JAJSG74C February 2012 – September 2018 DS90C187
PRODUCTION DATA.
Different color mapping options exist. Check with the color mapping of the Deserializer / TCON device that is used to ensure compatible mapping for the application. The DS90C187 supports three modes of operation for single and dual pixel applications supporting either 24bpp or 18bpp color depths.
In the Dual Pixel / 24bpp mode, eight LVDS data lines are provided along with two LVDS clock lines (8D+2C). The Deserializer may utilize one or two clock lines. The 53 bit interface typically assigns 24 bits to RGB for the odd pixel, 24 bits to RGB for the even pixel, 3 bits for the video control signals (HS, VS and DE), 1 bit for odd pixel and 1 bit for even pixel which can be ignored or used for general purpose data, control or L/R signaling.
A reduced width input interface is also supported with a Single-to-Dual Pixel conversion where the data is presented at double rate (same clock edge, 2X speed, see ) and the DE transition is used to flag the first pixel. Also note in both 8D+2C configurations, the three video control signals are sent over both the A and B outputs. The DES / TCON may recover one set, or both depending upon its implementation. The Dual Pixel / 24bpp 8D+2C LVDS Interface Mapping is shown in .
A Dual Pixel / 18bpp mode is also supported. In this configuration OA3 and OB3 LVDS output channels are placed in TRI-STATE® to save power. Their respective inputs are ignored. (Figure 15)
In the Single Pixel / 24bpp mode, four LVDS data lines are provided along with a LVDS clock line (4D+C). The 28 bit interface typically assigns 24 bits to RGB color data, 3 bits to video control (HS, VS and DE) and one spare bit can be ignored, used for L/R signaling or function as a general purpose bit. The Single Pixel / 24bpp 4D+C LVDS Interface Mapping is shown in .
A Single Pixel / 18bpp mode is also supported. In this configuration the OA3 LVDS output channel is placed in TRI-STATE® to save power. Its respective inputs are ignored. (Figure 17)
