Press Release
THine and Altera enter partnership to support V-by-One® HS Interface
Tokyo (Julyne 7, 2009) – THine Electronics, Inc. (JASDAQ:6769), the global leader in high-speed serial interface and provider of mixed-signal LSI for flat panel displays, announced today that it is turning to FPGAs to support its high-speed serial interface, V-by-One HS. Altera Corporation has partnered with THine to offer a V-by-One IP reference design on Altera's FPGAs which include family support from Altera's Arria® and Stratix® series devices.
Developed for the television display market, THine's V-by-One® HS offers higher resolution and clearer picture quality while lowering the total cost of internal cables and connectors. The advanced high-speed interface is essential for applications with high-speed data transmission such as next generation flat panel displays and multi-functional printers.
“The demand for high definition and better quality images has prompted television set makers and display panel vendors to look at advanced interface technology to meet the growing need," said Mr. John Sakamoto, senior director of application business units at Altera. "Adding V-by-One® HS capability in our FPGA addresses this need and enables our customers to begin V-by-One® development today.”
“Since 2008, THine's V-by-One® HS technical specification has been widely accepted by the global markets," said Mr. Masahiro Kato, senior vice president, THine Electronics, Inc. "Television makers and panel vendors will benefit from our partnership with Altera by accelerating their time to market and differentiating their designs with Altera’s FPGAs and THine's V-by-One® HS.”
