First Commercial Solutions Enable the Highest Resolutions and Fastest Response Times Throughout the Entire VR Data Communication Channel
SANTA CLARA, Calif. -Tuesday, January 9th 2018 [ AETOS Wire ]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Analogix Semiconductor, Inc. today announced that its dedicated family of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) display controllers, the SlimPort® ANX753x, has been implemented in the recently launched tethered VR head mounted displays (HMD) such as the Microsoft Windows 10 Mixed Reality headsets.
With DisplayPort 1.4 input, 16-DSI lanes per device, and support for HDCP 2.2/1.4 high-bandwidth digital content protection, the ANX753x family of DisplayPort™ to Quad MIPI-DSI controllers drive the high resolutions required by today’s most performant VR HMDs at up to 120 frames per second (FPS). They can be used in USB-C™ and non-USB-C applications and can manipulate a variety of video scan modes.
“We are working closely with VR headset makers as well as VR display panel manufacturers to ensure interoperability and provide high-performance turnkey solutions that are fully compliant to industry standards,” said Michael Ching, vice president of marketing for Analogix. “With a long experience in DisplayPort, our technology and product roadmap enable future generations of VR headsets to have the power and pixels of a true high-end VR experience.”
The ANX753x is part of a comprehensive suite of commercial VR products designed to address current and future needs of the entire VR data communication channel, enabling reliable and high-performance transmission of video, data, and power between the VR source and the HMD. Analogix’s suite of VR solutions also includes:
Highly-integrated port controller solutions for VR HMD designs which require USB-C ports. The ANX7327, a USB-PD 3.0 port controller with an integrated de-mux supporting switching at data rates of up to 10 gigabits per second (Gbps), can be used in conjunction with the ANX753x family.
Single-chip bridge solutions and re-timer with integrated USB-C switch solutions for VR system designs using legacy interfaces, such as HDMI and standard DisplayPort, and needing to connect to USB-C:
HDMI 2.0 + USB 3.1 to USBC Adapter (ANX7688 bridge)
DisplayPort 1.4 + USB 3.1 to USB-C Adapter (ANX7440 re-timer with USB-C switch)
Signal integrity 10 Gbps re-timer solutions for USB-C cable extenders implemented in active VR cables with extended lengths (ANX7440, ANX7496, ANX7490).
Product demonstrations are taking place during this week’s CES® 2018, at Analogix’s booth #20539 in LVCC South Hall 1.
