9.4.3 DDC Training for HDMI2.0 Data Rate Monitor

As part of discovery, the source reads the sink’s E-EDID information to understand the sink’s capabilities. Part of this read is HDMI forum vendor specific data block (HF-VSDB) MAX_TMDS_Character_Rate byte to determine the data rate supported. Depending upon the value, the source will write to slave address 0xA8 offset 0x20 bit1, TMDS_CLOCK_RATIO_STATUS. The SNx5DP159 snoops this write to determine the TMDS clock ratio and thus sets its own TMDS_CLOCK_RATIO_STATUS bit accordingly. If a 1 is written, then the TMDS clock is 1/40 of TMDS bit period. If a 0 is written, then the TMDS clock is 1/10 of TMDS bit period. The SNx5DP159 will always default to 1/10 of TMDS bit period unless a 1 is written to address 0xA8 offset 0x20 bit 1. When HPD_SNK is de-asserted, this bit is reset to default values. If the source does not write this bit the SNx5DP159 will not be configured for TMDS clock 1/40 mode in support of HDMI2.0. As the SNx5DP159 is in link but not recognized as part of the link it is possible that the source could read the sink EDID where this bit is set and does not re-write this bit. If the SNx5DP159 has entered a power down state this bit is cleared and does not re-set on a read. To work properly the bit has to be set again with a write by the source.
