Overview
California Micro Devices introduces
the CM2006, a highly integrated Application Specific Integrated
Passive™ (ASIP™) device that provides
the industry’s first complete interface solution for VGA and
DVI-I ports for digital consumer electronics and PC peripheral applications
such as digital TVs and LCD monitors. The CM2006 replaces 22 analog
and passive components with a single, compact package. The CM2006
offers designers a simple, reliable, space saving and cost effective
alternative to discrete implementations. The device provides space
savings up to 55 percent and solution cost savings of 33 percent
while improving ESD performance.
The CM2006 provides 8kV of electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection
as well as backdrive protection for all 7 data lines. In addition,
the CM2006 integrates Schmitt-triggered buffers for the SYNC signals
and level shifting NFETs for the DDC lines.

Features
The CM2006 is placed between the video
graphics controller of an LCD monitor or digital TV, and the analog
video output (VGA or DVI-I connector). The CM2006 integrates several
critical functions that are typically implemented using many discrete
analog and passive devices:
- Robust ESD protection on all 7 VGA
signals per IEC61000-4-2 Level 4 (±8kV contact, ±15kV
air discharge);
- Very low capacitive load from ESD
protection diodes on VIDEO lines, 3pF maximum;
- Backdrive protection on all lines;
- Schmitt triggered, non-inverting
input buffers for HSYNC and VSYNC lines;
- Integrated bidirectional level shifting
N-channel FETs for DDC Clock and Data;
- VESA VSIS Version 1 Revision 2 compatible
interface.
