TranSwitch®
Corporation (NASDAQ: TXCC),
a leading provider of semiconductor solutions in the rapidly growing
consumer electronics and telecommunications markets, today announced
that the Company is working with InFocus to leverage HDplay® technology
in several upcoming projectors. TranSwitch’s TXC-44152 HDplay
transceiver has been selected by InFocus as an enabling video solution
for two new projector platforms that will drive the design of several
new projector models, with production starts planned by early Q1 2014.
InFocus, a global leader in digital display devices, will leverage
HDplay’s exceptional level of integration to reduce design cost and
complexity, while speeding time-to-market.
According to PMA
Research, the worldwide projector market continues to increase and
is anticipated to reach 9.5 million units in 2013. Many of these
projectors are expected to feature multiple connectivity standards,
including HDMI® and DisplayPort™. According to a report by TechNavio,
HDMI- and DisplayPort-enabled device shipments are forecasted to
increase at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.7% and 31.6%,
respectively, from 2012 to 2016.
The TXC-44152 transceiver provides two video inputs including a
quad-mode input port supporting HDMI 1.4b, DisplayPort 1.2, MHL™ 2.0,
and Mobility DisplayPort (MyDP) 1.0. The TXC-44152 has been optimized
for projectors and pico projectors by providing a 48b LVTTL parallel
output enabling video formats up to and including 4K2K and 3DFHD.
“InFocus continues to raise the bar in projector and display performance
with unparalleled image clarity and world-class interactive
capabilities,” said Louis Hindman, manager of Product Development at
InFocus. “We are very pleased to be working closely with TranSwitch to
leverage its innovative HDplay solutions for more versatile connectivity
across a variety of standards. This technology collaboration will help
deliver an enhanced user experience and provide yet another point of
differentiation for our world-class multimedia products.”
“We are excited to collaborate with InFocus on this series of new
projector models,” said Tim Blanke, vice president of worldwide sales
and marketing at TranSwitch. “Our unique HDplay solutions enable easy
integration of multiple connectivity standards simplifying both design
and production. By working together, we believe that the next-generation
of InFocus products will enable users in a multitude of applications,
including education, enterprise, and entertainment, to easily connect to
a wide range of source devices.”
TranSwitch’s HDplay transceivers leverage the Company’s unique MHDP™
technology to combine HDMI, DisplayPort, MyDP and MHL functionality in a
single IC. This level of integration helps manufacturers reduce design
complexity, cost, space requirements and time-to-market. HDplay also
utilizes TranSwitch’s patented AnyCable™ technology, enabling the user
to confidently select long and inexpensive cables while maintaining HDMI
1.4 performance.
