Preliminary Product Brief gm2116
C2116-PBR-01A
The gm2116 device is an all-in-one image processor targeted for
the OnPanel LCD monitor market with resolutions up to XGA.
The gm2116 leverages Genesis patented advanced imageprocessing technology and a proven integrated ADC/PLL to
provide excellent image quality in simple and cost-effective
solution. The integrated OnPanel timing controller (TCON) is
fully programmable to interface with a wide range of
commercially available LCD panels. A dual channel RSDS
(reduced swing differential signaling) 6 or 8 bit transmitter is
provided for direct connect to column drivers with RSDS inputs.
This high level of integration reduces the number of
components, which eliminates a PCB along with its associated
connectors and cables. This reduces system cost, improves
reliability and simplifies monitor design.
