Analogix ANX7580 Display Controller Empowers LG Dual Screen Handheld Mobile Applications
Analogix Semiconductor, Inc. today announced that its SlimPort® ANX7580 DisplayPort™ to MIPI-DSI display controller has been implemented in multiple devices, the most recent being the LG V60 ThinQ and the Dual Screen, as well as in various handheld PC gaming devices.
With a 4-lane DisplayPort 1.4 input and 4 MIPI lanes for a single panel, the ANX7580 connects to graphics processing units (GPUs), both embedded and discreet, and to MIPI displays used in dual clamshell display applications today. These applications benefit from the following ANX7580 key advantages:
- Support for DisplayPort and embedded DisplayPort (eDP);
- Support for ARM, x86, and other computing architectures;
- High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) support such as video content protection and Hi-Fi audio;
- Small footprint (4x4 mm2) and low power (<150mW) architecture;
- Turn-key reference design for fast time-to-market.
“Innovation and refinement drive our roadmap to create products that enable our OEM customers’ success,” said Michael Ching, vice president of marketing at Analogix. “They can create differentiated dual screen applications to satisfy the most extreme multitaskers. One can open independent applications on either screen or extend an application across both screens. Gamers can use one screen as a control pad, while multitaskers can work with two apps simultaneously. An advantage of this form factor is that the dual screen accessory can be put on when needed and slid the phone out of when not.”
The ANX7580 is in mass production. (Source: Analogix website)
