor designers to deliver the highest quality, DVI-compliant monitors
at costs attractive for mass-market adoption.
