Testing Services
Simplay Labs LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Silicon Image, Inc., one of the Founders of the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) specification and operates both HDMI Authorized Testing Centers (HDMI ATCs) and its own Simplay HD™ testing centers.
The difference?
HDMI ATCs test for compliance to the HDMI specification,
primarily for protocol and signal handling.
Simplay HD testing centers test for product performance and interoperability using the Simplay HD test specification. The Simplay HD testing specification is more robust and includes plug testing of multiple device types. In fact, products submitted for Simplay HD testing must first undergo and pass HDMI ATC testing.
