New Update

TOKYO, JAPAN: Toshiba Corporation today announced that it has launched "TC358779XBG", the industry's first High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) to MIPI Display Serial Interface (DSI) bridge integrated circuit (IC) for consumer and industrial applications that use small form-factor LCD displays. Samples are now available, with mass production scheduled to start in December this year.

The "TC358779XBG" converts HDMI video input and outputs it as a MIPI DSI video stream output. This will promote adoption of MIPI-compliant small form-factor LCD displays in applications that include game accessories, wearable computers and head-mounted products.

The product also integrates video preprocessing functions-video de-interlacing, scaling and format conversion-and supports multiple audio interfaces, including the I2S, TDM, S/PDIF and MIPI Serial Low-power Inter-chip Media bus (SLIMbus) audio formats.
