PS8651V for Automotive Infotainment, Docks and Accessories

Parade Technologies, Ltd. (Taiwan OTC: 4966.TWO), a leading high-speed interface, video display, and touch controller IC supplier, announces the availability of PS8651V DP 2.1a/HBR3 1:2 MST hub controller for automotive, accessories and video display designs that need DP/eDP port expansion. It adds to Parade’s DP MST Hub solutions which include the PS8650 DP 2.1a/UHBR20 1:4 MST hub controller already on the market.

The PS8651V is compliant with VESA DisplayPort v2.1a and eDP 1.5 specifications up to HBR3 or 8.1Gbps/lane link rate, up to 4 lanes. It is AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (-40°C to +105°C ambient temperature) qualified for automotive applications. The DP receiver supports MST (Multi-Stream Transport) and SST (Single Stream Transport) modes. The two transmitters each can support DP 2.1a / eDP 1.5 and are capable of MST (Multi-Stream Transport) and SST (Single Stream Transport) modes and single video split of a super frame in SST input mode as well as lane count/link rate conversion. It is VESA DSC 1.2a (Display Stream Compression) decode and compressed video pass-through capable.

PS8651V provides flexible port expansion for DP and eDP connections. Its low power design eases thermal design constraints in automotive applications, eliminating the need for a heat sink. The PS865x MST hub family complements Parade’s TC1316V eDP Touch and Tcon Embedded Driver and PS8461V DisplayPort Retimer with 2:1 inputs mux products in automotive infotainment display systems.

“PS8651V DP 2.1a/HBR3 1:2 MST hub controller expands DP/eDP ports for automotive in-vehicle entertainment displays or supports pillar-to-pillar ultra-wide screen and can also be implemented in docks, accessories and display applications,” says Jimmy Chiu, Executive VP of Marketing at Parade Technologies. “Parade’s comprehensive DP 2.1a product portfolio now includes PS865x MST hubs and can readily support customer application needs and implementations with great ease of design.”

Availability

The PS8651V is mass production ready now. It is available in a 9.5mm x 13.5mm 102-pin QFN package.
