TranSwitch Corp., a provider of semiconductor solutions for the converging data, video and voice wireline and wireless networks, announced it will formally introduce its latest High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) for next generation digital television (DTV) and home theatre applications at the 2010 International CES trade show being held in Las Vegas from Jan. 7-10.
The company said the HD-PXL-1.4 includes 3D Video and support for new 4K super resolution displays. Tapping into the demand for video, the company noted the capabilities of TranSwitch's latest HDMI technology enable mass market consumption of electronics products offering television viewing experiences that also bring video games to life.
"Our new HD-PXL-1.4 cores have a major performance advantage over competitors who do not support the full suite of features included in the HDMI 1.4 specification or the maximum data rate that is required to support all extended resolutions," said Amir Bar-Niv, Vice President for Systems and Applications at TranSwitch Corp. "The transmitter and receiver HD-PXL-1.4 cores are available today in the TSMC 65nm process, and to round out our platform we intend to release 40nm version later this year. In addition, we plan to introduce an HDMI 1.4 Ethernet Channel (HEC) offering based on our widely deployed industry standard Ethernet PHY IP cores."
The new HD-PXL-1.4 transmitter and receiver cores incorporate all of the features in the HDMI 1.4 specifications including the Audio Return Channel (ARC) which eliminates the need for separate audio cables between the television set and the Home Theatre equipment, HDCP version 1.4 and a full range of expanded color spaces, the company said.
