Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT®; NASDAQ: IDTI), the
Analog and Digital Company™ delivering essential mixed-signal
semiconductor solutions, today announced that the IDT VDAP1000
PowerSmart Display Panel Controller has won the prestigious EDN
Innovation Award in the Application-Specific Standard Products
(ASSP) category.
“We are honored to see our product win EDN Magazine’s Innovation
Award. It is a clear demonstration of solid execution, commitment
to innovation, and the success of our integration and power
management strategy,” said Dr. Ted Tewksbury, president and chief
executive officer at Integrated Device Technology. “The VDAP1000 is
the first analog power management and LED backlighting chip to be
fully integrated with a digital timing controller into a single
device. IDT’s innovative power management capabilities coupled with
a strong digital foundation put us in a unique position to solve
complex system-level problems to benefit our customers.”
IDT’s award-winning device, the VDAP1000, is the industry’s
first monolithic mixed-signal total system solution for TFT LCD
panels, such as those used in tablet PCs, notebooks, and netbooks.
This innovative device from IDT integrates power management and a
four-channel LED backlight driver with a full-function low-voltage
differential signaling (LVDS) timing controller. Traditionally,
these three functions were served by three different chips. The
VDAP1000, however, integrates all three functions onto a single
chip, saving precious board space, system power, and cost –
enabling system architects to design the industry’s most compact
and efficient portable devices. In addition, the IDT VDAP1000
features spread spectrum technology to reduce electromagnetic
interference (EMI), improving signal integrity and system
performance.
The VDAP1000 EDN award complements the recent award from
Electronic Engineering and Product World (EEPW) for IDT’s 90E2x
family of wide-dynamic range power metering ICs. For more
