VastLane HDMI / MHL Transmitter PHY
Ultra-low-power, low pin-count HDMI™ 1.3 and MHL™
transmitter PHY for high-definition mobile devices
The VastLane SiI9206 is the world’s first dual mode HDMI 1.3 and MHL technology trans-
mitter PHY designed for power sensitive mobile devices. Together with Silicon Image’s
link layer IP core integrated into mobile device system-on-a-chip (SoC), the SiI9206 PHY
enables SoC suppliers to offer a low-cost HDMI or MHL solution in a single SoC design
to meet fast time-to-market requirements.
MHL technology is an audio/video interface
designed to connect mobile devices to HDTVs
and deliver full high-definition digital video and
audio via only five pins on a miniature connec-
tor. Utilizing only two differential TMDS pairs
for audio/video packets and a single-wire con-
trol bus, MHL delivers the necessary video
bandwidth and replicates all the required DDC
and CEC control signals that come with the tra-
ditional 19-pin HDMI interface.
The SiI9206 PHY simplifies high-speed mixed
signal design by resolving many of the design
challenges faced by mobile device SoC suppliers.
The SiI9206 PHY supports a low pin-count 6-
bit digital interface to the SoC that reduces SoC
I/O requirements and the integrated CEC and
8kV ESD protection reduces bill-of-material
cost.
In order to fit into the tight constraints of
today’s highly integrated mobile device electron-
ics, the SiI9206 PHY is housed in a 4mm x
4mm, 0.8mm thin profile, 28-pin QFN package.
The SiI9206 PHY is capable of supporting color
depth and resolutions up to 36-bit Deep Color
@ 1080p/30 (HDMI) and 24-bit @ 1080p/30
(MHL).
Silicon Image’s SiI9206 transmitter PHY with
SoC integrated link layer IP solution allows for
shorter design cycles, simplified testing and
faster compliance versus full transmitter integra-
tion. Silicon Image’s solution provides benefits
of both approaches: lower bill-of-material cost
than discrete transmitter implementations, and
faster time-to-market and less chip I/O than full
transmitter integration into the SoC.
