Panel Displays at SID 2006
Highly Integrated ESD and EMI Solutions
for High Definition
Flat Panel TVs and Mobile Handset Displays
SAN Francisco, Calif., -- June 5, 2006
-- California
Micro Devices (NASDAQ: CAMD), a leading supplier of application specific
analog semiconductor products for mobile handsets, personal computers
and digital consumer electronics, will be showcasing its popular Application
Specific Integrated Passive™ (ASIP™) solutions
for digital television, flat panel monitor and mobile handset applications
at the Society for Information Display 2006 International Symposium, Seminar
and Exhibition in San Francisco, California from June 6 through 8.
CMD Presenting at SID Exhibitors’
Forum
Olivier Brecheteau, Director of Marketing for Mobile Products will be
presenting at the SID Exhibitors’ Forum on Wednesday, June 7th at
9:00 AM. His presentation will focus on CMD’s unique Praetorian®
EMI filter technology.
Designed Into Leading Digital Consumer
Electronics and Mobile Applications
California Micro Devices’ ASIP™
solutions are designed into a broad range of leading digital flat panel
TVs, flat panel monitors and mobile handsets, providing the industry’s
highest levels of electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection and electromagnetic
interference (EMI) filtering, along with other functions such as signal
termination and level shifting.
MediaGuard™
HDMI Port Protection for Digital TV
The CM2020 and CM2021 MediaGuard™
HDMI port protectors provide a complete port protection and signal integrity
solution in a single integrated chip. Optimized for high speed layout
on low-cost boards, including thin dielectric and 2-layer boards, these
devices integrate ESD protection, backdrive protection, overcurrent protection
and voltage level translation. They are designed to support the latest
HDMI features including greater than 1.65 Gbps data rates, multiple port
systems, extended cable lengths and CEC support.
PhotonIC™ LED Drivers for
Wireless Handsets
CMD will be displaying its newest capabilities
in LED drivers for mobile phones. As advanced multimedia features become
increasingly accepted, brighter displays and high intensity camera flash
become key requirements. CMD’s PhotonIC™ product
offering, including charge pump and inductor boost architectures, provides
power efficiency, cost effectiveness and maximum space savings. Its innovative
FlexBoost™ technology supplies asymmetric voltage outputs,
providing significant power savings for the lighting subsystem.
Praetorian® EMI Filters for Wireless
Handsets
Praetorian®
EMI filter arrays are designed for the latest multimedia enabled wireless
handsets with high data rates between the baseband processor and high
resolution displays and cameras. Groundbreaking Praetorian®
process technology allows the integration of spiral inductors with capacitors
and ESD protection diodes in a single chip design, providing superior
EMI filtering, high cutoff frequencies, minimal insertion loss, sharp
rolloff and greater levels of attenuation at high frequencies.
Other Booth Highlights
Other major applications that California Micro
Devices will be presenting include:
- ESD solutions featuring the PicoGuard™ CM1213 family of ESD diode arrays, providing up to 8 channels of 8kV contact ESD protection in a single package, with only 1pF of capacitance - the industry’s lowest capacitance diode arrays for DVI, HDMI, USB, serial ATA and IEEE 1394 ports.
- Centurion™ EMI filters for wireless handset high speed color LCD interfaces. California Micro Devices’ proprietary Centurion™ advanced zener process technology provides enhanced EMI filtering performance, greater ESD protection and dramatically lower capacitance levels than traditional solutions.
