Innosilicon eDP TX PHY is designed to transmit video, audio, and auxiliary data from a system host device to a display device for display applications.
Innosilicon eDP TX PHY contains a digital logic and a physical layer.
? The digital logic receives video, audio, and auxiliary data from the controller and outputs these data to the physical layer for further process.
? The physical layer contains the main link, the AUX channel, PLL, and bias circuit.
? The main link contains 4 high speed data channels to transmit video and other stream data. Each data channel consists of a serializer and a driver. The serializer converts the parallel input data to 1-bit high speed serial stream and the driver converts the digital serial data to low swing differential signals with typical AC-coupled connection. The data rate is up to 8.1Gbps per channel.
? The AUX channel employs half-duplex, bidirectional link to transmit and receive auxiliary information, such as EDID information and link status, between a transmitter and a receiver device.
? The PLL generates the clocks required by data channels and the digital logic.
? The bias circuit generates voltage and current reference.
