DisplayPort to DVI™/HDMI Level Shifter

High-Speed DisplayPort to DVI/HDMI Level Shifter

Viewing:

Overview

  • 500mV Differential HDMI Output at 2Gbps Data Rate
  • 350ps Propagation Delay
  • 20ps Channel-to-Channel Skew at 2Gbps
  • Low Jitters: DJ = 11psP-P and RJ = 0.5psRMS
  • Bidirectional Level Shifter of 5V to 3.3V for DDC Pins
  • Level Shifter of 5V to 3.3V for I/Os
  • Integrated 50Ω Input Terminations and Biasing
  • -40°C to +85°C Operating Temperature Range

The MAX9406 high-speed, low-skew, quad differential input to current-mode logic (CML) translator features high-speed signal conversion of the DisplayPort™ (DP) to High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) technology. This device features ultra-low propagation delay of 350ps and channel-to-channel skew of less than 20ps. The MAX9406 supports typical data rates of 2Gbps.

The MAX9406 provides the level shift for HDMI's Display Data Channel (DDC) and hot-plug detection (HPD), which converts the 5V single-ended logic to 3.3V single-ended logic.

The MAX9406 operates from a 3V to 3.6V core supply and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range. This device is available in 48-pin, 7mmx 7mm thin QFN and 32-pin, 5mm x 5mm thin QFN packages.

Product Details

The MAX9406 PCIe®-To-HDMI™ evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested circuit board that demonstrates the capabilities of the MAX9406 DisplayPort™ to DVI™/HDMI level shifter. The correct version of the Intel graphics chipset driver and video BIOS need to be installed properly to use the MAX9406 EV kit.

The MAX9406 EV kit should be plugged into a PCI Express® (PCIe) bus slot on a PC that supports DisplayPort as defined by VESA, such as Intel's Eaglelake/Cantiga chipset with an integrated graphics controller.

The MAX9406 EV kit PCB comes with a MAX9406ETJ+ installed (32-pin thin QFN package with an exposed pad).

Applications

  • ATE
  • Backplane Data and Clock Distribution
  • Base Stations
  • Data and Clock Driver and Buffer
  • Level Conversion for DP to HDMI
