HDMI Switch IC / Buffer IC

Amid the variety of full HD devices centered around high-definition broadcast reception HDMI has emerged as the de facto transmission standard for connecting devices. ROHM has developed the worlds first HDMI switch IC/buffer IC capable of stable video output even with 20m long cables. The goal was to provide a monolithic solution integrating specialized circuitry that restores decayed signal waveforms in large televisions and monitors along with a switch for HDMI terminal devices.

Stable HDMI transmission, even in large screen TVs and monitors

The inclusion of HDMI terminals in various locations on TVs and monitors has become more and more commonplace. This, along with the increasing size of screens, has in many cases made the distance between the image processor and the HDMI receiver farther, resulting in greater noise and EMI generation, necessitating buffer ICs, especially in large TVs (32to 40and above).
Features of ROHMs HDMI switch IC/buffer IC:

Restores degraded video signals

In many cases cables with lengths far exceeding 10m may be required for wall mounting thin-screen TVs or installing projectors on the ceiling. However, the longer the cable transmission length the greater the RF waveform decay, possibly resulting in incorrect transmission. In response to this ROHM integrates an equalizer that restores the deteriorated input waveform to its original state (Figure 1), enabling compatibility with 20m cables.

Easy content protection

With HDMI transmission hot plug verification and code key exchange are performed approximately every two seconds. In addition, a content protection function called HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is built in to prevent illegal copying. ROHM also integrates a DDC buffer that performs waveform shaping for stable HDCP operation and easy compliance (Figure 2).

HDMI as easy to use as USB

HDMI requires high ESD resistance since it is an external interface and insertions and removals are relatively common. ROHM provides ESD resistance exceeding 10kV (HBM), reducing the number of components required.

The future of HDMI switch/buffer ICs

As the number of HDMI-compatible devices increases comes a demand for more input terminals. ROHM meets this growing need by providing for a greater number of terminals. Memory is also integrated for recording image and sound metadata called EDID

Energy Saving! ECO Devices

Using ROHM ECO Devices save energy and reduce CO 2 generation

Reduces power consumption and prolongs battery life

Compact, low ON-resistance 1.5V Drive MOSFETs

1.5V drive MOSFETs for portable devices

ECOMOS series
ROHMs ECOMOS is a power MOSFET specifically designed for use in the power circuits of portable devices. Special emphasis was made to reduce power consumption by significantly reducing ON-resistance during operation for longer battery life. Every effort was made to minimize environmental impact, including the use of halogen-free resins.

Power MOSFET requirements

Portable device development has reached a point where a dizzying array of functions is built into a device no bigger than a palm. Compact, lightweight, and long battery life have become much more than mere catchwords they often spell the difference between success and failure for a portable product in the highly competitive consumer electronics sector. ROHM offers components that meet these needs without sacrificing functionality or reliability.

Low 1.5V drive

Conventional ON/OFF switches in 1.5V power lines use step-up drives with level shift circuits or bipolar transistors to drive 1.8V or 2.5V power MOSFETs, increasing power consumption. However, ROHM, through process optimization, has achieved a Gate-Source voltage drive (VGS) of 1.5V, enabling direct drive from 1.5V lines, reducing not only power consumption but the number of external components. In addition, using low-voltage drive contributes to a reduction in the ON-resistance of other drive voltage regions (VGS = 1.8V/2.5V/4.5V), making it is superior to conventional 1.8V and 2.5V drive power MOSFETs (Figure 1).

Drastically reduced MOSFET ON-resistance

Ideally, the power consumption for power MOSFETs used as ON/ this is not the case due to the internal ON-resistance (P(loss) reducing power consumption. ROHMs ECOMOS series features a submicron cell pitch structure, developed using microfabrication technology. This increases current capacity per unit area to approximately 2.5 times that of conventional products, resulting in lower ON-resistance. The lineup is offered in several voltage ratings for optimum compatibility. OFF switches on power supply lines to circuit blocks 0W. However, = RDS(on) I2). Therefore, reducing ON-resistance is critical for

The BD6095GU/ GUL LED drivers for LCD backlights ensures optimal picture display with minimal energy consumption. A dual-dimming system is employed that varies the brightness not only based on ambient conditions but according to the brightness of the content being displayed as well. The result? Maximum visibility with low power consumption.

The PSML2 package white LEDs for illumination feature an industry-best 7cd brightness in the mid-current range (100mA). Heat dissipation has been greatly improved through utilization of an exposed copper frame with high heat conductivity. The result is a heat dissipation of 60C/W when mounted on an FR-4 substrate, increasing luminance and heat resistance 25% over conventional products.

The RSS, SP8K6, SP8J6, and SP8M6 series represent new additions to ROHM s expansive MOSFET lineup. Designed for lower ON-resistance (Nch/Pch: 20%/40% lower) and featuring a wide current range (Nch: 7-18A, Pch: 4-14A), they are ideal for a wide range of applications, including DC/DC converters, motor drives, inverters, and load switches.

Two PIN diode package arrays are now available HMD8, featuring 8 pins, for up to 4 chips, and HMD12, with 12 pins and up to 6 elements. Employing a unique chip device structure and ultra-precision machining technology makes it possible to arrange different types of diode chips and wiring configurations in a single package, resulting in greater design flexibility.

The BUTA2WNVX series of CMOS LDO regulators for portable devices were designed to deliver stable voltage, even with high load currents. Memory or logic ICs that perform reading, writing, and processing of data based on an operation clock require high load currents when writing data. ROHM utilizes a full CMOS process and optimized high-speed amplifier, resulting in 5 times the load response of conventional products.

03

The LAP/LBP series of LED numerical displays utilizes unique four-element high brightness LEDs, resulting in ten times the brightness of conventional displays (orange light emission ratio) with virtually no luminosity deterioration over a long period, even during continuous use. Restricting current to 1/10th the rated value makes the brightness equivalent to conventional displays, contributing to reduced power consumption. Ideal for a variety of applications, including FA devices, e n t e r t a i n m e n t equipment, and the like.
