Overview
Silicon Motion's SM770 high-performance USB Display Interface SoC for universal docking station supports up to three concurrent 4K UHD (3840x2160@60p) displays, leveraging Silicon Motion's innovative CAT™ (Content Adaptive Technology) and employs multiple image and video processing algorithms to compress display data and minimize bandwidth usage to deliver ultra-low latency from the computer to the monitors. By transferring most of the compression work to a hardware accelerator, CAT technology operates more efficiently and reduces the CPU load.
For seamless multi-display extension, the SM770 features the user-friendly InstantView™ software application. This tool effortlessly configures host content for any display without the need for a display driver. Additionally, the SM770 boasts superior compatibility with all major platforms, including the Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, and Linux operating systems. It also includes extensions for Android, ChromeOS, and most popular display brands on the market. Whether in the workplace or at home, the SM770 makes display extension easier and more efficient.
