VastLane HDMI Transmitter PHY
Low-power, dual-mode HDMI™ 1.3 / MHL™ transmitter PHY for high-
definition consumer electronics
The VastLane™ SiI9204 is a dual-mode HDMI/MHL transmitter PHY designed for home-
theater applications, consumer electronics and high-end mobile devices. Together with
Silicon Image’s digital link layer IP core that is integrated in the device’s system-on-a-chip
(SoC), the SiI9204 PHY enables SoC suppliers to offer a low-cost yet extremely powerful
HDMI solution in a single SoC design. Coupled with a full featured SoC, the SiI9204 can
provide support for high-end HDMI 1.3 features such as high bit-rate audio and x.v.Color.
With its SiI9002 compatibility mode, the SiI9204 is also attractive for those Silicon Image
customers who already combine their SoCs with the SiI9002 PHY.
The SiI9204 PHY simplifies high-speed mixed
signal design by resolving many of the design
challenges faced by consumer electronics SoC
suppliers. The SiI9204 PHY supports a 12-bit
dual-edge digital interface to the SoC that
reduces SoC I/O requirements. Its integrated
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) signifi-
cantly reduces the bill-of-materials cost.
The SiI9204 PHY is capable of supporting color
depths and resolutions up to 36-bit Deep Color
@ 1080p/60.
The SiI9204 transmitter PHY combined with
Silicon Image’s SoC-integrated link layer IP
allows for shorter design cycles, simplified test-
ing and faster compliance versus full transmitter
integration. Silicon Image’s solution provides
benefits of both approaches: lower bill-of-mate-
rials cost than discrete transmitter implementa-
tions and faster time-to-market and less chip I/O
than full transmitter integration into the SoC.
