cost addition of the DVI-HDCP interface to LCD monitors, projectors, digital

televisions (DTVs), plasma displays and LCD TVs. With the DVI-compliant SiI 1169,

displays can realize consistently high image quality while receiving premium video

content encrypted with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). HDCP

has received support from major Hollywood studios. Integrated, pre-programmed

HDCP keys significantly simplify manufacturing while providing the highest level of

security. With a full DVI single-link bandwidth of 25-165MHz, the SiI 1169 supports

all HDTV resolutions (720p/1080i/1080p) and PC resolutions up to UXGA. The

SiI 1169 offers high jitter tolerance and efficient power management and is based

on an innovative and new scalable PLL architecture that enables interoperability

with a broader range of DVI transmitters. A new programmable equalizer takes

the SiI 1169 to unprecedented performance levels over longer cable lengths.

Two SiI 1169 receivers may be used together to suppor t dual-link applications.

Synchronization circuitry coordinates data output between the two parts. This flexible

design allows one circuit board to serve for both single- and dual-link applications,

populating the second SiI 1169 receiver when needed.

All these features and benefits are provided in a 100-pin TQFP package that is back-

The SiI 1169 allows DTV manufacturers to quickly and easily integrate the DVI-HDCP

interface into their advanced digital products. By supporting HDCP for DVI now,

new applications in display security can be realized that enable viewing of premium

video content.
