Note the following VESA standards following this entry. (Video Electronics Standards Association See VESA. (body, standard) Video Electronics Standards Association - (VESA) An industry standards organisation created in 1989 or 1990 mostly(?) concerned with IBM compatible personal computers. ) for a commercially-available transmitter product. The Analogix ANX9805 DisplayPort Transmitter device passed an extensive qualification test by VESA-authorized independent testing lab Allion and becomes the first standalone product of its type to be able to feature the DisplayPort logo. The Analogix ANX9805 DisplayPort transmitter is fully compliant with the DisplayPort 1.1a specification. It also includes HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) An encryption system for enforcing digital rights management (DRM) over DVI and HDMI interfaces. The copy protection system (DRM) resides in the computer, DVD player or set-top box. encryption, and is compliant to the HDCP 1.3 specification and the NVIDIA Upstream Protocol. The ANX9805 provides all the signal requirements for the DisplayPort source device receptacle. It can be used for video output applications in a PC or PC graphics card, or in embedded applications such as inside a notebook PC or DTV (Digital TeleVision) Transmitting TV using digital signals. The major DTV standards are ATSC (North America), DVB (Europe) and ISDB (Japan). All three use MPEG-2 video compression and Dolby Digital audio compression. DVB and ISDB also include MPEG audio compression. to drive the internal flat panel display A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time interface. "As one of the early market drivers of the DisplayPort standard and leader in DisplayPort technology, Analogix is thrilled to reach this major milestone of being the industry's first to receive VESA's DisplayPort certification logo for transmitter products," said Dr. Kewei Yang, Analogix's CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. and Chairman. "Both our DisplayPort Transmitter and Receiver family of products have garnered significant traction in the market and industry. We believe our cost-effective, high-performance and highly reliable solution will drive wide-spread adoption of the DisplayPort standard." The ANX9805 DisplayPort Transmitter is currently sampling and will be available in mass production quantities in early Q3'08. For more information please contact sales@analogixsemi.com.
