Product Brief
SiI9204
VastLane HDMI Transmitter PHY
Low-power, dual-mode HDMI™ 1.3 / MHL™ transmitter PHY for high-
definition consumer electronics
The VastLane™ SiI9204 is a dual-mode HDMI/MHL transmitter PHY designed for home-
theater applications, consumer electronics and high-end mobile devices. Together with
Silicon Image’s digital link layer IP core that is integrated in the device’s system-on-a-chip
(SoC), the SiI9204 PHY enables SoC suppliers to offer a low-cost yet extremely powerful
HDMI solution in a single SoC design. Coupled with a full featured SoC, the SiI9204 can
provide support for high-end HDMI 1.3 features such as high bit-rate audio and x.v.Color.
With its SiI9002 compatibility mode, the SiI9204 is also attractive for those Silicon Image
customers who already combine their SoCs with the SiI9002 PHY.
Applications
• Blu-ray Disc
Players and
Recorders
• High-Definition
Set-Top Boxes
• Personal Video
Recorders
Key Features
• Dual-mode HDMI
1.3 and MHL
• Supports Deep
Color
• Integrated CEC
The SiI9204 PHY simplifies high-speed mixed
signal design by resolving many of the design
challenges faced by consumer electronics SoC
suppliers. The SiI9204 PHY supports a 12-bit
dual-edge digital interface to the SoC that
reduces SoC I/O requirements. Its integrated
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) signifi-
cantly reduces the bill-of-materials cost.
The SiI9204 PHY is capable of supporting color
depths and resolutions up to 36-bit Deep Color
@ 1080p/60.
The SiI9204 transmitter PHY combined with
Silicon Image’s SoC-integrated link layer IP
allows for shorter design cycles, simplified test-
ing and faster compliance versus full transmitter
integration. Silicon Image’s solution provides
benefits of both approaches: lower bill-of-mate-
rials cost than discrete transmitter implementa-
tions and faster time-to-market and less chip I/O
than full transmitter integration into the SoC.
