SHELTON, Conn. - January 05, 2012 - TranSwitch Corporation
(NASDAQ: ), a leading provider of semiconductor solutions
in the rapidly growing consumer electronics and
telecommunications markets, today introduced its HDwire™
video interface solution. The Company's HDwire™ video
interface solution offers the industry's fastest video
interface, supporting current and next-generation,
high-definition (HD) video displays. The ultra-fast
HDwire™ panel interface ensures reliable, crystal-clear
video for the highest available computer and TV display
resolutions at low power consumption and low system design
cost. TranSwitch is initially offering HDwire™ as
licensable intellectual property (IP) cores and plans to
offer IC's in the future.
The current generation of Low-Voltage Differential
Signaling (LVDS) TV internal interfaces operate at
relatively slow speeds and require cables with a high
number of wires to transmit video signals from the video
processor to the display panel controller. With the ever
increasing size, resolution, refresh rate, and color depth
of new LCD/LED panels, the number of LVDS cables required
is rapidly increasing, thus driving up the cost and
complexity of TV's and computer monitors.
TranSwitch's HDwire™ transceiver is designed to support the
needs of emerging displays without the need for multiple,
expensive cables and connectors.
"By leveraging our vast experience with ultra high speed
video interconnect standards and close relationships with
leading consumer electronics manufacturers, TranSwitch has
developed the industry's fastest video interface solution
to replace the aging LVDS technology. TranSwitch's
HDwire™ solution offers performance of 5Gbps per link and
scalability that significantly reduces the cost of cabling
in High-Definition (HD) and Ultra-High-Definition (UHD)
panels compared with other solutions," said Amir Bar-Niv,
Senior Vice President and General Manager of the High Speed
Interconnect Business at TranSwitch. "With the emergence of
UHD content, manufacturers can utilize the blazing fast
HDwire™ video interface to develop ultra-high dots-per-inch
(DPI) monitors and television displays. By increasing the
DPI, these displays will deliver video that is crisper and
clearer than ever before."
, it is estimated that roughly 240 million digital TVs and
270 million computer monitors will be shipped in
2014. Also, new flat-panel TV's with resolutions of
4K x 2K (beyond 1080p) will be launched to production
starting in 2012. With the phase out of LVDS
technology by TV and monitor OEMs, HDwire™ presents a new
and significant addressable market and growth opportunity
for TranSwitch. It is estimated that the market for
high-definition panel interface solutions will exceed USD
$250 million per year by 2014.
TranSwitch's new HDwire™ solution is a fully integrated
transceiver that provides up to 12 lanes, with link speeds
of 5.0 Gbps to support both 4K x 2K and 8K x 4K
resolutions.
