Jul 01, 2005 (TELECOMWORLDWIRE via COMTEX) -- The development of a new QVGA display driver IC (DDI) chip with serial interface technology has been unveiled by Samsung Electronics.

Samsung said its S6D0142 DDI chip includes Qualcomm's Mobile Display Digital Interface (MDDI) technology, which means that fewer wires are needed in the hinge of wireless 3G clamshell handsets to interconnect the LCD display with the Qualcomm Mobile Station Modem (MSM) chipsets.

The reduction in wire requirements reportedly means lower power consumption in slide and clamshell mobile handsets and ensures greater reliability. Samsung said that its S6D0142 also includes 1.3Mb of SRAM, source and gate drivers, timing controller and a power supply IC.
