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.

Analog-Interface OnPanel XGA LCD Controller with RSDS Transmitter

• RealColor Technology

• High-Quality Advanced Scaling

• Fully programmable zoom ratios

• High-quality shrink capability from UXGA resolution

• RealRecovery function provides full color recovery

image for refresh rates higher than those supported by
the LCD panel (“out of range” signals)

• Analog RGB Input Port

• Supports up to 162 MHz (SXGA 85Hz / UXGA 60Hz)

Note: resolutions and refresh rates higher than those
supported by the panel are supported as recovery modes.
