Digital Blocks Extends the DB9000 TFT LCD Controller IP Core Family with the availability of the DB9000AXI for the AMBA 3.0 Interconnect

Specifically targeted for large resolution TFT LCD panels and the ARM AMBA 3.0 AXI Bus, the DB9000AAX is an out-of-the-box synthesizable soft IP Core for display system designers.

GLEN ROCK, New Jersey -- Nov 18, 2008 – Digital Blocks, a leading developer of silicon-proven semiconductor Intellectually Property (IP) soft cores for embedded processor and video system designers, today announces the DB9000AXI TFT LCD Controller IP Core. The DB9000AXI IP Core targets systems-on-chip (SoC) ASSP and ASIC designs containing embedded processors and the AMBA 3.0 AXI on-chip bus and system requirements for a TFT LCD panel.

The DB9000AXI IP Core specifically and cost-effectively targets TFT LCD panels with 1 Port of 18-bit digital (6-bits/color) or 24-bit digital (8-bits/color) interface or a 2 Port interface, with each port up to 24-bit digital (8-bits/color). The DB9000AXI, with its 64-bit AXI interface and programmable 2 Port TFT LCD Panel Interface, specifically targets high resolution displays.

While the DB9000AXI targets high resolution TFT LCD panels, the range of programming parameters permit support for a wide range of LCD panel resolutions. Representative examples are as follows:
