DVI Compliancy and Dual Channel Support
Numerous Applications
Conexant's broadband communications portfolio includes a
comprehensive suite of semiconductor solutions that enable the
digital home and information network. Compliant with the Digital
Visual Interface (DVI) industry specification, the CX25894/5/6 family
of high performance, single-chip transmitters offers single or dual link
output. Supporting up to two independent concurrent channels and
two serial interfaces, this device is well suited for desktop PCs
or any application that drives digital or flat panel displays.
High-bandwidth Digital-Content Protection (HDCP) was developed to
protect digital entertainment content flowing over the DVI interface.
HDCP encrypts the transmission of digital content between the video
source or transmitter such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box
and the digital display, or receiver such as a monitor, television or
projector. Once authentication is established, the transmitter encrypts
the data and sends it to the receiver for decryption.
Three versions of this DVI-Compliant transmitter are available. The
CX25895/6 accepts and sends out different resolutions and independent
content simultaneously.
CX25894
offers a single channel, single link DVI, supporting resolutions up
to 1600 x 1200, 60 Hz vertical refresh (maximum).
CX25895
adds another independent channel and supports up to two
single link 1600 x 1200 DVI outputs or a dual link output with a resolution
to 2048 x 1536. Using the CX25895, you have the flexibility to enable two
low-resolution DVI outputs or one high resolution flat panel monitor or DTV.
CX25896
builds upon the CX25895 but adds the industry standard
high definition copy protection (HDCP 1.0).
The CX25894/5/6 is packaged in an 84-pin QFN (body: 12.0 mm x 12.0
mm, pin pitch 0.40 mm). All are pin compatible.
