Silicon Image Brings Latest HD Connectivity Technology Into Mainstream Home Theater Market With New Port Processors
January 08 2013 - 8:05AM
Business Wire
Silicon Image (NASDAQ: SIMG), a leading provider of HD
connectivity solutions, today announced the expansion of its
comprehensive integrated circuit (IC) portfolio for the home
theater market. The new SiI9533 and SiI9535 port processors −
targeted for sound bars, A/V receivers and Home-Theater-in-a-Box
(HTiB) systems − support the latest MHL® and HDMI® standards with
resolutions up to 4K UltraHD as well as innovative technologies
such as InstaPrevue™ and InstaPort™ S.
“Sound bars and HTiB systems represent one of the fastest
growing segments in the Home Theater space. As TVs have gotten
thinner, sound quality has suffered, creating increased demand for
sound bars and home theater systems,” said Alex Chervet, senior
director of marketing at Silicon Image, Inc. “The new SiI9533 and
SiI9535 port processors provide a high-quality and cost-effective
solution for this growing market segment.”
The SiI9533 and SiI9535 port processors feature InstaPrevue
technology, which offers simultaneous live picture-in-picture
previews of every device connected via HDMI or MHL inputs, from
Blu-ray™ players to mobile devices. InstaPrevue eliminates the
hassle of searching through inputs to determine which port is your
Blu-ray player, set-top box, or other source device. Instead,
consumers can easily view and select the live preview window to
switch between connected devices.
The SiI9533 and SiI9535 port processors fully support the MHL
2.0 standard, adding to the ecosystem of over 220 million
MHL-enabled devices shipped to date. Sound bars, A/V receivers, and
Home-Theater-in-a-Box systems based on the SiI9533 and SiI9535 port
processors will automatically detect MHL source devices and output
HD video up to 4K UltraHD as well as 8.1 channels of high bit rate
audio.
Silicon Image is currently sampling the SiI9533 and SiI9535 port
processors.

connectivity solutions for mobile, wireless, DTV and home theater
