Overview

The Multiport/Multiprotocol HDCP 2.2/2.3 Embedded Security Modules (ESMs) are autonomous modules that provide designers with complete and robust transmitter (TX), receiver (RX) and repeater (Rep) implementations of the HDCP 2.3 content protection technology over HDMI 2.1/2.0, DisplayPort 2.0/1.4, and USB 3.x Type-C wired connections. These solutions help designers shorten development cycles and fully meet the stringent security requirements of the DCP LLC licensing authority. The ESMs are compact, energy efficient, and can be configured to accommodate different high-resolution, uncompressed content streams, such as HD and Ultra HD.

The HDCP 2.3 ESMs are designed to support up to four ports. They protect HD and Ultra HD uncompressed audio-visual content and are fully compliant with the HDCP 2.3 standard for HDMI - and DisplayPort-based systems. The self-contained cores include all the necessary components required to meet the HDCP 2.3 specification such as key-stream generation, content encryption and decryption, authentication and key exchange, and system renewability. The HDCP 2.3 ESMs can be delivered independently or pre-integrated with the vendor's controllers.

VESA Adaptive-Sync V2 Operation in DisplayPort VIP

In a computer system, both the GPU as well as the monitor have a certain rate at which they render or update an image, respectively. The rate is nothing but the frequency at which the image is refreshed (updated in the image it shows/displays), usually expressed in hertz, and can vary based on the content displayed on the screen.

DisplayPort 2025: Navigating the Next Wave of Display Innovation

This article breaks down the latest DisplayPort trends, the key technological shifts driving the protocol forward, and the strategic challenges implementers need to navigate — especially as DisplayPort IP finds its way into increasingly safety-critical domains.

Audio Transport in DisplayPort VIP

DisplayPort uses Secondary Data Packets (SDPs), which are transported over the Main-Link that are not main video stream data. This allows it to carry audio and video simultaneously. The VIP supports audio transmission both in the original mode as defined in the specification as well as just as any other SDP being transmitted.
