Description

The VIN131 is a highly integrated LCD controller board that interfaces digital DVI and Analog RGB video inputs in virtually any format to a flat-panel display.

The VIN131 is optimised for high-performance, value line, flat-panel monitors.

The VIN131 includes Fail Safe, a unique feature that provides full plug-'n -play VESA compatibility without requiring a Frame Buffer. Sufficient buffer memory is included in the Image Processors (Pixelworks PW131A) to allow Pixel-Rate Conversion, reducing the output clock rate to extend the display system compatibility.

Computer images from VGA to SXGA can be rendered to fit on a target display device with any resolution, up to SXGA.

Optimisation circuitry. This creates sharp and clear images, centred on the screen, without user intervention.

The VIN13 supports NTSC or PAL RGB - Y/Cb,Cr video data with a 4:3 aspect ratio and 16:9 aspect ratio sources, such as DVD or HDTV, integrates YUV to RGB conversion and de-interlacing; it also includes a PWM output for backlight control.

The VIN131 include light sensor for automatic backlight control and temperature sensor for programmable fan control.
