Dual-DSI converter chipset drives up to 4K Ultra HD video
Toshiba has launched a 4K HDMI to MIPI dual-DSI converter chipset with video format conversion.
The new IC drives up to 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 pixels) at a refresh rate of 30fps with a dual-DSI interface. It also supports WQXGA (2560x1600) at 60fps and full HD resolutions at 120fps.
Its low latency is said to enhance real time gaming applications and virtual reality products with high resolution LCD displays.
The TC358870XBG also supports conversion of HDMI audio input stream to I2S, TDM, or SLIMbu, allowing use in a range of applications.
The chipset is supplied in an FBGA80 package (7 x 7mm with 0.65mm ball pitch). Sample shipments will start from the end of April, with mass production scheduled for September.
