Business Wire
Fairchild Semiconductor�s (NYSE:FCS) FSHDMI04 high-definition
multi-media interface (HDMI) switch has been selected by Xiamen
Overseas Chinese Electronic Co. Ltd. (XOCECO) for use in its new
42-inch LCD TV (model LC-42FY27). A leading multi-national
manufacturer and exporter of consumer electronics, Shanghai-based
XOCECO chose the FSHDMI04 for its industry-leading protection
features, high-bandwidth and low power consumption. Another key
selection factor was Fairchild�s HDMI pre-testing support that
resulted in the XOCECO TV easily attaining HDMI certification.
�Fairchild�s FSHDMI04, with intra-pair skew of 55pS typical (under
1.65Gbps), high 8kV ESD performance and low quiescent current
consumption of only 1�A max, was integral in helping our LCD TV
pass the stringent HDMI tests that led to our certification,� said
Mr. Lin, XOCECO�s R&D manager. �In addition to providing us
with advanced switch technology, Fairchild provided a
pre-compliance testing lab in Shanghai that prepared us to pass the
rigorous HDMI test at the Authorized Testing Center (ATC) on our
very first attempt.� When used in media systems with dual
interfaces, the FSHDMI04 HDMI switch allows the application to
connect to two other video sources such as DVDs, game consoles and
set-top boxes. By offering HDMI functionality in a single device,
designers can use the FSHDMI04 to easily add a second HDMI input to
the circuitry of their existing application without resorting to
costly upgrades. Compared to traditional designs that require a
separate receiver to add an HDMI connection, the FSHDMI04
significantly speeds design-cycle times by reducing design
complexity. �Our FSHDMI04 switch was specifically designed to offer
the ESD protection and excellent signal quality necessary for
meeting the growing demand for HDMI-enabled products,� said Patty
Miske, switch marketing manager for Fairchild�s Analog Products
Group. �We are delighted that our switch played a role in allowing
XOCECO to meet the specification for HDMI, which, according to
In-Stat, is experiencing �record growth� with HDMI-enabled device
shipments predicted to grow to 78 percent per year through 2010.[1]
This certification will dramatically increase the marketability of
XOCECO�s product as HDMI becomes more prevalent in the electronics
market.� For information about the FSHDMI04, please go to:
