Introduction
The SiI9135/SiI9235A HDM I Receiver with Enhanced
Audio and Deep Color Outputs is a second-generation
dual-input High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
receiver. It is software-compatible with the SiI9133
receiver, but adds audio support for DTS-HD and Dolby
TrueHD. Digital televisions that can display 10- or 12-bit
color depth can now provide the highest quality protected
digital audio and video over a single cable. The SiI9135
and SiI9135A devices, which are functionally identical,
can receive Deep Color video up to 12-bit, 1080p @ 60
Hz. Backward compatibility with the DVI 1.0
specification all ows HDM I sy stem s to connect to existi ng
DVI 1.0 hosts, such as HD set-top boxes and PCs. Silicon
Image HDM I receive rs use the latest ge neration T ransition
Minimized Differential Signaling (TMDS) core
technology that runs at 25–225 MHz.
The chip comes pre-programmed with High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection (HDCP) keys for receiving
protected audio and video content. This set of keys
simplifies the manufacturing process and lowers costs
while providing the highest level of HDCP key
security.
The SiI9135/SiI9135A receiver can send and receive up
to eight channels of uncompressed di gital audi o at
192 kHz and 2-channel digit al audio up to 192 kHz.
Compressed streams are also suppo rted through ei ther
the S/PDIF port or over I2S for DTS-HD and Dolby
TrueHD. An industry-standard I2S port allows direct
connection to low-cost audio DACs at up to 192 kHz. An
S/PDIF port supports up to 192 kHz audi o. The devi ce
supports Super Audio Compact Disc (SAC D) and
provides Direct Stream Digital (DSD) p orts that support
44.1 and 88.2-kHz one-bit audio.
A low-power standby feature of the SiI9135/SiI9135A
receiver enables flexible power management.
Digital Video Interface
Flexible support for many different standard- and
high-definition vid eo formats (36-bit RGB /
YCbCr 4:4: 4 , 16/20/24-bit YCbC r 4: 2:2, 8/10/12-

Digital Audio Interface
DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD high bit rate audio
Four I2S inputs accept Dolby Digital, DVD-Audio
input (2-ch an nel 192 kHz and 8-channel 192 kHz)
S/PDIF input supports PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS
digital audio transmission (32–192 kHz Fs sample
rate)
IEC60958 or IEC61937 compatible
Flexible, programmable I2S channel mapping
HDCP Decryption
Pre-programmed HDCP keys provide the highest

System Applications
The SiI9135/SiI9135A receiver is designed for AV receivers that require support for HDMI Deep Color and the latest
audio technologies: DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD. The receiver allows receiving 10/12-bit color depth up to 1080p
resolutions. A si ngl e device provides tw o H DM I inp ut po rts. The video o utp ut goes to a video process o r or HDMI
transmitter. Besides DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, the device supports full surround so und audio including DVD -Audio
and SACD. The audio output can go directly to an audio DAC or an audio digital signal processor for further processing.

tab dimensions may vary.
A clearance of at least 0.25 mm should be
provided on the PCB between the edge of
the ePad and the inner edges of the lead
pads to avoid the possibility of electrical
shorts.
