Interfaces
Supporting the interface transition
Computing devices continue to transition to ever higher data rate interfaces to support the need for ever greater multimedia experiences and mobility. Our upgradable products are developed to allow core applications such as desktops and laptops to interface with both legacy and next generation devices. At the same time, users still need to connect to older peripherals such as printers, monitors, projectors, and portable drives, which may utilize legacy standards such as VGA, LVDS, or DVI.
Supporting designers in managing this trend, NXP's interface products support legacy technologies as well as the latest digital interface standards such as DisplayPort 1.2, USB3.0, SAS/SATA 6G, PCIe Gen 3, and some of the newer, evolving 10Gbs requirements.
Video interfaces
NXP offers a complete range of protocol converter products to bridge between DisplayPort and legacy display standards, such as VGA and LVDS. A family of DisplayPort level shifters and multiplexers for motherboard or dongle applications are also available to permit designers to seamlessly connect with standards such as DVI or HDMI.
Data transfer interfaces
From SAS /SATA 6G and PCIe Gen 3 to DDR3 and USB 3.0, NXP's portfolio of high-speed mux/demux switches and redrivers meet the performance and speed requirements of next-generation systems and ensure signal integrity is maintained over ever longer distances.
System management interfaces
Server, desktop and notebook computer designers will recognize the benefits of NXP's I2C system management portfolio. Offering data rates up to 1 MHz developments such as I2C Fast-mode, help improve the boot up times of next generation platforms.
