Intel now offers a fully VESA-compliant DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP core v1.4. The DisplayPort IP core is found prevalently in many video-related products servicing a wide variety of applications and has the following features:
DisplayPort is a high-speed serial interface standard for video and audio supported by industry leaders in broadcast, consumer, medical, industrial, and military applications. It is primarily used to connect video sources to display devices like computer monitors.
The DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP core has the following advantages:
- Higher bandwidth with DisplayPort v1.4
- Royalty-free standard
- Data transmission on all four lanes
- Latching cable to physically secure connection
- Multi-Stream Transport to run multiple monitors from a single cable
The VESA-certified DisplayPort Intel FPGA IP core implements a receiver and transmitter per lane with 1, 2, or 4 differential data lanes at 1.62, 2.7, 5.4, or 8.1 Gbps. HDCP-encrypted transmission can also be integrated into our IP through the newly released Intel® FPGA HDCP core. DSC can also be integrated into our IP through one of Intel's partners.
