NXP introduces full-featured HDMI and DVI level converters

Technology Cover
投稿日: 2023-03-13, NXP

The PTN3360B is a high speed level converter that converts four-channel low-amplitude AC-coupled differential input signals into DVI v1.0 and HDMI v1.3a compatible leak-open current-directed differential output signals up to 2.5 Gbit/s per channel. Each of these channels provides a level-shift differential buffer to convert from a low-swing AC-coupled differential signal at the source to a tmds type DC-coupled differential current mode signal, terminating at 50 Ω to 3.3V at the receiver.

The PTN3360B is also a full-featured HDMI and DVI level converter. It is functionally comparable to the PTN3300A, but with higher speed performance and greater ESD robustness. PTN3360B is also equivalent to PTN3360A except that PTN3360B provides non-reverse level shift on the HPD channel. The PTN3360B is powered by a single 3.3V power supply with low power consumption (typical power is 120 mW) and is packaged with 48 terminals HVQFN48.


In addition, the PTN3360B provides a single-ended active buffer for converting the HPD signal from a 5v voltage at the receiver to a 3.3V voltage at the source, and a channel for level conversion in the DDC channel (consisting of clock and data lines) between the 3.3V source and 5v receiver ends. DDC channels are implemented using gate technology, providing level drift and clock and data line disabling (isolation between source and receiver).


The PTN3360B's low-swing AC coupled differential input signals typically come from a display source with multi-mode I/O that supports multiple display standards, such as DisplayPort, HDMI, and DVI. Although the input differential signals are configured to carry DVI or HDMI-encoded data, they do not meet the electrical requirements of the DVI v1.0 or HDMI v1.3a specifications. By using the PTN3360B, chipset vendors are able to implement this reconfigurable I/O on multi-mode display source devices, allowing support for multiple display standards while keeping the number of chipset I/O pins low. See the picture below


           


The PTN3360B main high-speed differential channel has a low-swing self-biased differential input conforming to the electrical specifications of DisplayPort standard v1.1 and/or PCI Express standard v1.1, and leak-current flow conforming to the electrical specifications of DVI v1.0 and HDMI v1.3a to the differential output. i2c bus channel level conversion DDC signals are between 3.3V (source) and 5.0V (receiver).
