Key Digital’s cutting-edge Technologies drive our award-winning product solutions.
The result is pristine video images and well-thought-out solutions as only Key Digital®
can deliver. Here’s a summary of the Technologies we’ve engineered into our products:
EDID™(Extended Display ID Data Control)
Key Digital’s EDID control technology is capable of reading and modifying display EDID in order to achieve
user desirable display of video and audio.
HOVO™(Horizontal Offset Vertical Offset)
Developed by Key Digital®to satisfy the stringent DVI and HDMI requirements for correct synchronization of
the video signal to the display.
Key Digital’s®HOVO™circuit is a powerful syncing design that corrects the syncing on these newer
standards and allows for repositioning of these signals to correctly match them to the display.
HDMI PATH™
HDMI transmission technology for a pure signal path eliminating EDID interference.
HDMI switching technology which is transparent to the source from input to output.
IAS™(Intelligent Auto Sense)
Key Digital’s Auto Sensing Circuit automatically senses the active video source and drives it to the display.
The novel IAS circuit built into our products performs seamless input auto switching, delivering crystal-clear
images without signal degradation.
LHBC™(Linear High Bandwidth Circuit)
To deliver the highest-quality video images, all Key Digital®products feature LHBC™, ultra-linear components
with an extremely wide bandwidth in excess of 300 MHz.
These high-bandwidth devices, along with aerospace-designed layouts, assure pristine, high quality video
image free of noise or distortions.
Our rigorous design specifications require over three-times the bandwidth commonly used for HDTV
products.
LSDC™(Lip Sync Delay Compensation)
Digital video processing circuits typically delay the video by several frames, and without correction the audio
and video are typically not aligned, resulting in a very noticeable and annoying lip-sync error.
Key Digital’s LSDC circuitry lets the user correct for the video delay, with a wide degree of correction of 0 – 10
frames, which is enough delay to bring your video and audio back into perfect lip sync alignment.
MBDC™(Micro Balance Dielectric Cable)
Key Digital’s high-quality MBDC digital cables are outstanding for reliable delivery of digital video signals
to a display.
OPEN EYE™
Open Eye performance is verified on each individual cable through vigorous quality control standards.
Real-time HDMI signal “Eye” clean-up technology.
Smart Baluns™
Family of CAT5 Baluns capable of extending Digital Video and Audio, IR, RS-232 and other signals over
single CAT5/6/7 wire.
Enables bi-directional passing of the control signals such as IR or RS-232.
SDS™(Super Digital Scaling)
All-digital scaling.
Takes the video image from 1080p to the native resolution of the display, with no artifacts.
Surface Mount Technology™and Multi-Layer Board Technology™
Circuit boards used in Key Digital®products use the very latest in materials and design, including surface
mount technology, to yield the best possible performance and reliability.
Every Key Digital®product delivers the best possible video image because our Printed Circuit Boards
(PCB’s) are designed by aerospace engineers who are extremely sophisticated at implementing extremely
wideband, low-noise circuits that communicate video signals over long distances without degradation in
signal quality.
