SLLSFB2 April 2020 TUSB1146
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TUSB1146 supports up to 4 DisplayPort lanes at datarates up to 10 Gbps (UHBR10). The TUSB1146, when configured in DisplayPort mode, monitors the native AUX traffic as it traverses between DisplayPort source and DisplayPort sink. For the purposes of reducing power, the TUSB1146 manages the number of active DisplayPort lanes based on the content of the AUX transactions. The TUSB1146 snoops native AUX writes to DisplayPort sink’s DPCD registers 0x00101 (LANE_COUNT_SET) and 0x00600 (SET_POWER_STATE). TUSB1146 disables/enables lanes based on value written to LANE_COUNT_SET. The TUSB1146 disables all lanes when SET_POWER_STATE is in the D3. Otherwise active lanes will be based on value of LANE_COUNT_SET.
DisplayPort AUX snooping is enabled by default but can be disabled by changing the AUX_SNOOP_DISABLE register. Once AUX snoop is disabled, management of TUSB1146 DisplayPort lanes are controlled through various configuration registers. When TUSB1146 is enabled for GPIO mode (I2C_EN = "0"), the CAD_SNK pin can be used to disable AUX snooping. When CAD_SNK pin is high, the AUX snooping functionality is disabled and all four DisplayPort lanes will be active.
