High Speed Serial Display Controllers and LED Lighting Protection to be Highlighted

SAN ANTONIO, June 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- 47th SID 2009 Display Week, Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, San Antonio, Texas, CMD Booth # 675 -- California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) will be showcasing its display controller solutions based on the Mobile Digital Display Interface (MDDI) and Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI(R)) standards for mobile handsets and its LuxGuard ESD protection solutions for LED lighting applications at the 47th SID 2009 International Symposium, Seminar and Exhibition Display Week from June 2nd through 4th.

Display Controller Solutions

CMD will be demonstrating its portfolio of serial interface display controllers supporting both MDDI and MIPI(R) based standards. The CM5100 MDDI based serial client features an integrated display controller with embedded memory that supports primary thin film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal displays (LCDs) with resolutions up to QVGA. The CM5160 bridge controller permits handsets that utilize CPUs and application processors with on-chip MDDI compatible hosts to interface to liquid crystal display (LCD) modules incorporating either MDDI or MIPI(R) based clients. The CM5210 utilizes a RAM-less MIPI(R) Type 4 video mode interface and can support MIPI(R) display module applications up to WXGA.

LuxGuard ESD Protection Devices

CMD will also be demonstrating and will present a paper on its LuxGuard family of solutions for ESD protection and thermal management for high power, high brightness LED lighting applications. LuxGuard provides customers popular design options that can fit seamlessly into existing architectures while leveraging CMD's extensive technical, manufacturing and product capabilities. A pioneer in the development of ESD protection circuits for high power ultra high brightness (UHB) LED applications, CMD has shipped more than 300 million units to customers since 2001.
