Cypress's HOTLink-On-Demand(TM) Video SERDES Selected for OmniTek's PCI Engine Platform; Provides Flexible, Economical Solution for OmniTek's Digital Video Testing and Pattern Generation.SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NYSE NYSESee: New York Stock Exchange :CY) today announced that OmniTek, a leading developer of video processing equipment, has selected Cypress's HOTLink-On-Demand(TM) Video SERDES See serializer/deserializer. device for the OmniTek PCI (1) (Payment Card Industry) See PCI DSS. (2) (Peripheral Component Interconnect) The most widely used I/O bus (peripheral bus). Video Engine Platform. OmniTek's highly advanced real-time PCI video engine system is completely programmable to allow new features and video formats to be installed via a software download. All versions also include an analog RGB/YUV/composite monitoring output, plus an analog synchronous reference input. The PCI card is available with multiformat serial digital I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output or dual-link serial digital connections. The Cypress HOTLink-On-Demand Video SERDES (CYV15G0204TRB TRB Transportation Research Board TRB Technical Review Board TRB Teacher Registration Board TRB Test Review Board TRB Total Relationship Balance TRB Tap-Rack-Bang (shooting procedure) TRB Theodore Roosevelt Building ) used in the OmniTek system delivers an economical solution for multichannel, multiformat serial digital input and output processing. The CYV15G0204TRB device offers dual-channel independent transmit and receive functionality. It is part of Cypress's HOTLink-On-Demand family -SERDES devices with up to four channels that allow for multiple protocol video support (SD-SDI, HD-SDI, DVB-ASI DVB-ASI Digital Video Broadcasting - Asynchronous Serial Interface ) on any channel at any time. The devices consume less board space than equivalent competing solutions, allowing customers to increase system port counts without increasing board real estate. The HOTLink-on-Demand family is the largest and most flexible portfolio of Society of Motion Pictures and Television Engineers (SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, White Plains, NY, www.smpte.org) A professional society for motion picture and TV engineers with more than 9,000 members worldwide. It prepares standards and documentation for TV production. ) standards-compliant PHYs on the market. They include a combination of serializers, deserializers, reclockers and transceivers, giving designers scalability and flexibility in their professional video equipment designs, including production switchers, distribution amplifiers, D/A D/A See: Documents Against Acceptance and A/D converters, and camera control units. "Cypress's HOTLink-On-Demand Family provided us with the most economical and quickest time-to-market solution," said Mike Hodson, managing director of OmniTek. "The new OmniTek Dual-Link generators and analyzers require multi-channel SDI (1) (Serial Digital Interface) A physical interface widely used for transmitting digital video in various formats. For electrical transmission, it uses a high grade of coaxial cable and a single BNC connector with Teflon insulation. inputs and outputs, and the Cypress devices were the obvious choice for these designs." "We're excited that HOTLink-On-Demand can add value to OmniTek's innovative product offerings," said Erin Kettwig, product manager for Cypress physical layer devices. "Our goal is to provide customers with a portfolio enabling them to design exactly what they need with minimal design effort. We are committed to adding to our portfolio to address needs of our customers." Cypress will be demonstrating an OmniTek PCI engine with HOTLink-ON-Demand in booth 11.141 at the International Broadcasters Conference (IBC IBC International Building Code IBC Iraq Body Count IBC Institutional Biosafety Committee IBC Inflammatory Breast Cancer IBC International Business Company IBC Independence Blue Cross IBC Insurance Bureau of Canada IBC International Broadcasting Convention ) to be held at the RAI Convention Centre, Amsterdam, Netherlands from September 9 through September 13, 2005. Cypress will also demonstrate its newly introduced video equalizers and the new YLink(TM) Port Protection Switch.
