MDDI/MIPI display driver targets handsets

The CM5160 is said to be the industry’s first interface bridge IC for Mobile Display Digital Interface (MDDI) and Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) standards. It converts a MDDI client to MIPI host or a CPU output to a MIPI host or creates a WQVGA 24-bit MDDI client (RGB).

The chip permits handsets that use CPUs with MDDI-compatible hosts to interface to LCD modules incorporating either MDDI- or MIPI-based clients. It will generate MIPI DSI pixel stream packets on one or two data lanes, with transfer rates up to 500 Mbits/s and comes in a 128-bump 11 x 12-array wafer-level chip-scale package. ($5 ea/1,000 — samples available now.)
