The SiI 9031 is an advanced dual-input HDMI receiver that fits directly into home
theater products, such as A/V receivers and digital televisions (DTVs), including
HDTVs, plasma TVs and LCD TVs. To improve manufacturers’ time-to-market
and reduce design time, the SiI 9031 is backward compatible with first generation
PanelLink receivers. In addition to all the features in the original PanelLink receivers,
the SiI 9031 has two HDMI input ports for connecting both a DVD player and a
set-top box to a single television or A/V receiver. The SiI 9031 supports the
DVD Audio standard including 7.1-surround audio at 96kHz and stereo audio at
192kHz. The SiI 9031 is also the first HDMI receiver to support HDCP Repeater
functionality for applications such as A/V Receivers.
The built-in High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) decryption engine
secures the digital link for transmission of valuable high-definition video and audio.
Each SiI 9031 is pre-programmed with unique HDCP keys,providing the highest level
of security while reducing manufacturing complexity and cost.
