7.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The TDP20MB421 provides signal conditioning to four DP mainlink channels. The device is a linear redriver which is agnostic to DP link training. The DP link training negotiation between a display source and sink stays effective through the device. The redriver becomes part of the electrical channel along with passive traces, cables, and other channel elements, resulting in the optimum source and sink parameters for the best electrical link.

DisplayPort side band signals AUXp,n and HPD are bypassed. The link still has successful link training through TDP20MB421. An inverted HPD signal can control the device standby operation using the PD pin; however, provision for appropriate filtering out of HPD interrupt signals.

In some applications where a microcontroller or other link monitoring device has DP link state information, the microcontroller can exercise I2C registers of TDP20MB421 for additional power management.
