Overview

The DisplayPort Link Policy Maker (LPM) is a DisplayPort 1.4/2.0 compliant software stack that manages and controls the DisplayPort serial link and AUX channel communications. The software provides for enumeration and configuration of the source and sink devices, adaptive training of the DisplayPort link, video stream allocation and transmission, AUX channel traffic management and handling of all HPD (Hot Plug Detect) events.

The link policy maker integrates seamlessly with Trilinear’s HDCP, MST and Audio management software stacks.

Link training establishes a high-speed data link between the source and sink device. The main link can be configured from one to four lanes and operates between 1.62Ghz and 20Ghz, dependent on the revision of DisplayPort that is supported by the system.

The Link Policy Maker stack can be manually configured or provided with the system bandwidth requirements and allowed to automatically select the optimized settings for the link and the link controller core.

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.

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.

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.
