DisplayPort 1.4 FEC Transmitter (Tx) ASIL-B

Overview

The DisplayPort Forward Error Correction (FEC) Transmitter IP Core implements Reed-Solomon FEC and symbol interleaving as specified by the VESA DisplayPort 1 .4 specification. It contains additional safety features to detect and report transient or permanent faults in order to meet the high level of safety required by automotive applications. The IP core is ASIL-B ready, as per the ISO 26262 standard.

ASIL-B certified solution for automotive applications

Key Features

  • VESA DisplayPort 1.4 compliant
  • Reed-Solomon RS (254,250) FEC, 10-bit symbols
  • Two-way interleaving for 1-, 2- and 4-lane modes (4-lane mode requires 2 FEC IP core instances)
  • DisplayPort main 8b/10b encoder included (Tx only)
  • Status and control can be done with signals or optionally via an integrated APB register module (Rx)
  • Single unified APB interface supports 4-lane mode (Rx)
